I blame the howls. Make them stop and we'll be good again.

So long as I breath shall I be a Reds fan, so long as I bleed I will bleed Red
Post of the day
yay!!! comeback time
Is it "next season" yet?
I agree 100%. Like I said, I'm not a dusty basher. I'm also not a Hoover fan-boy. He seems like he's got a solid future for a reliever, but he's just a kid. I'm not counting on him for much this season.
This team is scuffling badly right now. Too many players striking out too much, too many mental mistakes, too many missed signs, relievers struggling, etc, etc, etc. But all of that being said, Dusty's scuffling too. His management of the pen has been very poor this past week and a half. That's one of the reasons we're seeing the results from the pen we've been seeing. Not the only reason, but it's a contributing factor. To not see that is to be keeping blinders on IMO.
It's not about the situation today. I could've told you before the game even started that there's a great chance that both Broxton & Chapman will struggle with control. Part of that is on Dusty...a big part...but the mistake wasn't today, it was this past week.
reds got a good old fashioned butt spanking this series...it happens...
You can trace everything back to the manager in any game.
But there's no excuse for Broxton today, he was just awful.
As for the seventh inning, Dusty didn't have Marshall or Lecure due to injuries and didn't have Hoover and Simon due to last night's long outings.
I wish Aroldis and Jonathan had pitched this week, but that doesn't excuse the awful eighth inning performance.
You clearly weren't around in the early 80's.
These Pete Rose furniture commercials may be more to blame than Dusty.
We are a Doc Kremcheck misdiagnosis away from 2005 this week.
This is the time. The real Reds organization is back.
