Dusty pitched much better last year did he not?

And while I'm at it, congrats to the Brewers as well.
I think the Reds can look at the 2 NL Central teams in the playoffs and learn some lessons. 2 different lessons, but they are very key ones.

"I know a lot about the law and various other lawyerings."
Hitters who avoid outs are the funnest.
I think you are referring to the game the Reds lead by a bunch going into the last inning and Chapman was brought in to pitch and walked like 5 batters.
The Specifics:
Reds won 9-7. Larussa's moves consisted of PH for Jay (because Chapman was in) and PH for the pitcher. His best non-move was letting an obvious tiring Carpenter in to hit in the top of the 7th trailing 4-2, and then watching as Carpenter game up 4 runs in the bottom of the 7th to break the game wide open.
Screw the Cardinals. Go Phils. Go D-Backs. Then go D-Backs.
"I tried to play golf, but I found out I wasn't very good." -Joey Votto on his offseason hobby search
An MLB.com reporter asked what one thing Votto couldn’t do. “I can’t skate or play hockey,” Votto said. “Well, I can skate ... but I can’t stop.”
I cannot stand the St. Louis Cardinals. They had a great run and deserve their spot, but I'll be damned if I'm going to congratulate them or their fans on anything. I would love nothing more than to see the Phillies dismantle them as bad or worse than they did our beloved Reds team last season.
Screw those whiney, beyotches!
As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.
ABWLBs.
Hope isn't a strategy
I will congratulate the Cardinals on the same day I congratulate the Michigan Wolverines and the 70s Dodgers. Makes me sick to my stomach even considering it.
"Rounding 3rd and heading for home, good night everybody"
I will third this. Except that I would never consider congratulating them. When I got to work this morning I sent an email to my buddy who is an avid Cards fan (bleh!) and said that it made me sick to my stomach knowing that the Cards backdoored their way into the playoffs this year.
I tip my cap to them. I am jealous. I wish we were the organization that they are. TLR managed like his hair was on fire the past few months.
Have fun playing the Phillies. I don't think they fare differently than the 2010 Reds
