Will Uncle Carl step up to the plate... again?!? :mhcky21:
The sooner a decision is made, the better... for the REDS, Barry, the fans and anyone else who gives a crap about this "situation".
I wish Barry all the best... wherever/whatever he goes/does. I will always think of him as a REDS player... like Rose, Perez, Foster and Morgan.

teach tolerance.
hopefully he stays in the game, and goes now to a better place...
My thoughts exactly. My favorite player of all time. He deserved much better than this, but it's an opportunity where he can move on to an organization that will appreciate him as either a player, coach, front office guy or whatever.Originally Posted by princeton

I wish this could have ended better, but I put blame on both sides....him for running his mouth and cancelling the day they had planned for him to leave on a graceful note
The organization for just saying the hell with him and telling him to get lost
A sorry end to a great career in Cincinnati

I don't understand the news conference. Why would we hold a news conference saying that we aren't resigning someone?

The explanation behind this move should be quite informative
It'll be the old we're moving on speech....not sure why we have to hear it
