Time for Edinson to kick his nasty losing games habit
I’m going home to shave my beard. I haven’t trimmed it since the All-Star break, and am convinced that it holds the key to relieving the Reds’ woes.

Bad news, Reds fans
Seems my beard trimmer is on the fritz. Let’s hope the Casey Blake/Homeless Keppinger look will bring us luck tonight. At least it will keep us warm.

it’s good to be reminded of another organization’s ineptitude

i may be the only one, but im really not looking forward to him coming back. im afraid he will play just well enough for the rest of the season for Jocko and Dusty to want to sign him to a 3 year deal or something stupid like that.

Lets keep Patterson on the payroll…....not let him play….refuse to trade him. Then no one will have to suffer the anal rape that Reds fan has had to endure. Then, maybe, the baseball Gods will forgive us for whatever it is that we have done.

Anyone hear Lance go off on Bob today?
He was nearly out of breath and screaming. Basically called out the organization for not getting on top of the Griffey/Brantely/ throat slash (not issuing an apology and doing nothing to Griffey since it is a “family environment”) and the whole “moral support” rant was out of control…..but spot on.
