Fairweather? WTF you talkin bout? I was listening to the Braves on radio at age 8. Been to countless games as far back as Turner Field. Just apathetic because I can’t watch them at all.
It's just that I'm back to square one following the Braves much like you because of viewer restrictions driven by greed in the form of extortion.
Cable tv became an absolute godsend back in the day. Prior to that baseball fans in Alabama could only view a regular season game on a Saturday thanks to NBC.
I only knew the Braves through radio waves throughout the sixties and seventies. And it was not until the summer of '82 while working in Atlanta that I was able to attend a good many games.
The misdirected fairweather jab was in reply to the current season of misfortune and slight struggle along with the sheer volume of trade suggestions I read daily (by the uninitiated) as if the Braves only came into existence (with the new maffs) when they themselves discovered the game.
There... I'm a baseball snob.
