Sorry Mr. Hoover -- my profound apologies -- you've only got 9 fr#%$&^!@*&ing losses this year
The older I get - the better I was
and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)
I miss Raisor
Nope. Been there since May.

There is no meta. JJ Hoover needs to go. He's done too much harm to the team.

I'm still in favor of Price, but he's been rough the last 20 ish games.
in Denver -- what could go wrong with that?

"I'm not mad at anyone," said Bryan Price just now with fire in his eyes. And the masses said, "why the heck not?"

That wasn't geared toward you man, or anyone really. Just an observation over the last couple weeks. I heard none of this stuff when the reds were winning on a regular basis!
Price is ok -- what do you do when your closer looks like he either has the flu or drank all night.....you gotta to go with pig slop and that hanging piece of crap that he calls his curve ball. I wonder if he isn't tipping his pitches. Actually he only has 2 pitches and 1 of them ain't that good -so you just wait for the slop.
LeCure and Hoover are disasters, bringing them into a game is conceding defeat, you just know they are giving up a couple runs in the inning they work. BTW, maybe we can get Drew Stubbs to play LF in 2015, he has power, speed, good OBP, .292 BA and a good glove, just what the Reds need!
After this game, I really don't give a hoot about game 2
He should be pissed at Chapman!
Still don't hate Price, but he needs to get over Hoover. Still don't hate Jocketty and the front office, but he needs to take toys away from Price and give him something, anymore, more.
Seriously though, what the hell Reds pitching? I know it's Coors and I know the Rockies mash there, but good god almighty. No freakin excuse for all the lousy performances today. Even Jumbo and Broxton didn't look good despite not allowing any earned runs.

Dear Reds,
The fat lady sitting in row 5 is singing. Hopes for 2014 are over.
Thanks!
Reds fan
Chapman was inexcusable. Elite closers don't cough up the bit like that.
