I don’t remember exactly when I started watching baseball but it must have been around 1997. I had never been to a game or even played it, but TBS and WGN always had baseball on in the summer. I’d flip between the Braves and the Cubs, still too early to have any preference on which team I watched
But as the summer dragged on I started noticing this crazy old dude the Braves had for a manager named Bobby Cox
Smoltz or Maddux or Chipper would be on the wrong end of a bad call and out of nowhere there went Bobby to give whatever umpire unfortunate enough to be wrong a piece of his mind.
Eventually it became a tradition, especially when my grandma would come to visit. I’d sit there in the living room while my parents put my siblings to bed, she’d sit in her rocker, and we’d watch the Braves together. Even better if there was a mist falling outside. She always loved a good mist. I never understood it. It misted on my wedding day. It misted on the day we buried her
Fast forward 30 years and my wife and I are in Atlanta to see the Braves in a World Series. When I started watching baseball the Braves had just come off their only ring so I never got to see them win
We’re sitting there in the 40 degree weather getting soaked slowly by the rain that was falling. I was kind of irritated that the weather was so bad.
I was just texting my brother to complain about my bad luck when my mom responded to a video I sent of the weather with “I see Nana sent the mist”.
That text hit me like a ton of bricks. My head filled with flashbacks of summer nights watching a sport neither of us even understood. I knew beyond any shadow of a doubt that we were winning that World Series.
This team doesn’t exist without all the teams Bobby built before, the legacy he built in Atlanta.
Thank you for everything Bobby!!!!! Rest easy king
@KweenInYellow@angertab “Hamas never agreed to disarm”
Yeah we know. They’re genocidal Nazis who won’t stop until the entirety of gaza is leveled.
Because hamas doesn’t care about Palestine
The way care about spreading islamosupremacy and slaughtering Jews
@BobbyBeltTX I still remember riding in the car with my parents late one night and hearing If Ever You’re in My Arms Again for the first time and just being blown away by the dudes voice.
@CKnightrid51402@BassDiet@Audjuice9989@nyaraVT we’re reaching a point we’re breathing is going to be considered gender affirming care
Their goal in these arguments is painting “gender affirming care” as the norm in order to push their ideology
@CKnightrid51402@BassDiet@Audjuice9989@nyaraVT He’s gonna point you back to that nonsensical study He posted that says absolutely nothing whatsoever in support of his argument.
And in fact, it makes my argument exactly
On the contrary, you’re trying desperately to justify and equivocate your perversions by making it appear as if they are common place
Hair replacement is in no way gender affirming care. Literally in no sense of the word is it gender affirming care
That’s pure cope from ideological idiots
