    I don't care what the woman has said, the reaction to her by some Reds fans on Twitter has been nothing short of shameful.

It's a slump and the opposing pitchers knowing how to pitch us. And no one is worthless. Just slumping.
    Exactly how long must a bad streak last before its no longer considered a slump, but rather the norm?

    People are saying mean things to Latos' wife?

    Sorry that was more a wishful thinking then play by play. My bad man. And good for you to turn the game off. Wish I had the will power. And self respect.

    Respectfully, I am unhappy with the Reds. I spend much of my leisure time devoted to the ballclub, and I expected a good season. Instead, they are playing miserably.

    I'm sorry if it disturbs you that some of us express these feelings on a Reds message board.

    If we now are to have folks overseeing our comments and criticizing posters for expressing their frustration, maybe it's time to go someplace else to discuss Reds baseball.

    I don't think he means it that way. Some people on here can just be relentless. I think you're feelings are in line with 95% of us.

    Why are people surprised the Reds are a bad team? They have more "if's" than any team I can remember.

    Walt dropped the ball, that's just the sad fact. Expecting Rolen and Ludwick to be key cogs in the middle of the lineup is just plain scary. Major letdown all the way through.
    This is the time. The real Reds organization is back.

    You saying you thought they would be this bad?

    That really wasn't a good at bat for Bruce.

    Reds aren't even at bat long enough to throw a pizza in the oven.
    Go Gators!
