This is very sad news.

I don't know why they are not reporting this on Fox 19 Morning News right now....


Nevermind... They are just reporting this now.

Damn.

Fox 19 is reporting it right not. Dan Carroll spoke with Donzetta (sp?) to confirm it.

Thanks for everything Joe.

Thanks for all the good memories you provided me, Joe. Starting as a five-year-old listening to Reds games in secret after bed-time in 1975, you enriched my life.

Peace.

You know, some people wonder why we gripe about how bad some sports announcers are....

Well, it's because we get spoiled by guys like Joe.

This news feels like a ballgame on a rainy day...



But, welcome home Joe.

Re: Sad day for Reds Fans- Joe has Rounded 3rd and headed home!Joe passed away overni

Very sad news. Joe was an institution and he was the one constant with the Reds for my entire life. I didn't listen to the WLW broadcast much the last couple years but I tried to catch it when Joe was on. Things just won't be the same.

Bless you Joe and prayers for your family.

RIP Joe

I loved your joy and enthusiasm for the game of baseball and life in general. You and your family will be in my prayers.
