the FREAKIN' METS???

We just traded Frenchy to the god damned METS? For a bag of broken bats?ust what we needed. Another no hit lefty outfielder.

Perfect.

Now I'm pissed.

I WON!

Dan, from Saints of the Cheap Seats held a week long trivia contest awhile ago. This mother was hard! I had to pour through my reference books, google everybody, phone a friend, and generally pull my hair out.
But in the end, it was worth it.
Let's check out the loot that Dan sent over.....
Clint Sammons 2008 Topps Finest Rookie auto! Sweet. Clint is being held up being the Braves backup catcher by the free agent signing of David Freaking Ross. Seriously? Clint should be on the big club by July if he doesn't make it out of Spring Training.

Next up...

Brian McCann All Star Jersey! AwwYeah! This is what it's about!

Catchers aplenty here at Waxaholic!

David Ross?!???? Really?

Happy Birthday Jeffrey!

Happy 25th Birthday Jeff!
One of the hometown favourites... there is nothing quite as relaxing as watching a Braves game on TBS and hearing Bobby Cox yell; "C'mon Jeffrey!" after each pitch.

I love my team, despite the owners and the inept front office.... not even they, try as they might, will ruin my love of my team.

2006 Topps Draft Picks and Prospects Football - NOT John Smoltz

Pack two of our Football repack box is 2006 Topps Draft Picks and Prospects with everyone favourite's hot tub splashin', co-ed wooing, backup quarterback on the cover.
Cheer up Matt. Warner is like 47 or so... he'll retire soon.
Charles Rogers - Detroit Lions. One of many 1st round busts from everyone's favourite GM, Matt Millen. Millen is now a TV analyst, and Rogers is in jail. I wonder why Detroit went 0-16?

Jerome Bettis - Pittsburgh. The Bus. A lot better ball player than TV analyst.

Julius Jones - Cowboys. Julius went from being the #1 guy in Dallas to being the #1 guy in Seattle. And still he watches the playoffs from the couch.

Jimmy Williams Chrome Rookie. This card is a 1/2 inch thick.
Jimmy was drafted 5th in the 2nd round of the 2006 draft by the Atlanta Falcons. Jimmy still enjoys the wacky weed. Jimmy was cut by Atlanta. Jimmy don't have no job.

Omar Jacobs Rookie.

Omar was MVP of the GMAC Bowl. Omar has the best touchdown to interception ratio in NCAA-1A history. (10.25-1) Omar led the nation in touchdown passes. Omar was drafted by the Steelers. Omar got cut. Picked up by the Eagles. Cut by the Eagles. Signed by the Chiefs. Cut by the Chiefs. THE EFFIN CHIEFS!!!!!!

Omar now slings the pigskin for the mighty Florence Phantoms of the American Indoor Football Association.

I can't make stuff like this up.

The only thing worse than this pack is any trade made by Frank Wren EVER!

WTF?

Happy Birthday Brandon!

Happy Birthday to Brandon Jones! Brandon is one of the Braves top prospects, and has a chance to make the big club this season.

With the upcoming trade of Frenchy for a bag of balls and a case of chew... Brandon even has a chance to start.
Sweet Jesus.

Anyways... Happy birthday bud.




This just in..... Frank Wren has traded Brandon and Tommy Hanson to the Indians for Kenny Lofton ...
