"You can't let praise or criticism get to you. It's a weakness to get caught up in either one."
--Woody Hayes
And the Reds are still behind them. Who sucks again?
Nice of them to start playing terrible just right AFTER the Reds left town.
I've have a friend who loves anything Pittsburgh, though he is a WV native and has lived in my area all his life. Worships the Steelers and pretty much ignored the Bucs until this year. He spent the entire season posting on his Facebook page, "Wave the Jolly Roger" and calling out Reds fans saying the Reds sucked. He has been very silent lately. I find this typical of Pittsburgh fans. If the Steelers are winning, every house has a Steeler banner and all the talk is about how good they are. When they are losing, it's very quiet. Typical behavior from that fan base. Now, we need to bury them behind the Cubs.

"This isn’t stats vs scouts - this is stats and scouts working together, building an organization that blends the best of both worlds. This is the blueprint for how a baseball organization should be run. And, whether the baseball men of the 20th century like it or not, this is where baseball is going."---Dave Cameron, U.S.S. Mariner
Good thing they traded for Derrick Lee.
