Nationals vs Braves, Game 1

[tenken627]

yeah, it's all bad luck

It's cuz we suck. Just sucks that this happens to make it more suck.

The braves own us.

The mets and braves own our souls.

Any of you lot want to go tomorrow, 2 seats free to good home, PM me.  LF uppers, not bad, not great (300s low letters) but the price is right and I will need to be out of town. 

edit: perhaps my timing isn't perfect

Here come the braves (or any big game for that matter)

Cant believe there are that many losers who had nothing better in their lives on a Friday night

Good weather, Max pitching against an excellent team.  I drove up 395N at 4:30PM without a ticket,  expecting to cruise into DC.
 90 minutes later I made it only to the Pentagon, then turned around.  Traffic was INSANE.

Braves are proving that they are a much better team.  Nats will need to back into this post season.

At least we won't have anymore games against the Braves or Mets after this series. Silver linings

all the people who want to see a four way tie for the second wild card in order to wear out the Nats opponent are right but maybe we'd be better off petitioning MLB to allow the Nats play the bad news bears for all their postseason games

Why not...it's just one game...

[spidernat]

FP still selling hope when all this team does is go full spread eagle for the braves

I can't make it, but that's a nice offer. 

I have a hunch you'll get some takers once lil' d assures everyone during the presser that the boys are going 1-0 tomorrow.

Believe it or not, they managed to find highlights from the game for the video board

[RobDibblesGhost]

Isn’t this when they show the in-game highlights on the big screen at the park? Bet it’s all dog pics tonight.

FP's crappy sense of humor -- misnaming dog breeds to entertain himself.

So Nat's highlights?

[tenken627]

Wow Markakis is human

[ajcartwright]

here we go - the magical 8th inning

I’m shocked. What did they show? The back-to-back walks that preceded the Zim Special?
