Florida. I can drive there, I have made several spring trainings in the last 10 years. it's awesome.

Move it to Arizona, and I can no longer go, because airfare for a family of four simply isn't happening for such a trip. I can't imagine that I am the only Reds fan in similar circumstances...

It's much easier for Red's fans from the Ohio valley to get to Florida.

It may, however, be a lot better situation for the Reds in Zona.

Pluto, for all I care. As long as the team stays in Cincinnati and plays competitively.

Are the results hidden? If so, why?

I'll vote for Arizona...for obvious reasons

Fla. for obvious reasons. And history, geography. This is an eastern team. Stay close to the fans.

As a Texas citizen, I would prefer Arizona. I might have a chance to attend spring training someday.

I must have unintentionally, clicked something that hid the results of the poll and am unable to edit the poll to make the results visible.

As of 4:00 edt Jan 21 the results are:

Fla 34
Az 7

I am pulling for Florida because I visit there frequently. I would love either Vero or Disney...the Disney facilities look top notch.

I've always been a tradition guy and that's why I chose Florida but it doesn't seem to me that Florida cities are really trying all that much to keep spring training baseball from going to Arizona, slowly but surely one team at a time.

With the offer Goodyear, Arizona has reportedly given to John Allen, it's looking like a strong probability to me that the Reds train there beginning in 2009 or 2010 at the latest but I do prefer Florida.
