Thanks for the board

I don't remember how i found it today, but it's a breath of fresh air compared to what else is out there for talking Reds.

I was using cincinnati.com, but there are some real weiners and morons there. Esaskywhirl, and SoCalRedsFan are the leaders of a gay cult of bridge jumpers.

I won't be "voting for pedro", but there are some good perspectives here.




















just messin pedro.

I agree REDblooded as I quit visting there back in the spring when I found this site. Still you'll see at least one of our trolls from over there is here too. That said, it's still 100 times better here.

Re: Thanks for the board

Glad you found the board Redblooded! Welcome aboard.

I found Redszone in May of this year and have never gone back to the Cincinnati.com boards since.

One of the guys you mentioned was a pretty decent guy. The other one, (hint: a players name) was a complete wacko. He'd last about 4 posts here before he'd be banned for life.

Re: Thanks for the board

Same story here. I got tired of explaining why Adam Dunn is a good player over on the mlb board.

Re: Thanks for the board

I posted there for months untill you realize that they are almost entirely too dependent on the crack and not on the facts of baseball. I got into heated agruements for agreeing that Wily Mo should have been sent for Bronson. I got into heated agruements for defending Dunn.

Then I found here and realized.. There'd be no agruements but solid debates, each side with facts and at the end of the day, we'd both agree that we only want whats good for the Reds.

Re: Thanks for the board

haha, very good stuff. I myself got sick of explaing why signing Juan Pierre for almost 10 million per year at 5 years was a bad idea. After that, it turned into nothing but anti-krivsky talk, but with no answers. I almost started to LIKE Krivsky...........almost. LOL, and the best was Esasky calling out Paul Daugherty. Devoting a thread to Paul needing to come to the board and explain his opinions.
