Through time of loss...cling to....baseball?

TBS is no longer going to airing the Braves games throughout baseball season. Since I don't particularly like the Braves, I couldn't really be bothered with it. I did find this one quote especially sad.


In Kansas, DeArmand, 60, has been watching the Braves since his town got cable TV in 1978. He credits the Braves telecasts with helping him get through the horrible summer of 1997, when his mother and his wife died a week apart. "It was just unbelievable, losing the two most important people in your life in seven days, and you have to reach out and cling to something," he said. He'll watch today's game with both sadness and disgust. "TBS has no loyalty to their fans," he said.


Can you imagine losing your mother and your wife within a week and instead of clinging to your creator, you cling to TBS and Braves baseball?
