Return of the Player A

SIgns a minor league deal with the Braves. He has to go to court on April 7 to face charges of DUI, leaving the scene of an accident, and assault (he beat up his friend trying to help him, hahahaha). He faces 2 years in state prison, but apparently the Braves aren't concerned.

 

Here's to Player A succeeding falling flat on his face with the Braves.

Aw. I wanted

him to sign with the Yankees. Then he would have to shave that ridiculous beard.

Curse you, Detroit Lions!

Player A

can die in a vat of acid.

I'd prefer he lived through the vat of acid

and then had to be re-acided every year for the next 10 years. That would be partial repayment for the pain he's inflicted on the human race for the last several years.

Being a Braves fan...

I'm not to happy about this signing at all..But I think GM Frank Wren has the right idea.

"We’ll get a chance to see him in the minor leagues," Wren said. "We’ll see if he’s the person we think he is. If he’s not, he won’t be here."

I love how a guy who got a DUI

and fled the scene of an accident is getting a second chance, but Bonds can't get a sniff anywhere.

The Braves have nothing to lose

If Player A fails or goes to jail, whatever, but they can call him up and use him off the bench if he amounts to any- hahahahaha who the fuck am I kidding? Fuck you and your 3 for 41 tattoo, Player A.
