    One strange aspect about the game of Baseball is ya NEVER know.



    A club can win 70 somethin' games one year and 90 somethin' the next.

    The opposite is also true. Ya Never Know.

    I'm not convinced that this is so. Chicken/Egg......If the reds had showed the type of consistent success that the cards have shown what would the attendance figures be? We can argue about this till the Giant's fans wander home, lets hope that we actually get to find out the answer by having the reds string together 10 or so seasons where they are in the playoffs or at least at the edge of the playoffs at the end of the year.

    11 seasons with 7 playoff appearances would be fun.

I'll take my scorecard and pencil and beer and hot dog and rage at the dips and cheer at the highs, but I'm not ever going to stop loving this game and this team and nobody will ever take that away from me."
