This is awful

If we are going to keep losing games liek this, Votto might as well go for the toss out every game. That is kind of entertaining, like baseball opera.

Doesn't more Votto getting tossed...

mean more Rosie Red at first?

i was thinking about this as i was getting ready this morning. Who are the funniest people on RR? I think Brendan is clearly the funniest, and then I would go with Red Menace.

Madville is pretty funny too.

Anyone got other ideas?

Well gang another streak gone by the by

I blame Dusty
But mostly I blame Taintum
If he’s going be up on the big team….he should learn to strike out like evryone else as the game comes into its final innings.

This loss was just a momentary set back
Bronson pitched well again
Masset should be immediately traded for allowing that SAC fly.
But there’s prolly no interest in him either.

I wil however guarantee a win tomorrow.

Since we're talking about anything besides the game

This is why KISS FM rocks: They were having a “who is the craziest girl in Cleveland” contest for Lil’ Wayne tickets. The girl I heard had this story.

“I ran into this guy who I lost my virginity to the week before at a club. He was hanging out with like, all of his guy friends and ignored me all night. So when I saw him in the parking lot as I was leaving, the asshole was texting someone. So I hit him with my car.”

So that was awesome. Then they played a Cobra Starship & Leighton Meester song, so I may not have a point afterall.

I'm gonna get crucified for this
