Other people (the fact we're reds fans is irrelevant) saw your butthurt'ness and chimed in. Sorry you're a whiny baby who gets witty and sarcastic whenever someone mentions even something slightly negative about your teams.
Cleveland Indians fan here. I would like to add another vote for "butthurt" for lotz.

Not sure. A lot doesn't mean all, but i do believe pirates fans would love to finish over .500.

I'm sure a Braves fan would love to win 2 World Series like the Marlins have... Ohhhhhh!!!!!! (Also note I know the Braves also have 2 world series).

It's so comical how you get so sensitive over the littlest things regarding your teams.

Haha it's a tough time to be a Marlins fan... the saddest thing is yesterday I spent 30 minutes arguing with a friend that the Marlins were worse than the Astros haha.

It's May 12th, 2013.

The Oakland Athletics lead MLB in runs scored.

The New York Yankees have the best record in the league.

Crazy sport.

more comical that people think I'm butthurt or sensitive because I respond. If sportsfan would have originally said that he meant since the Braves started 12-1 and won 10 games in a row, well no shit they are slumping. Winning 2/3 (one pitch from sweeping) from the best team in baseball on their field then possibly splitting at the defending champions != slump. Now, they got their ass kicked today and have another tough series starting tomorrow in Arizona. They need to find a way to win some games or they'll risk falling to second in their division.

Braves were 4-6. I see where a slump could be considered, but that isn't a long enough timeframe to call it that. 0-10 sure, but 4-6 isn't really a slump IMO. Keep that pace up and make it 8-12 over a month and I'll agree.

Not that I really disagree with you, but the same record, % wise, over 20 games is a slump but over 10 it's not? :confused:

Sure. Is 1-2 a slump (even worse then 4-6 % wise)? I know 3 is not 10. But 10 is also not 20. And IMO, in a season like baseball, I don't get caught up as much in 10 game spans. It's enough to raise the eyebrows, but not enough to panic. 20 games is enough to panic.

Sorry but that is terrible logic lol

10 games is enough to be deemed a slump. Obviously so is 20. 3 is not.

Your opinion. And yes 10 games is enough at 2-8. But at 4-6??? I dunno.

Oh okay no I agree 4-6 isn't a slump. I thought you were saying 10 games isn't enough to be considered a slump. Even if it was 2-8.

My bad lol

I think I worded it that way. But what I meant was over this particular 10 games it wasn't. But if that pace continued to 20 games then I think it would be.

I gotcha...yeah I'd agree. I wasn't really trying to argue the Braves' are slumping. More or less chimed in because karen's butthurt'ness was so obvious. I don't really like to talk about the Braves on here because of how karen would respond to literally anything I'd say.

Me-"Braves are playing the Cubs next."

Karen-"Yeah, like this really going to be a tough series :rolleyes: probably tougher than the Reds series when we took 2/3 though."

So me making a point that you agree with is considered being butthurt? Thanks for stating that you "chimed in" to troll.
