Always something. I'll give them the Phillips comment from last year, but they complain about us every time they come here, whether it's the balls being rubbed down the wrong way, or Edmonds complaining about how the Cincy doctors ruined his career (which he ended on his own in a homerun trot) and how our club is naive, or Cueto ruining Larue's career (which he was already washed up and past time to retire). It gets old after a while. Glad to see Dusty giving it back this time when we went to St. Louis and he cried foul about the weather report.

Its back and forth, non-stop. Its like saying that Cueto, Coco, Dusty and Philips give Votto a bad name because of their exchanges. The Reds fans think the Cardinals are *****es and vice-versa. Trying to be objective is tough for homers, but its just sports exchange. You have to remember that this wasn't even remotely a rivalry until last season when Kung-fu Cueto and everyone else started mixing it up. The Cardinals were king-ding for about 6 seasons in a row, with the Reds holding up the bottom of the league. Its tough to be challenged for the Cardinals, but the Reds are acting like this is the first time they won a few series against a 'better' team. If the Reds think they are a better team, then there isn't much need for the jawing and gesturing at the opposing dugout. Its starting to get very heated, but it there is blame in both dugouts.
