I will cut down on my icons in the future unless absolutely unnecessary. I was wondering what happened to my created thread on the bullpen. Now I know.

I'm sure it's discussed somewhere in this lengthy thread, but I'd like to see an end to the spate of "this bullpen sucks" and "I can't believe they blew it again" posts in Redslive every time the bullpen explodes.
There's one out there now that's a pretty good discussion of what could be done to fix the bullpen woes, however, most of them amount to 5 to 20 post of "they suck" , "Narron's an idiot" and "I'm sick of it". You know, real hard hitting baseball insights.
I'm not the first to claim this, nor likely the last, but the quality of the board has gone in the toliet latley. Frankly, it's hard to tell much difference between here and Reds.com or Cincinnati.com some days.
Fortuntaley, there's enough posts actually talking about baseball and offering positive solultions to the problems to keep things somewhat interesting.
Posts that discuss events that took place during the game should take place in the game thread. Let's keep the forums free from clutter.
All models are wrong. Some of them are useful.
Maybe there should be a stickied thread for "Bullpen Implosions". Seems like it could stay around a bit.
I've been to dinner at Jimmy Buffet's house, and I've eaten it at a homeless shelter. And there's great joy and harrowing terror to be found in both places.
