Suck it Lincecum.

Also, after beating San Fran and having the best record in the NL, I turn on Baseball Tonight. They cover the Braves, then the Phillies game which is still in progress. What do they do? Say how, now with Oswalt, the Phillies are a World Series team, and I quote "no doubt"...the Braves just beat the NL's BEST pitcher in a lot of people's eyes, and they still get no love? God oh mighty. The Braves are the Carolina Panthers of MLB.

Edit: Now Sportscenter did a bit better. "Braves have a Major League best record at home this season. However, only 10-10 since the All-Star break". Damn you, ESPN. Haters gonna hate though.

Sorry, but the Braves unfortunately don't get much love in their own city so don't expect much from a National level either.

any news on Medlen?

Partially torn ligament in his throwing arm. He's going to try and rehab it and hope it won't have to be repaired. Moylan had the same thing happen and ended up having to get Tommy John surgery, which would put him out a whole calendar year at least. Hudson said it really takes a year and a half to return to form.

I didn't even check that stat. That's what the Peachtree TV announcers said. :D Oh well. Still the best home record in baseball.

I'll back you up on that, I heard it also....I even checked the standings to see if what they said was true since the Padres might still have been playing but the Pads were in first regardless.

      Canes vs Panthers Rd 3 Gm3 8pm

      By carpanfan96 · Posted

      Oh I went off and fully entertained my wife last night as my emails go to her phone as well because of my health. So she got the whole conversation as it happened.    Like I went to games in Detroit for the cup finals, I've been to games in Greensboro, Raleigh, and Chicago as well. My mom and her nurse friend double dated one of the players from when the team was in Greensboro. "He's still with the team in some compacity as well." I know people who work for the team at the arena as well. How the hell would I not be considered a fan. Only reason I haven't gone to a game since 2022 is because of my health and money situation. Last game I went to was at United Center in Chicago and me and my wife spent around 1k for glass seats and some food at the arena and we were next to the penalty box. The pictures of the hurricane players I took are lost because my phone crapped out a few weeks later.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      The Falcons win was a fantastic way to end the season and I think just about every Panthers fan would agree the team the coaching staff and particularly Bryce Young were impressive. We really needed that. Credit where it's due. At the same time. Now we have to establish it wasn't just a flash in the pan. We had one of those earlier in the season against the Raiders. As a tortured Panthers fan I have to acknowledge that. I know you're joking but in all seriousness I don't think the QB sneak is something for us to be concerned about in general but I would be lying to myself if I did not acknowledge that looking back at one particular game last season where we continually trotted out Eddie Pinero on 4th and short on the opponents side of the field we could use some creativity in those situations and it's also a matter of predictability. As time goes on it's something for Canales to work on and figure out. Especially with our kicker situation as it stands.
