Re: 8/20/2012 Reds at Phillies
Well I apologize if any of my posts are causing frustration or annoyance, but I don't believe my statements are unreasonable. I just think some poor decisions were made so far by the players and the manager. Hopefully the Reds have another comeback in them tonight.

Never saw so many doubles in my life.

Re: 8/20/2012 Reds at Phillies
How so? That every poster want's the Reds to win every game? Doesn't understand why players sometimes make mistakes? Very critical of the manager at every opportunity, despite that man leading the Reds to a record of 26 games over mid August? Just wondering why you said that!

Re: 8/20/2012 Reds at Phillies
Ugh. LeCure attempts to throw Rollins out at 3rd on the bunt attempt but the throw is late. 1st and 3rd.

My post was meant in humor and to lighten the mood. Seemed like several people were very uptight.

Re: 8/20/2012 Reds at Phillies
I can't wait to read my thread about which pitcher would you keep if you could only keep one - Leake or Bailey..........can't wait to read it tomorrow.

Re: 8/20/2012 Reds at Phillies
Did Mike Leake stuff you in a locker at some point in your life?
