Why?

Let's not jump to conclusions. Could just as easily be an illness in the family...

Is this

Bravesin07 version 2?

If Clemens and Smoltz face off in a deciding Game 7, we could witness the perfect storm of nonsensical comments from Bravesin07 and NYYLover1000 - gatling

LOL

it figures that i have been checking for updates for a week, found nothing, finally get on here and post something, and 15 minutes later there is an update on rotoworld

Travis came home because his Grandmother passed away unexpectantly. He's back with the team now. Yes I am awaiting a liver transplant however I have been doing well and hopefully nothing else will interfere with his season. I really hope people don't think rude things about Travis. His passion is playing baseball and his famiily. He is not a head case as some people are questioning. He is very loyal and will always be there for his family and his team. As he spoke at his Grandmother's memorial he said he will continue to strive and make her and his grandfather proud as they always were his biggest fans. (Besides his Dad and Me!) Keep an eye on him and I know you will be pleased.

Sorry

for your loss. Trav is one of my favorite prospects.

Don't let the comments above get to you too much - for a site that is devoted to something that takes time to develop, there sure is a lot of knee-jerk conclusions drawn around here. Many of them senseless.

Tell Trav slurve says go get 'em!

Absolutely

I'm a big believer in your son's talent, as are most people around baseball and on this site. I'm sure he'll live up to that promise he made and give you many happy memories. God bless.
