    Watching "The Return of Griffey"

    Watching the 2007 Reds vs. Marlins game on MLB-TV. Aaron Harang pitching. Harang was one of my favorites. A decent pitcher in a time of not-so-decent pitchers. I remembered how many times he was the only bright spot on the mound in 2007. That 72-90 team was horrible and the management and pitching were equally horrible, except for Harang. This community centered guy was let go so they could bring up some more fodder. I admit, I shed a tear when they let Harang go. I did not cry when they fired Jerry Narron, who like Bryan Price, should never been a manager. I hope those days are gone.

    MLBTV showed Griffey's 500th HR game earlier today. It felt funny to turn on the TV and see Bong on the mound. Good times that should have been better.
