    I was referring to attitude. Starting with Clint Hurdle.

    I hope the Reds come back in 2015 the way the Brewers did this year after an off-2013.

    Know what I mean?

    No need. We know you're a good guy. Please just retire the word from your vocabulary.

    And I can't stand Hurdle either. ( But I sure wished McCutchen was on our side).

    Reds were 75-87 in 1989.

    There's hope.

    It's my upbringing, and remember I'm an old guy. When I was a kid, a thug was someone who liked to fight. I always think of Hurdle teams, with all the hit batsmen, as being that way. Just a generational difference I guess. Dad used to call the "ruffians" in town the thugs because they would fight at the drop of a hat. Anyway, sorry.

    Yessir, but we rarely develop that kind. Votto maybe, but who else?

    Don't be sorry. I don't even know what they are talking about. The word seems appropriate to me, but, again, evidently English has changed. My granddaughter called a gal a ratchet the other day. I was flabbergasted. Why compare a woman to a mechanic's tool?

    So they can choke like the Braves did back in 2011......which allowed the cards to get into the playoffs?

    I would prefer they come back like in 1990 or 1994.

    I agree with you. Hurdle likes to portray that tough guy thing then acts all perplexed when his hitters are getting retaliated on.

    We get it...you don't want the Pirates to back down..... but he just keeps it going and agitating, like Rex Ryan with the Jets.

    No way that's been done by another team with all "P" batting 1-4 in a lineup

    And for extra credit batting 5th? Pablo AKA Panda
    Astros did it a bunch with B's. Biggio, Blum, Bagwell, Berkman.
