Saves by Francisco and homers by Votto,
"Blogging since 1869" was our motto,
Trades for pitching that promise us rings,

These are a few of my favorite things.

It might have been a forgettable baseball season for the Reds this year. But outside of the frustrating one-run losses and bases-loaded strikeouts which #occupied way too much of my attention, there was plenty to celebrate in the greater world. And not just inconsequential events like political revolutions or the end of a war, but important things like movies, music, and video games. Jamie Ramsey polled various Reds about their favorites in 2011 - here's a snippet:

• Latos: Favorite "Thing" - Getting a late birthday gift of being traded to a talented team ready to compete!
• Heisey: Favorite "Thing" - Shooting my buck in Arkansas with Travis Wood. (check out the pic)
• Homer: Favorite Video Game - Video games are making kids FAT and LAZY, I dont play them.

So what were some of your favorite things in 2011?
