Yeah Walts made so many great deals.

Well, I had fun with you guys this season. Sigh.

Time to go drink. Heavily. Maybe I'll wake up and it's a bad dream.

Re: Reds vs. Giants 10/11/12: NLDS Game 5

I harped on this all year............First off, This playoff series was lost before the trade deadline when Walt & Co did nothing to address the offense. They knew we needed offensive help, especially left handed hitters, but went on the cheap and wouldn't spend any more. Either you are all in, or you are not. I guess they weren't. Chances like this to go all the way don't come often. This may have been be our ONLY shot with the Votto's, Phillips, etc. You don't know what the next years will bring; injuries, poor performances, etc. This was our year. We were here, but Walt & Co FAILED to get us what we needed to get us over the top. I put 100% of the blame on Walt and Co.
I did question Dusty's lineups and some of his decisions, but in Dusty's defense, he could only play the players he was given. I said earlier this year we would go down in the first round of the playoffs because of the offensive problems.
This is a more dissapointing ending than 2010.

I don't even want Duty back, give him talent and he can win in the RS he but can't make it work in October and when things start to snowball he has no answer for it.
