TBS hasn't for probably a decade now. it was a gradual decline though, they didn't suddenly quit showing games. |

Date: June 21st, 2016 12:23 AM Author: slippery step-uncle's house That is a shame. I don't like the braves but early 90s braves games on tbs had a unique aesthetic i can't describe. Now all sporttt is covered the exact same way (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3261442&forum_id=2#30752383) |

e.g.:
For example, during a particularly long losing streak in the 1980s, Skip declared at the start of a game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, "And, like lambs to the slaughter, the Braves take the field". [this was in the 80s when the braves were regularly the worst team in baseball]
not flame, he died the year after TBS quit broadcasting braves baseball. clearly his soul was linked. |

Date: June 21st, 2016 12:30 AM Author: Swashbuckling public bath shitlib the crazy thing was this was before the huge baseball TV contract explosion. they could have resigned the braves for relatively little money.
instead TBS got the idea they would turn into a legitimate comedy network (but primarily family oriented!) instead of "that channel with the Braves and Andy Griffith reruns". something which not even fucking Conan has managed to make happen ten years later. |

TBS used to air captain planet (long before gore thought about inventing the internet, much less curing global warming), mind you.
don't forget the time ted turner thought he could create a new olympics:
