    Official Dan O'Brien firing count down thread!

    It seems the new ownership group will be approved after the Jan 19 meetings, which starts the clock on Mr. O'Brien's job.

    Pick your date ladies and gentlemen!

    Mine: Monday January 23 Obie packs his bags!

    My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!
