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.

I tend to agree, but I also like the fact that he is a diehard fan of his own team.

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.

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.

Sabo inducted into Reds Hall of Fame last night.

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

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.

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

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.

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.

That would be awesome!

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

elderboy02 · 07-21-2010, 09:07 PM

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

waffle · 07-21-2010, 09:36 PM

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

It's a waste IMHO.

I'm depressed too, but it's not over yet.

Starscream · 07-21-2010, 09:47 PM

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...

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!!!!

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

Why does Drew Stubbs suck so bad?
