    Re: Votto: where's his head lately?

    Is he having problems with his anxiety/depression issues again?
    When I see the 2016 Reds, I see a 100 loss team and no direction.

    I know how depressing this bullpen has been,.....and we don't have to look at it as close as he does.

    I am in 100% agreement with you, btw.
    So am I.

    Personally, I think he needs more than 1 game off over 162.

    Either that or let the man drop as many F-bombs as he needs/wants to.

    Just a question, he has not been right for a week or two, playing distracted IMO.

    Good question and one I thought of also.

    But I am more inclined to think he is just human and like all humans we all have our down times.

    Personally, I think Joey had "Boy" in the Kardashian baby pool. Dude just can't get over it.

    The Cardinals refusal to lose is getting to all of us.

    The Pirates are also playing great baseball.

    You have to tip your cap to those teams. And then beat them when you have the opportunity.

    Our Reds are playing nearly .600 baseball still. It's not the Lost Decade any longer.

    3 and 1/2 months left to go.

    Trade him for a new batting cage and the Tundra in the OF.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

    So who sucked all of the joy out of this season? It's like we saved up for a decade, finally bought our dream car, drove it a little bit and we're now wishing it was a different color.

    No, it's not.

    It's like driving around a clunker for 10 years, knowing it was a piece of crap but looking forward to when you could have that dream car.

    Once you finally get it, because you know you won't always be able to drive that dream car, you worry about every little noise in the engine.

    Joey Votto is the reason this team isn't beating the St. Louis Cardinals' best start in the modern era.

    re: the thread title

    I watched a game yesterday, I'm pretty sure I saw in the same place as usual, on top of his neck.
