Popping in to congratulate you all on winning the Central. :tu

Hoping for a series without controversy. Nobody wants the umps screwing stuff up like last year.

Good luck to you guys too. I wish MLB would institute instant replay.

Yo-yo's up next. He either is lights out or gives up 12 in the first two innings. I'm hoping for lights out!:tu

The harder you throw, the father they hit 'em. Hopefully he won't be a 105mph bust!

Way to go Jay Bruce, mis-playing a routine soft liner to give up the lead. The Cuban Missle Crisis may have started tonight too. :sh

Sloppy baseball didn't help. Too many errors in this game.

You didn't seriously buy NLCS tickets did you? Even Dan didn't buy those tickets, although I know a lot of people who did. There certainly are some fans out there who have a lot of blind faith, but people need to be realistic and not homers sometimes. :hm

You still lose the processing fees don't you? :sh

Well hell... at least on Sunday we won't have that whistling a$$hole to listen to all game. Someone should have punched him in the face. Like someone said on Twitter, they should let the guy who puked on that girl puke on the guy who was whistling.

Better hope it isn't just 'boo birds' that we are listening too. It is nice to see them play on national TV so we don't have to listen to those morons who call the Reds games for FSNOhio and can get some actual baseball commentary. :tu

I hate the TBS commentators. All they do is blow the Phillies. When the Reds had the lead, all they were talking about were the Phillies.

Take off the Reds glasses, when you are used to FSN stroking Cincinnati egos for 162 games its hard to have someone point out the flaws in your favorite team. Its nice to hear some baseball knowledge during the games from a national team, not local homers. I like to hear SPORTS commentary. They were on both sides of the entire game. They sided with the Reds on plenty of close calls. :rolleyes:

Hell, they even tried to give Jay Bruce a pass on dropping a routine soft liner by saying, 'he lost it in the towels' :r

Funny, watching the game we thought they were blowing the Reds!...:r....I mean how many times did we have to hear about how great a game Arroyo was pitching...I mean he pitched 5 1/3 with 2 Ks and threw like 85-90 pitches :sh...anyway funny how different we heard the game...sloppy baseball thats for sure....

I thought Arroyo pitched a great game. He's not known for his K's and if it wasn't for 2 errors he wouldn't have given up a run. IMO he was really smart with his locations and speeds. Still can't believe our 2 best infielders booted a couple of balls :sh

Boy, you are SO wrong with that comment! Have you ever even talked to any one of the Reds announcers? I have, and they sure aren't morons. Sometimes you need to engage your brain before opening your Fresser, brother!

I might not call them morons, but they do an awful job at calling the game. Son of Marty just rambles on the whole game telling stories.

Marty and The Cowboy are the ones I like; I could care less about the rest of them.

I am not calling them morons as people. ;s

I was commenting on their useless talk they use to fill the gaps in boring games and how they are so 1000% biased to anything Reds. I realize they are paid to cheer for the Reds, but you need to maintain some subjectiveness to your covering of the game. But its claims like "Jay Bruce is the best RF and maybe OF in major league baseball right now" that really show the mentality of their job. There are homers, but I really don't want to hear them tell me how great every player is and how they should all be All-Stars, Gold Glover's and future HOF'ers. I am a sports fan first, I want to hear about the game, not have the Reds shoved down my throat. :2

I agree 100% except for Marty and Brantley. I love that duo on the radio.:tu

Son of Marty has gotten better, but he's still not good. I don't mind him calling NFL games on FOX, but he does nothing but tell crazy stories during Reds games.

There is a knob or button on your tv and remote with "volume" on it. Easy enough not to have to listen to them. I guess you guys must really have hated Joe Nuxhall, the biggest homer on God's earth.

Nuxhall was a legend. I don't have a problem with the announcers rooting for the Reds (God knows I get enough of the commentators/play-by-play men rooting for the Braves down here). My main problem is with Son of Marty constantly telling stories during the game. It's as if he doesn't even realize there's a game going on. He's gonna finish his story regardless of what happens on the field. He could be talking about his underwear being in the laundry, and while he's telling his story, Votto could have hit a grand slam, but he's gonna finish his story before he mentions Votto's accomplishment.

I am too ADD to watch a game with no sound. Its just hard to watch a game and listen to them make excuses for bad plays or terrible at-bats just because they are paid to try to make the Reds look good. Thats why I get upset when the ESPN games are blacked out because no one even goes to the games. I never listened to Nuxhall. I am a sports fan first, I am a Reds fan by default, thusly I want to listen to sports commentary, not Reds commentary. :2
