I don't know if I am doing this wrong but I can't post a thread on the National League east. And by the way the only two teams they have are the Mets and the Nationals. The Mets, ok they are in New York, which has great sports fans but what have they done, nada. Who cares about Pedro's toe, he didn't do much last year and I don't think he will this year. And the Nationals? I know they are a team that moved and garnered hype last year when they went into the All Star break with the division lead, but doesn't anyone remember they are the ex Expos. How ludacris would it be to have a forum on the Expos, which the Nationals are just by a different name. The Braves are still the team to beat. Everyone wrote them off for the last few years and they keep winning the division. They were totally written off last year and even with the many injuries they came through and won the divison. Hudson has a so-so year and I expect him to become dominant as he was when he was with the A's. This is his second year in the National League so I believe he will be more experienced. Chipper was injured but still put up decent numbers and had a great second half. They still have the best center fielder in both leagues with Andrew Jones. Cox always has a way to plug in new people, free agents or rookies, and still come out on top. Every year you see a different team win a division and go crazy while the National League east is ho hum the Braves won it again. I know their post seasons have been a disappointment to fans, me included, as I wish they had at least two rings so I can call them a dynasty and shut my friends up but I believe it will happen. Of course I have been saying that for the last few years. Don't count out the Braves to make it to the postseason, again.

The Braves have been the model of consistancy over the years, no doubt about that. Andruw Jones was just lights out last season. The loss of Furcal will hurt them, though, and I'm still not sold on their pitching staff for '06. The Mets are an improved team this year, and the Nationals will compete as long as they keep Soriano happy and productive. I see a tight race here.

Hi kazmerzack, you did just what I had hoped you would do. We're only a few weeks old and we decided to only start a forum for a team once there was enough interest. Until then, make posts for any basball team here in the baseball forum. Once there's a few Braves threads, I'll create a Braves forum and move all the threads into it.

Thanks for chatting here, kazmerzack

I'm wondering if it wouldn't be more efficient and user friendly if the forums were actually condensed a little. I tend to have opinions on a broad level of topics, however, it's way too much work for me to drill down into every league, every division and then every team. My personal opinion is that you might get more conversation on more topics if you lumped all National League Baseball together, all Western Conference Hockey together, all AFC Football together, etc.

Instead of hijacking kazmerzack's Atlanta Braves thread anymore, I've done a more detailed response in another thread.

Click over to this thread if you're intersted in hearing more about why we have the current categorization & how we'll be adding new forums:
Where's a Forum for My Team?
