Purple Row Radio - July 4th, 2011 Guest: Bennett Hipp of Talking Chop

Welcome to this special holiday edition perfectly regular edition of Purple Row Radio! Listen as Andrew and I discuss the following topics and more:

- The Simpsons and Futurama (clearly practice for a future television podcast... one day...)
- The Mark Ellis acquisition.
- Why is Chris Nelson still Greg's projected heir to the second base position in 2012, and why could that easily change in the coming months?
- Why does Ellis remind Andrew of Clint Barmes (and how is he different?)
- What's the deal with the strange roster shuffling over the past few days, and why wasn't Cole Garner called up?
- Our thoughts (or lack thereof) on the All Star Game roster.
- Does Todd Helton have any chance at winning an All Star roster spot?
- Bennett Hipp (aka SCrebel10) of Talking Chop joins us to discuss the upcoming Braves series.
- What does Bennett think of the four Braves All Star selections?
- How are the Braves different and/or the same after the Bobby Cox era?

Read Bennett Hipp's work over at Talking Chop.
