Wondering if anyone is planning on going to any games. I have family in Sanford, so I head down to Florida a decent amount to catch a ST game or two. Last time was in '14 to see the Braves play the Mets in Port St. Lucie for Ervin Santana's first ST appearance as a Brave. I'm heading down on Wednesday for a week. I'd like to go to one of the away games, but it looks it's a three hour drive to all the other parks. Not sure that I'm willing to do that. Gonna at least catch a game at Disney.

I just got back from two games, Monday in Dunedin, Fla (Braves/Blue Jays) and Friday (Yankees/Braves). The Bravos won both!! In Dunedin I chatted with Manager Snitker for all of 45 seconds and Dansby Swanson for about the same. Both nice, gracious and real.

No ST games, but I will be going to Braves v. Dodgers on June 9th. Don't get excited, it's in LA.

Nice WNC. Do you go down most years? The only parks I've been to down there are Port St. Lucie and Disney. Looks like the Braves are on an island there as opposed to other teams. The only team that is relatively close is the Tigers since the Astros moved. I didn't realize that the Braves played such few teams before. It's just the Cards, Pirates, Blue Jays, Phillies, Yanks, Astros, and one game against the Nats and Marlins. The other five teams in FL they don't play at all.

Yes, I have gone to Florida for years and years, dating back to the Braves in West Palm Beach. It is even more fun now that my son lives in Orlando.

I have gone down for appx 20 years..............

Los Bravos are missin' a freakin' golden opportunity by not televising the game against the kids tonight. Hell, I'm much rather see that than the game against the Yanks last night!

It has never been remotely slow for me, and no one else has mentioned anything about that being an issue.

It's quite fast actually. I have an old laptop and subpar net connection and it flies here.

This board is working quite well thank you -- not slow downs like the other expired one
It has turned out better -- this was forward thinking by HMF to at least keep the Braves and baseball discussion going -- don't know what the season would be like without it
Hard to believe this is me saying this but this change is good

I use AdBLocker and this site is really fast for me. The ads have made virtually no difference for me. I have experimented with all possibilities to determine if going ad free was worth the expense. This really came out of the blue and no one else has experienced any issues, but I never expected every single person to like the experience here. Such is life.
