I thought it said A $5,000 bond was posted Friday afternoon for his release from the county jail.

partying with the braves could be cool - furcal ain't half the lush bobby cox is, andruw could hook you up with some poledancer unless you're more in the mood for some chickenwings in which case larry's the man to talk to. if julio came in with the jesus talk you could just do the 'what was it like to play with nap lajoie?' and i'm sure that never gets old. giles might have small man's disease, it could suck to roll with him.

Dude, doesn't FURCAL have the Small Man's Disease?

I think he has Young Man's Disease (aka the Pujols factor):

At the time of his first arrest, Furcal also was charged with underage drinking since the Braves listed his age as 19. That charge was dropped when the investigation revealed that he was actually three years older.

When I was much younger, I "partied" with the Braves. Somehow a friend of my family knew someone on the Braves and we hung out in their hotel room during a series against the Dodgers in LA. And by Braves, I mean "Terry Pendleton and some white guy whose identity is still a mystery to me."

John Rocker?

No, but I think that his name was similarly white. This was probably around 91 or 92.
