ATLANTA -- The cigars were bigger than ever, the champagne and beer just as cold.

The scene in the joyous Atlanta Braves clubhouse showed that winning never gets old.

The Braves clinched their 13th consecutive division title Friday night, winning the NL East with an 8-7 comeback victory over the Florida Marlins.

mini over nyy because santana starts twice !!!

Exactly why I say they will lose other than meeting the Red Sox in the ALCS.

Did anyone hear Pedro say how the Yankees are his daddy because they owned him 2 straight games? I have a strong feeling he is setting them up to whoop them in the ALCS if they get there.

I think alot of people are going to be surprised and shocked at how different of a Braves team this is compared to past years. They are much improved in alot of little areas that really plagued them in previous post-seasons. They can use speed now to manufacture runs instead of relying on homeruns. The starting pitching has a bunch of no-name pitchers who are capable of shutting teams down (or just the opposite). They've got a great outfield in Jones, Drew, and Thomas, the overall defense is better, but still could use some improvement up the middle (Furcal has too many errors for his experience). I like this team, I feel better about this team than any of the others. Finally we don't have to wait for Chipper to drive runs in or Maddux to pitch that 1 run ballgame.

Everyone picked them to finish 3rd or 4th this year; haha :D

I just wish the A's would quit ****ing around and close out the AL West already.

noone won the division in 94. the season was cancelled before the end of the season and the playoffs.

did you notice that both atlanta teams both had the same scores today?

True, but my Expos had a six game led on the Braves at the "end" of the season.

Yeah, the Falcons won 6-3. I bet that was an exciting game! :no:

i was at the game, it was more frustrating than it was exciting. ugliest game ive ever witnessed. but, 3-0 nonetheless. falcons are going to win the superbowl, and the braves are going to win the world series. me and the other 4 true atlanta sports fans are going to have a great time.

falcons are going to win the superbowl, and the braves are going to win the world series.

Sorry to bring it to you, but the Braves will be lucky if they even get past the ALDS. Now, the Falcons will end up in the playoffs, but winning the Super Bowl? :laugh:

gotta believe. im well aware of our postseason history. ive been at the elimination game the past 2 years, its brutal, but this years team wasnt even supposed to make it this far, so hopefully they can keep proving everyone wrong.

Actually, they were expected to start with this record. We saw how bad they were last year without Vick, and man, were they bad. The only thing that was a question mark this year was Vick's adaptation to the west coast offense, which he has excelled in so far.

The Falcons will end up in the playoffs, but when they meet a top class team like the seahawks or packers that have a balanced offense, they are doomed.

Thinking about it, they can make it to the Superbowl considering the NFC does not have any dominant teams compared to the AFC.

i was talking about the braves not being expected to go anywhere.

as for the falcons though, this weeks game is a big test. a lot of writers are saying that if we win this game, then we'll be taken seriously. carolina is a 3.5 point favorite last time i checked. vick has never lost to carolina as a starter either. also decided today that im gonna drive to charlotte and try go to the game..

but i dont see why atlanta couldnt beat a team like seattle or green bay. the falcons have a much improved team now from the 2002 team that beat green bay at lambeau, 27-7 at that.

Simple, Seattle has an efficient balanced offense and a great defense ranking second below the Jaguars.

    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know The ONLY thing I need to know is the price, which I know will be way higher than I (and most people) are willing to pay for a phone... so basically nothing here I need to know. PS: Nice job getting that Apple reference to a non-existent and unrevealed product as "competition" in there. Cheque is in the mail.
    • Well I really think the repasting helped if your higher clocks have returned, maybe the next thing to look at is if there is a problem with your case airflow? I guess this because your 3080 has returned to optimal state, but is still staying too warm, which might suggest it was thermal throttling before you repasted, of which the only logical conclusion could be outside factors.
    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know by Hamid Ganji Galaxy Z Fold 7 - Image via Samsung The next generation of Samsung foldables is set to be unveiled next month at the second Unpacked event of the year. Samsung’s 2026 foldables are not expected to offer significant upgrades over their predecessors, with the Korean firm instead focusing on design refinements and conventional upgrades such as faster processors and better cameras. However, Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil an all-new passport-style foldable this year to rival Apple’s first foldable iPhone, which is expected to debut this September. Here’s a roundup of everything we know about Samsung’s upcoming foldable devices ahead of their official debut. When can we expect Samsung’s new foldables? The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 series were unveiled in July, and Samsung is expected to maintain this timeframe in 2026. Based on previous reports from Korean sources, Samsung will hold its Unpacked event on July 22 in London, UK, to pull back the curtain on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. The devices are also expected to hit the shelves a few weeks after launch. However, Samsung has yet to announce an official date. A new naming scheme? One of the most interesting changes we might see this year is a new naming scheme for Samsung’s latest foldables. SamMobile reported that since Samsung is expected to unveil three foldables this year, it has adopted a new naming strategy to simplify product identification for customers. Accordingly, the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 will reportedly be called the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and will serve as the direct successor to last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7. The “Ultra” suffix suggests the phone could feature higher-end specifications, such as additional rear camera modules. Samsung’s new passport-style foldable is expected to carry the Galaxy Z Fold 8 name without any suffix. This model is reportedly equipped with two rear cameras. No major changes are expected for the Flip model. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 anticipated specs Rumors over the past few months suggest Samsung is preparing several upgrades for its upcoming foldables, although the devices may continue to rely on larger batteries and faster charging speeds rather than dramatic design changes. The primary focus this year is expected to be the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and its wide-screen design.

Expected specifications include: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Exynos 2600 processor 12GB of RAM with 256GB and 512GB storage options 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner dispaly and 4.1-inch Super AMOLED outer dispaly 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 Samsung’s foldables are also expected to launch with Gemini Intelligence, Google’s AI suite for automating tasks in Android ecosystem. Moreover, given current memory and component costs, some Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 variants could see a price hike. Galaxy Z Fold 8 adopts a wide-screen design The centerpiece of the upcoming Unpacked event could be the Galaxy Z Fold 8, previously rumored as the Galaxy Z Fold Wide. This model adopts a passport-style form factor and is expected to compete directly with Apple’s iPhone Fold. Galaxy Z Fold 8 official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here’s what to expect: 7.6-inch primary OLED display and 5.4-inch cover display, 120Hz refresh rate, 2,600 nits peak brightness, and 4:3 aspect ratio Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage options 4,800mAh battery with 45W wired charging 50MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera Android 17 and One UI 9 The three new foldable phones are unlikely to be the only devices unveiled at Samsung’s Unpacked event. The company is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the Galaxy Watch 9 series.
