Reds Tidbits (2012 Season)

Nice avatar. Your team still sucks.

Thanks. I know the limitations of my favorite team, but I still find some enjoyment when the opportunities present themselves. You should try it, although that would make this thread less entertaining.

So I could be like you and talk to myself for 4 or 5 months out of the year? No thanks. I like to live in reality and sanity.

I will enjoy my favorite team when they actually lift a world series trophy. I have this penchant for disliking crappiness and even mediocrity. I am strange that way.

I really hope this team loses something like 10 in a row and completely tank. My greatest fear is this team plays well enough to keep Dusty around but not make the playoffs. That is pretty much what they have done so far.

Exactly. Making the playoffs was the worst thing to happen in 2010, because Baker got credit and 2 more years on his contract. I realize that most think Baker used the pen correctly tonight, but in my mind he did not. There was no reason to take out Bailey when he allowed the bloop hit to Berry. Bailey was cruising, even w/ high pitch count. Bringing in Arredondo further complicated the problem as he has less than stellar control and average stuff. At worst, Bailey gives up a 2 run bomb and we bring Marshall in up 6-4with the bases loaded and Arredondo still available. Baker ran through 3 pitchers in less than an inning in what was a 4 run game. That is the definition of micro and mis-management. End of speech.

You talk to yourself a lot more than you realize. You just do it in a thread with more activity.

So you like being miserable 99% of the time? Yeah, like that wasn't apparent already. :lol:

There is nothing miserable about it. They are jokes. If major league baseball actually makes you miserable, you have issues. BTW...my stuff about you was pretty tongue in cheek to.

The Reds never get me down. They also never get me excited when they are in first place in June.

It's all entertainment. I love it that some people think there is actually sincerity behind it.

Supposedly the flu is making it's rounds through the team..

I think it might be the suck a giant dick disease, and not the flu


well if the flu doesn't make you puke your fucking guts out, look at this lineup

Reds lineup vs. Indians
Heisey 8
Valdez 6
Votto 3
Phillips 4
Bruce 9
Frazier 5
Ludwick 7
Hanigan 2
Cueto 1


2 auto outs in front of Votto (who has said flu) and that dick with ears Ludwick to kill any rally Phillips/Bruce/Frazier may get started.


Fucking time to do something Walt.
