I hate fairweather Braves Fans


May 6, 2014, 3:55 PM

1. The braves have had longer losing streaks in may and april in both 2010 and 2012 and made the playoffs.

2. Uggla isn't going to be released. He will ride the bench.

3. The Braves org have made huge moves over the last 2 months to retain the services of Heyward, Freeman, Simmons, Johnson, Teheran, and Kimbrel for years to come.

4. The braves upped the pay roll this season and will continue to.

5. The org has invested in a new stadium opening in '17.

6. Fredi Gonzalez is an idiot, but he's our idiot. When he's making good decisions, they're really good. And when he's making bad decisions they're really dumb.

7. Bobby Cox is a first-ballot hall of famer and anyone who even remotely says he was a bad manager wouldn't know a baseball from a fruitloop...

Uggla should be sent to the minors to build confidence.

I think it would be the best for him and for the Braves. Bring him back up once he finally finds himself again.

As far as fair weather, not me. I was pulling for the Braves every game during the pre "worst to first" years before 1991, and I always will.

They got an absolute steal on that Simmons deal IMO.

Atlanta fans are consistent

Whether winning or losing, it's a shame fans still don't sell out the games. Tough to call them 'fairweather'.

As a side note, Cobb County is investing heavily in a new stadium for 2017. The Braves are hightailing to the rich suburbs (though the traffic will be even worse as that corridor is a nightmare without a stadium).

The Braves have been a model organization for many many years, and do a tremendous job of restocking their minor leagues with big-league quality players. They'll have a few expensive contracts coming up, but there's no doubt that the Braves will be able to continually compete for the top in the division. I wish the Phillies would mimic this system.
