    Indeed . It hit me last night that the Reds have had exactly one winning season (2000 - our first year) since this site was founded...so maybe you can blame us at some level.

    Oh believe me, right about now I'm looking for anyone to blame.

    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

    I'm very thankful for RedsZone and hope the next ten years give us more reason to celebrate being Cincinnati Reds Fans.

    RedsZone often gives me a reason to remain a Reds fan.

    Me too, and gives me an excuse for why I never finished that book I've been meaning to write, cleaned the garage I was going to clean, started that exercise program I was going to start, etc.

    On another forum I post on they have a HOF ceremony. Just one forum strictly for the RZ HOF and 1 thread per season for some arbitrary number of inductees (5 per year?). Each inductee gets some sort of internet style plaque and a small pic of plaque under his/her avatar/post count. Each member posts his/her acceptance speech in the thread and the thread is locked for good.

    10 years of RZ and 10 years of coming to this site faithfully almost daily says this is a special site in more ways than one why not a special yearly celebration of recognition for those who have made it what it is. I know some might think that it's a bit much for a message board but I think it's kind of cool to be able to pay homage to those posters who have made the RZ experience a special one for a lot of people. We are not just a message board here we are a community of people devoted to the Reds, the game of baseball and to a larger extent each other. Time to show some love and have something to look forward to every year besides the Reds.

    Thanks Gallagher, for inadvertantly pushing me towards one of the greatest group of people I've ever had the pleasure of meeting.
