    Alex Rios has gone 197 atbats without a homerun. Can the Reds keep him in the yard?

    Real slow. In fact, it wouldn't load up a minute ago. I posted on the peanut gallery to see if everyone was over there.

    Norris leading off takes a curve for a ball then grounds to 2nd. 1 down.

    Very slow tonight indeed.

    Not that the Reds and Arroyo are giving us much positive to talk about.

    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

    Dusty is simply awesome. Let's just see how many runs Arroyo can give up in the 1st.

    You realize that Dusty has to watch out for the careers of 11 other pitchers, don't you?

    This isn't the playoffs; he can't drive this already mediocre bullpen into the ground.

    This team needs starters; Arroyo has been officially scratched off the list of options.

    Nah. It has to be Dusty's fault. Doesn't it?

    Waht would a game thread be without a ...blame Dusty for no reason that has any reason at all.

    Too bad Clay Kirby or Santo Alcala is not in the bullpen for long relief.

    Reminds me of that game in SD in 1969 when i gave up about the same amount of runs....against an expansion team!

    Arroyo is building his new home in Milton Estates.

    I'd trade Arroyo for a crate of jock straps.

    Bronson's trade value is melting away faster than a mountain snowbank on a hot day.
