    Slump busting.........

    Ok, I think it's time for some rituals. What are you doing to do your part for the bats to break out today? I'll have both my kids in their Redz Heads jerseys, and I'm sacrificing some good steaks to Jobu today right before game time.

    Hugs, smiling, and interactive Twitter accounts, don't mean winning baseball. Until this community understands that we are cursed to relive the madness.

    Infecting Rangers nation with the Howl virus would likely cleanse Reds nation of the evil that current grips Redsdom.

    Theres always Mark Graces version of slump busting.....someone needs to take one for the team.

    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

    I had my reds shirt on while I´ve been at the market .. now (german time 4 in the afternoon) I watch some tour the france and will have a baseball tv night

    first I´ll watch the mets game (7pm) afterwards the cardinals game (10pm let´s go oakland )

    and afterwards I´ll watch the reds (win) vs. texas ... (1 at night - 4 at night)

    => it will be a long night (hopefully no extra innings )

    go reds...

    I'll be doing my best to ignore the Reds as much as possible. Everytime in the past few years that life has gotten so crazy that I don't pay them much attention, they've gone "en fuego."

    That's it, I'm outa here, time to start ignoring!

    He is 1st in OBP for the NL
    He is 4th in OPS for the NL
    He is 5th in AVG for the NL
    He is 8th in WAR for the NL
    He is 3rd in hits for the NL
    He is 9th in HR for the NL

    The Reds have 99 problems but Votto is not one of them

    Wouldn't the first thing be to actually get a Pedro on the team?
