My cousin in Georgia sent me this shirt. No truer words have been spoken. IYKYK.

A navy blue shirt features the slogan "PUT THE BRAVES BACK ON TBS" in white letters.

@skoobz I’m a diehard Braves fan from Louisiana pretty much because of TBS. So many of us out there.

@Mtt I grew up pulling for the Cubs because of WGN and the Braves because of TBS.

@Mtt @bobwertz The Braves/TBS combo is the reason why when I visit Kauffman Stadium in KC that the joint is half full with Braves fans. I definitely feel at home there.

@Mtt I fell in love with the Braves when my youth team was named after them and again when I saw the crowd do the tomahawk chop. Second fav team after the now defunct Expos.

@johncho I miss the Expos. I have a vivid memory of Andruw making a diving catch to end a Glavine shutout on the turf in Montreal.

@skoobz Same when I visit Minute Maid (now Daikin) Park. Amazing how many Braves fans come out.

@Mtt I wonder what they did with all the oranges in the train out in left field there.

@johncho Man, I remember the sound of a squared up ball in Olympic Stadium. I miss the Expos. As for the chop, always had mixed feeling on it. I’m a diehard Florida Gators fan and it was FSU alum Deion Sanders that got folks doing it there. But, the old Fulton County Stadium was electric when that chant hit.

@skoobz I love that the Habs (MTL hockey team) adopted “Youppi!” the beloved mascot. Which roughly translates to “Hurray!” And yeah the exclamation mark is part of his name.
