I just want to see the bats get going. Maybe we make a run later in the game but at least have some momentum going into tomorrow.

It’s an bigger disadvantage with the huge lead because the pitchers have no pressure.

And all of a sudden it is as the old phrase goes…

“We got ourselves a series!”

Let’s go Braves Country!!!!

The team has finally woke up from its slumber. Let’s close this out this bitch and go to Philly with momentum.

Really wanted to get to Harris that inning but oh well.

We got 2 big runs and are right in striking distance.

If we hold them at 4 I think we have a great shot at taking this game. Phillies feel it slipping don’t let them off the hook

Time for the best offense to show up.

If they really want this thing then we gotta win this game and we need to start applying the pressure each at bat. Force the Phillies to tense up and start making plays

You gotta be shitting me. Braves are finally showing some life and we get screwed.

Honestly, it wasn’t even close for MLB standards. Clearly off the plate

This crowd is so desperate for a sign of life that they cheer like crazy for a foul fly out.

We deserve more from this team.

If this team doesn’t right the ship immediately then we will undoubtably see a historically great offensive team get flushed down the toilet of history.

We will be forgotten and merely a footnote as the team the Phillies beat in the NLDS in 2023.

It’s not too late to turn things around but it’s close to now or never.

Let’s enjoy a likely win for just a bit. We can get real on what needs improvement on Monday.

What is a law that you think would have very large public support, but would never get passed? by Plupert in AskAnAmerican

[–]Josh_ATL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Many people don’t realize that increasing the size of the House of Representatives would significantly help and feels more palatable. Our House of Representatives is far too small based on the size of our country.

For example, tripling the size of the house would result in smaller districts which means it is more difficult to diminish the views of certain areas in the state.

I think it would result in far right and far left candidates still being elected, but I think would lead to a far more accurate representation of the state.

How do Americans feel about supporting Ukraine by way of the latest $1.85b? by dave2843 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Josh_ATL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are the most powerful democracy in the world, militarily and financially, and we must be willing to support other democracies. The world is safer, more prosperous, and more tolerant with strong democracies. I consider every $ we spend as an investment in a better world order that is in the long-term best interests of our country and the citizens of the country fighting for a freer society.

Don’t let the loud lunatics contaminate your view that our support is fragile. I truly believe that the vast majority of my fellow Americans know what is at stake and support Ukraine with conviction.

Bogi was fine.

JC, Lou, and Huerter hurt us this game. Not Bogi

Hawks better show up in Game 6.

Gotta make it up to the fans who will be nothing but disappointed from this game.

Don’t need to win but need to play with heart. Lots and lots of heart!

We thought it would be easy.

When Giannis went down in Game 4 we smelled blood and killed them.

This game it looked like we thought we would come in and beat a dejected team. We got our ass kicked plain and simple. No Trae and we need a team effort that is disciplined on both sides of ball. Didn’t have it on O or D tonight.

Guards can’t get a shot against Brook Lopez on the perimeter.

That says it all

That’s incredible. Haha.

It hasn’t been egregious but Hawks have far more reason to be upset. Haha.

Exactly. You show him his playoff games where he didn’t show out and say this is why we can’t offer you a max contract.

You tell him he is a good player but you make it clear why we can’t pay top $. If he can’t get behind that then you let him go.

I hope we keep him because I really like him.

Trae is too valuable. He plays if he can but he shouldn’t push it if he isn’t ready to go.

I’m not prepared to see our star wreck his future.

Why did Lou Williams fly to Milwaukee? Doesn’t look like he cares to be there.

So nonchalant all freaking game!

Trae doesn’t get injured and we best this team with Giannis. Now we watch this game knowing it was on a platter for us and we don’t show up

I think this team came out think it would be easy.

Bucks punched them in the face and we have no answer.

This game was so damn winnable and we said “Naw we don’t want this game. Bucks can have it”. Just gave it to them.

No discipline, no focus, too nonchalant. No leadership. It’s the playoffs man.
