Eric Davis on Sheen Roast

T0day is hte greatest da yy od your life

Today, Johnson Arroyo was really bad. This is a gayme recap. Buut I'm not sober enough to does a real one with a graph that I make. I'm really really drunk i think. In the first inning bRonson gave up a nothing. But after that I think he was bad. Then he ... someone told em to right a game recap or i wouldn't be doin h this . So aynways. He was bad after that. He let Ran Brayun and Prince Fielder and maybe even Kasey Kotchamn hit homeruns. Girls are stupid. I'm afraid your son is mentally retarded. I'm afraid that means he;ll never be not retarde. So, Joey votto hit a good hit and we gscored smoe runs and the puppy has cancer. Holy shit I'm drunk. I could probably pitch like bRonson arroyo right now. I' m watching something on tv and that's where the puppy got cancer. Afeter that ejerem horSt came in and he did bad too. It ihnk he gave up a home run to ryan Braun too. And John axford pitched and there as a double play. Then Ramon Hernandez wasn't very good and everyone cried hysterciically. I think this show is Americal Dad. The fir's boobs just got big and there's a gyu named tear jerkrer. Ther's a jiy in Beignjing. And Butte and lONdon.everyone is suppose to die and have celileverity babie sto on live. noooo1 tihis isnt' over smith. Any ways. I hope ywe sign joey votto to a long extesion. He's really good at basedvall. Nobody is as good as joey Votto. I falbert puhols was Joey V otoom he awould not even be as go Tere is a chimp in it? od at joey Vototo. Has anyone seesd planet of the apes/ I love you sexpot smith. but it's okay. Iwon't remener this tomorrow. The end, my alohold blodd content is...like if you w/ere at best buy and they wer el ike . You know how much it is? Thats more thatn this Thiat's how muchn it is. lIke atn invisible butt. I think next year we need to sign a lot of really good playerl That will make us perttter than the other tams and they weill be worse thatn us. We being the Reds. Go team@ you are really good :)

Authentic Votto Road Jersey only $55!

So, a buddy of mine has a friend that can get authentic Reds jerseys for $55. I had him order one for me and got myself a Votto road jersey. Unfortunately when I asked for a Medium, he gave me a Size 48, which according to the size chart equates to an XL. I can't wear it but I also can't return it, so I'm offering it up here. The jersey is the Majestic Authentic Collection that sells at the Reds pro shop for $225 and looks great. Let me know if any of you are interested, I'm only asking for the $55 bucks I spent on it unless you want me to ship it, that cost will be on you.

Reds vs. Cubs Tickets Saturday

Hey guys not trying to be a spammer, but I just got upgraded to some company tickets at Wrigley today and have the seats I was going to sit in Section 202 Row 21 (down the left field line near the corner). I’m sitting in these tomorrow actually, but was hoping to sell them today if there are any redreporters in Chicago looking for good cheap seats. Email me if interested bgelhaus@gmail.com I’d rather see them go to a good home than sell them to Chub fans.

Greinke Starts Season on Disabled List

Greinke will start season on disabled list after fracturing a rib in an offseason basketball game. Will likely miss a couple starts to begin the season. Word yet on who will replace him on the opening day lineup against Cincinnati.

Handmade Reds T-Shirts

My buddy who works as a screen-printer called me earlier today. They are heading into the slow time of the year and his boss will allow him to use their equipment to print shirts for his personal use. He wanted me to put a post here to see if there would be any interest in some cool unofficial Reds t-shirts. The ideas he has right now are for a "Walks Will Haunt" shirt (I know it has been done by donkeyts.com but his would probably be nicer and cheaper), a "Mr. Redlegs Has a Posse" shirt, and a Kenny Powers Charros 3/4 length baseball shirt. If anyone would have any interest in these let me know in the comments (they will likely be around $12) or if you have an idea for a Reds shirt you would like to wear throw it out there and maybe he can print those.

The Reds have something going for them

The last time the baseball season started on a Thursday was 1976. The last time the baseball season ended on a day other than Sunday was 1990. We know what happened in October those two years.

Rhodes to sign with the Rangers

The deal is for one year with a vesting option for 2012, and the contract will be finalized once Rhodes passes a physical. Should we go after another left handed reliever? or should we use the money to trade for Upton... I know what I would do

Looking for an addicting hobby?

Then you will love What if Sports and Hardball Dynasty. Better game engine and 29 other human managers. My "world" is going to need new players in a couple of weeks (it's name is "Fisk"). I'd encourage any of you guys or gals to go and check it out. It's almost as addicting as watching the Reds. http://www.whatifsports.com/
