General "fail."

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

It just looks like the tables may be beginning to turn on the Reds luck. 3 last at-bat wins for the opposition. If this keeps up we are going to be in a world of hurt in the second half. Good thing the division still sucks. :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Jesus....

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

has nothing to do with it!

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Looking forward to the break.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

MC Hammer at the Ballpark Friday :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

You going to go see him?

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Oh sure, he better play that old school stuff too. :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Enjoy the old skool experience.:tu I thought about making a road trip for it but decided against it.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Do you still have any parachute pants?

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Not since the sixth grade.:D

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Good news for the Reds, they have the weakest second half schedule of any MLB team. Only 25 games against teams with a winning record. :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

:banger I heard that on ESPN radio the other day. Buster Olney, the ESPN insider said the Reds will win the division :banger

The only thing that scares me is that they have to play all the West Coast teams, and they typically don't do well in that time zone.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

West coast is bad news for us normally.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Buster said on SportsCenter this morning he likes the Cardinals to win the division, because their schedule is fairly weak (not as weak as ours) but they are the better team. :r

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Only a half game up :bh

Luckily, we have the power of the Hammer pants tonight and playing weak teams while the Cardinals play some tougher games. And we are missing Jimenez because he pitched the All-Star game. :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Any Red's fans see this. I found it funny:r

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I heard that the other day. My respect for Votto has increased even though I already liked him.

Reds win! Reds win! :banger

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Its a dick head move. I don't care if you don't go out to dinner with the guy after the game, but he made a good play in an AllStar game that gave the NL home field advantage and a win for the first time in 15 years. Now maybe its not a big deal for the NL to have home field advantage for the Reds because they won't be there. Give the guy a high five. :2

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

MC Hammer rocked the house, but I think no one else knew any of the songs but me. :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I tend to agree, but I also like the fact that he is a diehard fan of his own team.
:r:r Glad you had a good time!:tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Again, if he doesn't want to go to the dinner with the guy, thats fine. He may play for the Cubs some day. Who knows? We aren't talking Red Sox-Yankees here. The Cubs are hardly relevant this year and the Reds haven't been in years, there isn't a huge rivalry, its not a head-to-head game and it was irrelevant to either of them individually, give the guy a high five. :rolleyes:

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Anything good from the 90 team last night? I hear Eric Davis (The MAN!) said that they weren't Lou's team. They were still Pete's team. And Lou made an appearance on the screen w/ his Cubs hat still on.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Sabo inducted into Reds Hall of Fame last night.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Travis Wood was Awesome today. Too bad our offense couldn't get the job done. Ten left stranded...

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Yeah. Nice job by Brandon Phillps today. 0-5 :td

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Can't fault him...looks like the entire team fell flat today. If I'm not mistaken he had a HR and 3 RBI's last night.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I know... I just hate his constant HR swing. In the last at bat of the game, all the closer threw him were breaking balls down and away. Rather than just make contact, he kept swinging for the fences :td

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Kind of like the rest of our team. There is no true leadoff hitter on the team. 2 out of 3 isn't bad, would have been only one if we faced Jimenez, but we got two wins off a bad team. On to another bad team next too. :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

It was a bad at bat, but you can't blame him for the loss. It was a team effort. The only one who gets no blame in this one is Wood.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Reds win! Reds win! :banger

Facing Strasburg tonight....

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I'm nervous about this one. I hope we light him up!

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

That would be awesome! :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Not looking good tonight... I'm guessing we'll be 1 1/2 back in the morning.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I am not sure what to think about them signing Isringhausen. Thoughts?

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Uggh down 3 in the top of the 9th... welp there goes the wildcard too...

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

It's a waste IMHO.
I'm depressed too, but it's not over yet.:tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

How is it that Cabrera is all of a sudden turning into a hitting machine, yet the rest of the team is looking pathetic as of late? Game over...:td

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

The real issue is the hot and cold streaks the Reds get into... 7 runs in one game... none in the next.... grrrr I wanna see another world series in Cincinnati... I was 7 and went to both games in Cincinnati... what an experience!!!!

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Got to keep the Cards losing, because we certainly aren't looking good right now. :td


Why does Drew Stubbs suck so bad? :hm

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Right in the thick of the wild card race with Colorado and San Fran, though. Good be worse,,,could be the Cubs. :r

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

True dat.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

By the end of the season I doubt the second place in the team figures to be the wild card team though. :hm

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Reds win! Reds win! :banger

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

That's what I'm worried about as well. The Reds need to win out if they want to have a shot at postseason...

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Considering the Reds and Cardinals have enough games left against each other that one of them could have ten more losses than the other, I don't think its going to look good for the second place team in the division. The winner of the division will likely lose the first round of the playoffs regardless, this division is too weak and doesn't shape up well for a post season run :rolleyes:

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Jayson Werth is available. Anyone else other than me think this could be a good trade? Move him to CF or LF?

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

We could use a decent CF :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Reds win :banger

Stubbs still sucks :td

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Reds win! Reds win! :banger
