Favorite players?
Adam Dunn, Edwin Encarnacion, Josh Hamilton, Edinson Volquez, Jay Bruce, Joey Votto, Johnny Cueto, Cherry Hudson Jr.

Anything else interesting about you?
I’ve recently started working in the extensive garden at the house I rent. If anyone has suggestions, throw em my way.

I guess I was actually working the last time we had a thread like this. Huh.

1) Gray

2) I commute between Greensboro, NC and Montreal, QC, Canadia. Sort of.

3) Moved around quite a bit…within central and eastern NC.

4) Like boobs, I am still looking for the lucky lady who will give me my first divorce.

5) I suspect my lines aren’t as good as boobs’s…though given how well he did the other night, they may be.

6) I believe I stumbled over from dailykos back when kos mentioned it once, years ago.

7) Oh, let’s see. Dunn, Volquez, EdE, Votto, Bruce. I grew up a Pete Rose fan for no particular reason, which is how I ended up a Reds fan despite having no connections to the greater Cincinnati area whatsoever. I was a huge Larkin fan back when he was playing, of course—Larkin and Rijo. Those were the days.

8) I could theoretically obtain a PhD in the next several years, if I can stop slacking off long enough to write the damn dissertation.

How many times have you been divorced?
In some Indian cultures, a woman could divorce a man just by putting his belongings outside the door to their dwelling. Since I can’t even get women into my house in the first place, divorce thankfully doesn’t factor into anything.

What’s your line?
‘Nukkah (-3) at THE WORLD

How did you find Red Reporter?
A friend of mine pointed it out to me, although to my knowledge he’s never been a poster here. And then it turned out I had a lot of spare time at internships and jobs.

Favorite players?
Growing up, it was Barry Larkin. He’s the all-time favorite. Lots of love for Josh Hamilton. On the current team, I’d say Cherry Hudson, Jr.

Anything else interesting about you?
I think I have the third most posts on this site. That frightens me.

1) Ken

2) Philly

3) Cincy. For a while, anyways. Mostly in Mt. Lookout.

4) I’ve been told that I’m divorced from reality. I guess that counts as just one.

5) Bill S. Preston, Esq.

6) Google?

7) All the toolsy ones. Davis, Larkin, BP, among others. Hamilton still warms the cockles of my heart.

8) I like to hang out on the internet and root for a mediocre baseball team. Also, I run a lot.

Extra innings:

9) Other rooting interests: Blazers and Packers. Phillies are a distant second in baseball. I’ve grown into a quasi-fan of cycling since Lance started his run.

10) Best album I’ve heard this year: probably the new Portishead.

Real first name?

Anything else interesting about you?
I chose the Sonics last year to follow as my NBA franchise because they took Durant and thought they’d be fun to watch. Until last year I had just rooted against the Cavs. Not sure if I should become and OKC fan since I have no ties to Seattle.

I am Justin

I live and grew up in Hamilton! OH and go to school in the bustling metropolis of Ada, OH.

I have yet to have a candidate for divorce

I am a history major at Ohio Northern University, hopefully one day I’ll be professor Justin.

I was starved for news on the Reds in spring of 2007 and kept googling the Reds, and came accrossed Redreporter wiki when I did a search on George Grande.

My favorite Red is Pete Shoureck. The first year I really followed baseball was 1995, and he was a BAMF that year. I am also a fan of Paul Wilson, I like the crafty pitchers who have no stuff, but sometimes don’t suck, but mostly do.

I have been to Havana Cuba, and I saw team USA, under Manager Davie Johnson, beat Team Cuba to win the Pan-American baseball tournament in fall 2006.

1. Pete.
2 & 3. Carey, OH (though I did spend 12 years in Detroit).
4. Oddly, women aren’t attracted to fat, bald, ugly 45 year olds. Of course, I wasn’t always this way – I used to only be 44.
5. Car sales. New Hondas. No, you don’t get a discount – I charge my friends extra because they’re always a bigger pain in the ass.
6. From John Sickles’ site.
7. I’m old. Rose was my first favorite (wore his number in LL) along with Concepcion, then Larkin until he became a whiny bitch. Bruce and EdE are now, only because they traded away Hamilton.

6. How did you find Red Reporter?

In the Fall of ‘05, I think I literally googled “Reds blog.” I didn’t become a full-time lurker until the Spring of ‘06. Made my first few comments in the summer of 06, then started annoying you in earnest last ST.

7. Favorite players?

Like most Reds fans my age, Barry Larkin is the sauce for me. I have fond spots for most of that team, though, like Sabo, Rijo, Charlton, Dibbs, Morris, Benzinger. My small sample size love is probably for Joe Oliver and Glenn Braggs. On the current team, my favs are easily Dunn and Edwin; misplaced love for the Love Machine.

8. Anything else interesting about you?

I decided to go to UNC for grad school because it was in Chapel Hill. Not the other way around. Some guys I played music with in college were in Asheville, and I thought it would be a great way for me to pursue music while telling my parents that I was preparing for a real career. Well, about, 4 months after I got to North Carolina, one of my friends got engaged and moved back to take up his family business (slum lording) and the other decided he wanted to travel the Earf. So I became a serious grad student reluctantly.

I’ve recently been trying to reboot the music thing by myself, however. I recorded an album in the Fall of ‘06 that’s still lost on a “friend’s” mixing board. I play out in Chapel Hill semi-regularly by myself (not fun). Out of nowhere, 3 months ago, I was approached by a women who’d heard a demo I’d done a few years ago and asked to play a 90 minute set with a friend on the main stage at the Kentuck Festival in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

To get myself back into practice, I’ve spent the last few weeks writing and recording a rough-shod 16-track demo in my apartment. You can listen to some of the results at my myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/sinfulsavagetigers. I warn you, though, that the tracks are only barely mixed and not mastered, so myspace’s primitive data compression engine has played merry hell with the dynamics, especially on the high end of the “knee” like vocals and harmonica. The result is quite sibilant.

