    Reds.com Updates



    No more power of tradition? Just a See You There?

    They dropped the black background though, maybe as a precursor to the uni changes.

    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

    The defense of tradition?
    Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.

    Is that the slogan for 2007? I'm not sure what to think.

    I noticed they were tinkering with it earlier today but had not been back yet...good to se.

    From this it looks like Dunn, Harang, Arroyo and Junior are the core of this years team.

    No, I got it: Cincinnati, you there?

    It's all an attendance ploy.

    Which begs the question...

    Which of the middle two will still be on the team at the end of the 2007 season?

    Or better yet, how many of these 4 will still be with the Reds in 2008?

    Maybe the power of tradition was roster turnover.

    It's always nice to see a major league sports team market itself with puns that were worn tired by the local university.
    Makes all the routine posts.

    I might have not noticed it before... but there is now a striped pattern background before the main information is loaded. Was there anything before?

    I believe that is new, Kitty. I was on the site yesterday and didn't notice it.

    Well, I know that other teams have it - mostly it's a logo tile background.

    It looks like the wallpaper in this hotel I stayed in in Austria.
