I SAID I WASN'T GOING TO WRITE ABOUT THE REDS AGAIN THIS YEAR, BUT...


Yes, I saw that my Reds had won 5 games in a row this week. I actually got to hear some of the games this week on the road. I do love a day game on the radio. But I said I wasn't going to write about this year's team again, unless I changed my mind. And a good winning streak is fun. But when a team goes 1 and 7 a couple of times inside of two months, and is winning only about 25% of their games through the middle of the summer, they're going to need more than a modest 5 game win streak to get me to write about them again. I love the Reds, but this team is so flawed, it's been tough to watch. In Baseball, hope springs eternal, and there's always next year. And there's always a chance that "the plan" could actually come together for these Reds in the 2010 season. I hope thats true, because Lord, I just can't take another season of this kind of shit. I still watch, listen and read about them, but I just can't write about them. But, there's always hope for the future. So I hope and I hope and I hope. Until next year, adieu.
