Let college football countdown begin (and don't bite on Alabama)
Alabama will not win the national title. Johnny Manziel will not win the Heisman Trophy. Georgia Tech will not finish in fourth place in the ACC Coastal Division. You know, it’s a lot easier to predict what won’t happen in college football next season than what will. It’s about three ...
Hudson gives Braves 5, and this time that’s enough
The primary objective of pro sports franchises is to monetize every millimeter of a stadium and every breathing aspect of a team. We’re not yet at the point of seeing sponsors slapped on the backs of uniforms. But if baseball should go in that direction, the Braves have a viable ...
Is Danny Ferry waiting for Pacers' Brian Shaw?
What you are about to read is pure speculation. I feel compelled to declare that up front, unlike so many NBA coaching rumors you read on the internet that quote "well-placed sources," which often is the Ouija board sitting next to the author or, even worse, an agent. So here ...
B.J. Upton knows he has a lot to live up to (updated)
B.J. Upton is roughly five percent (42 of 810 games) into his intended tenure with the Braves, such a ridiculously small sample size that to stamp “bust” on his forehead now would be at the very least presumptuous and at worst like living in fear that the Loch Ness monster ...
Larry Drew: ‘I don’t like the odds’ of staying
Through this whole bizarre process of interviewing outside coaching candidates while he still has a coach under contract, Hawks general manager Danny Ferry has maintained there’s still a chance he might bring back Larry Drew. Sorry. But the guy whose future is dangling from a string isn’t real confident of ...

Braves come home with too many concerns
Through the first quarter of the season, the Braves have alternated from the marvel you couldn’t take your eyes off of (12-1 start) to the discombobulated mess that has made you want to cover your face (10-17 since). One more branch on the personality tree, and they’ll become an entry ...
So far: Schafer tops Upton in all but salary
Good morning. I’m working on a Braves column that will be posted later on MyAJC.com. One element of it: Given how this team was built, who should take the most heat if things don’t work out: general manager Frank Wren or manager Fredi Gonzalez? But I thought I would post ...
Hudson's struggles are troubling sign
Notwithstanding that the Braves stranded 12 base runners in Wednesday’s loss to 5-3 Arizona and continued their run of strikeout infamy (11 more, including four by Juan Francisco), the bigger issue right now might be pitching. The team’s earned run average of 3.52 entering Wednesday ranked fourth in the National ...
Smoltz feeling more senior than senior tour-like
Between the $140 million he made in his baseball career, two broadcasting jobs, the frequent speaking engagements and the three geezer basketball leagues he plays in, there is little reason to feel sorry for John Smoltz if this professional golf thing doesn’t quite work out.“It’s pie in the sky,” the ...
