...for complaining about a first place manager.

CINCINNATI, OH - As the Cincinnati Reds continue to play great baseball and build on their lead in the NL Central, their fans are on a record breaking quest of their own. The 2012 Cincinnati Reds fans are on a pace to shatter the all time major league baseball record for complaining about a first place manager.

Fans have been vocal in their criticism of Reds manager Dusty Baker beginning in spring training, and have shown no sign of letting up. “This is a fan base that does not know the meaning of the word quit,” said baseball historian Peter Rhodes. “They show a drive for complaining that the baseball world has not seen since the turn of the century. I think they may shatter this record to the point where it is unbreakable.”
Satire at it's finest.

If you ask me to join your fantasy baseball league and I select Legolas in the first round, don't be angry at me. It's not my fault I've read up on the players and you haven't.

A killer combination of non stop complaining and steadfast refusal to purchase tickets.
