SIS, Why Do The Reds Hate Me Edition

PrintSo I've recently had the discussion with a handful of people about the Reds' record when they were in attendance. I've decided to tally up my record this year.
My records are spotty at best, but here goes. I was able to find six ticket stubs, but I know I've been to more games than that. If you attended a game this year with me not listed by all means help a brutha out.
Opening Day - Mets 2, Reds 1
April 24 - Braves 4, Reds 3
June 16 - Reds 7, Braves 2
June 20 - White Sox 10, Reds 8
July 18 - Brewers 5, Reds 1
August 15 - Nationals 10, Reds 6
These are the only games I have stubs available for, but that puts the Reds at 1-5 this season when I'm in attendance. Depressing. I know I've been to a couple of other games this year but don't have the stubs handy to cross check the scores. All I know is that when I attend, the Reds usually lose. I ask you, Red Reporters - do any of you have good luck when you attend? If so, can we interest you in a season ticket package?

im either 1-9 or 1-10
the only victory was against the Cubs and it was, to say the least, bittersweet.

i was there too
the girlfriends family scored some great scout tickets, with the free food and everything. That was a real kick in the balls.

I'm 0-0...
Although every single one of the… sevenish or so games I’ve been to in my life- the away team has won.

aw, I liked Krivsky
Obie, however, was a joke.

i liked krivsky too, but he didn't have enough time to really get a full grade
so he had a losing record, and goes on the board.

I'm 1-0 this year, saw Bronson's CG shutout of the Mets at Citi (the day before Bruce broke his wrist)
Last year I went to 4 games and they won all four, and the year before that I was 1-1
So last three years I’m 6-1. Anyone care to hook me up with tickets? (and transportation to/from Cincy?)

0-3 the last 3 seasons... Why does Homer hate me?
2007: v. Cubs, 0 – 6 final; Zambrano and two others hold the Reds to 3 hits; Matt Belisle the loser
2008: @ Phillies, 0 – 5 final; Cole Hamels 3-hit shutout; oddly, all 3 hits were doubles; Homer’s 1st MLB appearance of the season, 6.1 IP, 4 H, 4 BB, 5 R, 2 ER
2009: @ Phillies, 2 – 3 final; Reds get 4 hits in the first 4 innings! for a 2 – 0 lead. Stop me if you’ve heard this before, but Homer promptly gives a run back in the bottom of the inning, then can’t finish the 6th inning with the lead. Reds get just one more hit over the final 5 innings, David Weathers gives up a bleeder, then a two-out walk in the ninth, before Victorino gets the walk-off single.

I was at the '08 Hamelization too...
I’ve seen 4 games this year, and am 2-2. The two I saw in Cleveland were both wins, but @NYM and @StL were both ugly losses.

To get all Slydy
when the Reds winning percentage is .414, a random sampling of 6 games will only result in a winning record [blah blah binomial distribution 6 choose 4 blah blah]…. not very often.
That is to say, Mads was on to something.
I was on some form of synthetic mushrooms
But I am clear today, Mr. Hubbard.

jch, did you not go to Game 2 with us?
The Failcouer game was my only winner I’ve seen this year. I think I am 1-4.

I missed game two this year

2 and 1.
My first pitch game was a 1 – 0 win thankfully. Maybe I should participate in more first pitches..
Education is what you get from reading the directions. Experience is what you get from not reading them.
I was at the Faith Day game.
Better known as the Scott Rolen, meet Jason Marquis extra-inning affair. So, I’m 0-1.

Addendum
I might be heading to next Friday’s Braves-Reds tilt, does that count on my record?

Oh, I'll "make your party"
We’ll “have a drink” then you’ll pull the “nice guy routine” then I’ll end up being “Fucked in the ass”. No thanks.

Oh, who am I kidding?
See you at 1:10 EST.
