This series is amazing to watch. I think Frank Wren deserves a video by himself. As a Marlins fan and having to watch my team play the Braves every so often, I've understood that Frank Wren was a bad GM, but I never really truly got a grasp of *how* bad he truly was. I hope you'll get around to do one on another NL East Team: The Miami Marlins. In particular, their carousel of centerfielders. It's been pure misery in center for since the Marlins began. Especially post-Juan Pierre.

Amazing video, really encapsulates the dark feelings of watching the Braves post-chipper in the 2010s, combined with the absolute highs of the end of the decade with the rise of Riley and the World Series championship. I used to think as a kid growing up that my dad and I had it rough sitting though that abysmal team and wondering if I could ever see my favorite team be good again just like how my dad described the mid 90s-early 00s teams, but now, as a full grown adult knowing what would happen in the years to come I wouldn’t trade it for anything. The memories of Juan Uribe, Jace Peterson, Kelly Johnson, Nick Swisher, and all of the forgetful names of the Dark Ages Braves will live in my head as great memories of sharing a hatred of our favorite team with my dad

That music was blaring at times, even without headphones. But amazing job overall!
