~JB, Still Choppin’ Y’all.
So with a day of rest, this good blogger is here tonight to share with you the wonderful “stuff” I’ve come across this month that I must share with you.
First up. Something a Launching Pad reader sent my way that had me in stitches. The Batting Stance Guy. Check out his reincarnations of famous Braves hitters. I think he nailed them pretty well.
Next up is a new Braves podcast I’ve been enjoying. House of the Braves Talk is one of the better podcasts I’ve listened to in a long time. These guys put together a great show and I’m planning on listening every week. I hope you will too.
I also stocked up on some more of retro gear that I’ve been wearing at any occasion I can. In this pic you’ll notice my circa 1938 all wool Atlanta Crackers cap.
I’ve also got my throw back Atlanta Braves T Shirt that features a retired logo that dates back to the Milwaukee days that I love.
Those are the Braves I grew up with and it is THE most comfortable shirt I own. Both of these items I picked up at Distant Replays which is my favorite store to shop at.
Well there’s one last item to share. I got this in June as well.
No it’s not for me and I know this is from an earlier post but in case you missed it, the JB family will be bringing another Braves fan into the world. I found out on my birthday this June that we’ll be welcoming the little one into our lives in February.
Enjoy the day off and then let’s get back to work by getting some wins in San Diego!
Keep Choppin’!!

Here I was, all ready to trump your memorabilia post with a shout-out to my very own Braves tattoo, and you go & pull the Spawn card, JB! Nicely done! LOL
Congratulations to you & The Mrs., my friend. I wish you the best of luck…..and, as the mother of a 10-year-old boy, you’ll need all the luck you can get
But if the Spawn’s a Braves fan, you’re one step closer to the Mostest Awesomest Parents Award!

JB, love the old-school gear you showed here. Great stuff. And major congrats on the little one on the way. Gotta stock up on lil’ Braves gear … and diapers.
Here’s to at least two (preferably three) in SD this weekend!
Bud.

Moonkween,
You have a Braves tatt? Got any pic’s? I can’t say I’ve never thought about it but I’m tattoo free at the moment.
Thanks for the Congrats, people. We’re thrilled and boy or girl I hope there will be a lot love for the Braves from our child.
Peace!
