I would rather hear that though than the constant questions from the rednecks about when Pearl can come back. If we miss the tournament this year it will be absolutely brutal on that front. Most of our fans love Pearl more than Tennessee basketball.

a lot of Alabama fans want to hire Pearl if Grant is fired. I really doubt we'd risk hiring someone like him in basketball. I don't think Mal Moore will take any chances on hurting the athletic department or the reputation while Saban is there. He just doesn't have to...he's perfectly safe with him

Back to baseball...
You guys watch "Trouble with the Curve"?
It's aight I suppose. The idea of a legally blind scout still has me laughing.

I enjoyed it. Just a fun movie with baseball and some funny moments. Don't expect Oscar worthy performances.

Ha! You see Chipper's tweet today?

It's about time to get back into the swing of things.
Will we trade for a LF? Or will we roll with a Prado/Francisco platooon at 3B with a platoon of Prado/Gattis/Johnson in LF?
Will Heyward, Prado, Meds, or anyone else get signed to a contract extension?
Will we win the World Series?

Need to do it, but no.

If Beachy's 2nd half return doesn't get delayed and Uggla plays like only lukewarm garbage....maybe.

Looking at the teams who have won the World Series over the last 5 years and how neck-and-neck the braves were with them, the braves have as good a chance as anybody. It's just a matter of staying healthy, getting hot at the right time, and getting a little luck along the way. Any championship team needs some good luck along the way.
