    What percentage of fans are 'like us'?

    I love this stuff. I love the debates. I love the FA scenerios and trade scenerios. I love watching minor league ball and following guys in the system. There are lots of people on this site who do likewise, but I wonder how many of Reds fans at large are really into it vs casual fans? I don't live in Cincinnati, so it is virtually none here, so I just wondered what it seemed like for you locals?

    All models are wrong. Some of them are useful.

    Probably less. Not even all of us are like us
    All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!

    It just struck me as interesting how interesting I find baseball when the general population views it as slower or duller than the other major sports. I feel like either I'm a little nuts or a lot of folks are really missing out.

    Tastes are tastes. I don't like Booze or Coffee. Add my Baseball fandom and I'm a real strange dude I guess.

    I like it that way.
