I've been a Braves fan forever, but I think all the taxpayer money being spent on their new stadium is insane. The deals were worked out behind closed doors, without taxpayer input, and will benefit only the wealthy owners.

In any case I think Luckovich is making a great point about all the money being spent on them while management has made idiotic trades and wound up with a sure-fire bottom feeder for the foreseeable future.
