As we descend on Fulton County Stadium following our holiday hiatus, just ahead of the 1986 All Star Game, we find ourselves well positioned to delve into America's favorite broadcasting mogul Ted Turner and his ownership of the Atlanta Braves.  Add that our kisser this week belongs to the portly dinger machine Bob Horner and we got a stew going.  In the ballgame we watch Bob go 4/5 with...