I agreed to a promotion contract, so that’s why I’m inundating yall with this thing in sig lines and the like. Sorry, old horse!

But if you find yourself in Tuscaloosa, AL October 18th, you can listen to me caterwaul for unsuspecting families on blankets.

5. When I was single – “Christ on a Hubcap nice tits, bitch…worked everytime!
6. I was looking to find out about blogging. I tried political blogs, social blogs and music blogs, however none of the ones I looked at were remotely interesting. So I tried sports and found the RR blog. It was full of witty, intelligent and interesting persons. I was thrown off countless times (As a side gig, when I was a musician, I played in a blues band called Virgil Willis and The Nighthawks hence my 1st handle Virgil Nighthawk). until I eventually figured out the terrain Now I’m mostly tolerated.
7. Frank Robinson, Jerry Lynch, Jim Merrit, Jack Billingham, George Foster, Pete. Joe Morgan, Tony, Eric the Red, and Adam Dunn – Dunn’s appearance on the Reds scene actually pulled me back into being a Red’s fan…I also lik e Hobbs and Bailey.
8. I have 3 grown daughters (28, 25, and 20, and a son 24) 3 Grandkids ( 10 yr. old grandson, 1 and 1/3 yr. old grandaughter, and a 3 month old grandson).

I owned a music store for years, worked in the Interior Design and upper end Antiques and furniture industry for over 20 years. (RR’s can still get their furniture through me at cost plus shipping and 20%!) I am known for my incisive and carefully crafted responses at RR and as a bowler who is only mediocre because of heavy alcohol abuse. I enjoy reading,floral arranging, barely legal porn, long walks in the woods and I have become a fan of sabremetrics. My life’s dream is to be the Red’s next manager and hire all RRs as the coaching staff (except Danica gets the 3rd base job)
Nest January , if I make it, I’ll turn 60…so I think I’m the oldest RR posting.

I’ve watched on Tv and listened on the radio to the Reds, the Cards and the Cubs for years.

So, its me and my collies listening to the games. The picture is of me with the collie who was my best friend for years. Now she is just a memory.

When I quit there I started spending all of my time here and now look at how happy and well-balanced I am.

1. Real first name? Jeremy

2. Where do you live? Bowling Green, Ohio for at least another month.

3. Where did you grow up? Born and raised in Lima, Ohio where by the age of 12 I developed an overwhelming desire to leave and never return to that retched hellhole. From there I spent five and some change of my rather formative undergraduate years at Miami University, regularly blowing off genuinely terrific opportunities for intellectual development and long-lasting fulfillment to drink on my roof, chain smoke cowboy killers, and pull ridiculously juvenile stunts on other pretentious upper middle class fratards. These are really just places I grew older at, growing up is overrated anyways.

4. How many times have you been divorced? Divorce is an archaic counting stat, the batting average or rbi of relationship statistics if you will. I’ve long felt DVPB (domestic violence charges plus bastard children sired) or the committed relationship index (CRI calculated by total months of committed relationships status minus total of one night stands) were much more accurate measures of a relationship success and predictor of future relationship prowess. By any measure I’m still Corey Patterson…

5. What’s your line? "By any measure I’m still Corey Patterson…" is pretty hard for me to top right now.

6. How did you find Red Reporter? A lurking Dunner fanboy

7. Favorite players? Larkin, Davis, Sabo, Chris Stynes (aka Keppinger 1.0), and all of Old Leatherpants reclamation pitcher’s of the month (particularly Harnisch and Schourek). Today I love the entire team, warts and all. From Dunn’s strikeouts and rally killing tendencies, BP’s DP’s, Keppinger playing SS like he has been nailed to the ground, or Junior aging worse than that case of Icehouse I left in my trunk for two weeks, I enjoy them all. I’m sick like that. I find watching something like Stormy working up the courage to try to fool Derek Lee one more time with his 85 mph 2-seamer enthralling.

8. Anything else interesting about you? I’m a burgeoning member of academia in multiple (although admittedly related) fields. So I contribute nothing to society twice over. I’m also ashamed to say I actually like Fistbands. Wow, that was cathartic!

8. Anything else interesting about you? I’m a stay-at-home dad and fiction writer. Nothing pisses me off like answering the question: “so what do you write about?” My wife is 6’3” and blonde and way out of my league, and my kids are both boys (Jasper and Gus). Pictures of family here.

3. Where did you grow up? Born in Indiana, moved to Chicago, then my folks moved to Cleveland after I went to college. So I have an Ohio lisence that I don’t even know the address to.
4. How many times have you been divorced? You mean, how many times did I have to disappear in order to avoid alimony? Too many…too many…
5. What’s your line? History major looking at either doing the Law School Shuffle or dicking around all over the globe for the next few years. Anyone know any ins to do the latter (preferably in West/Central Asia), let me know.
6. How did you find Red Reporter? Deadspin used to have this “best blogs of various teams” feature that RR made. I’ve been lurking for a while before standing up and speaking up this summer.
7. Favorite players? Reggie Sanders was my first baseball jersey. I always loved 2nd basement, from Bret Boone to Pokey Reese. Even had a Quilvio Veras crush for a bit, between the whole New Team + 2nd Baseman thing. Currently, it would be Adam Dunn. I think he’s one of the most fascinating athletes of his generation for so many reasons. Not to drag on, but Jacob Brumfield was my favorite player for a while, and I have more respect for Aaron Harang than anyone else in the game.
8. Anything else interesting about you? I have never met another Reds fan and everyone I have met is always disappointed that I come from Indiana.
