I remember the really painful years, especially from 85-89....in highschool, I even had to hide my Braves hat for a little while...

things like the Brett Butler curse, Nick Esaski's health problems after a much-hyped trade, the other Randy Johnson, when their "hot" shortstop was Andres Thomas...and Dale Murphy getting trded to the Phillies (just before the Braves started becoming "good") although, I can't remember a World Series as exciting as '91 between the Braves and the Twins........two teams who were the laughstocks of baseball the previous eyar going all the way to the World Series and playing one hell of an exciting series...and the big Braves comeback to get there in the first place...ahhhhh, memories...
