I'll probably be a regular here, I'm a hardcore Jazz, Brave and Broncos fan so the new forums are really awesome for me now I don't have to go to the dreadful ESPN boards anymore.

I live in Utah and watch the games with TBS.. unfortunately I cannot afford MLB extra innings, or whatever they call it, but I keep up-to-date to the best of my abilities.

My favorite player is definately Druw, but I'm also lovin Chip, Frenchy, McCann, Smoltz and Huddy. I'm just prayin for postseason and for God's sake a bullpen.

I've been a Braves fan since the '91 World Series. Now, before anyone accuses me of being a bandwagon fan who jumped onboard because they became successful, realize that watching the '91 WS as a little kid with my dad - an Atlanta native - is what got me into both the Braves and the game of baseball. The success of the team coincidentally came around the same age I was getting into sports in general. Right around the same time, I became a Magic fan and also an Atlanta Falcons fan (Deion Sanders was the man).

I have favorite Braves players who have come and gone over the years, but my all-time favorites are Hank Aaron and Warren Spahn. I also have an interest in both Braves and MLB history.

Already had a "welcome" sticky, thanks.

I'm a south florida guy, i live in Miami, I love the Heat and the Dolphins, but the Braves have always been my favorite team (i dislike the Marlins) ...i started watching them in 1987 when i was 9 and they were terrible, lol. Back in the Dale Murphy, Rich Mahler, Andres Thomas days... i will always stick by the Braves no matter what.

Orginally from Russia, I'm a hardcore Utah Jazz and Braves fan. Lived in Atlanta for 5 years, until I moved to Cali where now I go to all the Braves games when they are playing the Giants. Started following the Braves around 1995, and Ive loved em ever since.

Go Braves

Just so happens that i've been looking for a place to discuss braves baseball. I've been on RealGM for a while so im obviously a huge fan of the NBA and as you can tell from my name the Orlando Magic. Baseball and the Braves were my first love, i guess you could say. Im sure I will be a regular on this board and look forward to getting to know some other Braves fans!

I've been a braves fan since around 89-90. I am a life long resident of the Philadelphia area, my entire family is Phillies fans, but I was young and wanted to pick my own team, and since the braves were the only other team always on TV (thank you tbs) I began to watch them. I became a huge fan of Ron Gant, and have been a braves fan ever since.

Been a Braves fan since I started watching TV when I was probably 7. So back in 92. Not a bandwagon member... I love braves, hawks, falcons, and Thrashers. Die hard Braves and Hawks fan. I live in Atlanta so I go to a lot of games... glad they finally have an MLB forum.

Hello everyone,
I just found out that they had boards for baseball on realgm. I post occasionally on realgm for the Hawks, but I mostly just read stuff. I am a diehard Braves fan, but sadly I am at Southern Methodist University in Dallas (the unfortunate home of the Bush library), so it is hard to get games that are not on TBS. I am excited about this upcoming season, and I look forward to contributing to the board.

Glad you made it over H Bomb.

Now we can have our own forum for just the Falcons and not some sticky at the Hawks forum.

Hello, been a huge braves fan since I started watching them at the age of 12 in the world Series when I was officially introduced to baseball. As unlike most of you guys I picked up playing and watching baseball late. Have followed them all the way through while living here in the NY/NJ area. Have had MLB league pass past two seasons and am looking forward to coming in here and chatting with you guys about our team. The streak was ended but its never too late to start another one.

Been a Braves fan since 1997 or so. It's sort of strange since I live in Wisconsin and the Braves left Wisconsin years before I was born. I write a Braves column I call Braves Bias and when I'm bored I do crazy things like creating my own baseball statistic which I have named KB production.
