C. Trent to the Enquirer

[Raisor]

Perhaps it's time to join a new fanbase then.

The average Reds fan is a dope.

I like above avereage fans.

How do you know this?

From Trent.

[OnBaseMachine]

I'm glad to see this. I've always been a fan of C. Trent.

[marcshoe]

Wonder what happened at CBS, but I'm glad he is back do the Reds, always enjoyed him a lot more than John Fay

My understanding is that CBS fired Rosecrans in Chattanooga and replaced him with George Thomas.

(btw, have you ever noticed how flat obscure Civil War jokes tend to fall?)

well that leaves me out...

"Old Rosey (Red)" in that perspective

To Fay's credit, he was very much an advocate of hiring Trent. He pushed for it.

Even John knows he's below replacement level.

On March 31st, a friend of mine will have Trent on his show at MOTR Pub in OTR. The show is Ted Clark After Dark, and it's one of the most unique talk shows you can find. I really enjoy it. The last time he had Trent on, I got to ask a lot of questions, some of which were very inappropriate. I'll probably get even crazier this time around.

And btw, Trent's family should be happy to know that I offered to smoke with Trent, and he turned it down. He appreciated the offer though. Stand-up dude.

Heh. I went to that pub last summer when I was visiting Cincy, very randomly ended up there.

Iirc there is a very funny picture in the mens room of Pete Rose and Tony Perez.

You are a 10 WAR fan.

[Strikes Out Looking]

C. Trent is a fantastic baseball writer -- I've actually become friends with him since his days with the Post -- he's very unFaylike and will do a bang up job.

From Trent.

Can you clarify which Trent Rosecrans you're referring to here? Not to be presumptuous, but is it "C" Trent?

As much as I don't like Fay, can't recall him rubbing our wounds in the sand like Rosecrans did. That was low-rent.

I know Trent is a Reds fan at heart and was frustrated himself. But ripping the fans was not the proper method of release.

Was he ripping the fans or was he telling the truth? I feel he was right on target.

It was probably both. He was a frustrated fan himself, pissed off at the way the series was trending. Decided to lash out at the fans. His assessment was right (IMO) but I can understand the Reds fans who were put off by the timing. It's clear Trent is a Reds fan who was upset about how the Giants series was going.
