Skip Caray: 1939 - 2008

The legend died Sunday:
Skip Caray made the call when the Atlanta Braves won the World Series in 1995: "Yes! Yes! Yes! The Atlanta Braves have given you a championship! Listen to this crowd!"
He made the call when Sid Bream scored on Francisco Cabrera's pinch-hit to win the National League Championship Series for the Braves in 1992: "Here comes Bream! Here's the throw to the plate! He iiiiiiiisssssssss ... safe! Braves win! Braves win! Braves win! Braves win! ... Braves win!"
And he made the call in the late innings of a lousy game in the lost season of 1979: "You have our permission to turn off the TV and go to bed now ... as long as you promise to patronize our sponsors."

Not This Way

John Smoltz is out for the rest of the season with a shoulder injury.
This may be the end of his career as a player.

Devastation

Tornadoes have ripped through my hometown. Many residences were devastated. You've seen the pictures.
The images that hit closest to home (atleast to me) are the ones in this thread. These are from Cabbagetown; more specifically the Fulton Cotton Mill lofts. The lofts are rich with history. Truly stunning architecture:
