    Re: Larkin: Cancel My Retirement Ceremony

    Anybody know where I can find the league average rc/27 for every year? With all my toys and reference sources I can't find it anywhere. Guess I could figure it out myself,but that would require effort.

    Well, last year when it looked like a contract was not going to happen for Lark, Lindner said "Things went well".

    If you think Allen wanted Lark back, you are the one that's delusional.
    It's obvious Allen has wanted to get rid of Lark for a long time. Just like
    it was obvious Allen wanted to get rid of Bowden for a long time.

    The Reds made every effort to push Lark out last year. They also made every
    effort to make him want to leave 4 years ago. Remember the "atmosphere of negativity", remember Allen flying to Detroit to tell Lark there was no chance of the Reds resigning him.

    I'm not sure why Allen wants Lark gone, but Larkin openly questioning the Reds FO's desire to win probably has a lot to do with it. My guess is that Allen wants only people that parrot his company line.

    the Reds are offering the fans a refund or exchange on tickets for the former "barry larkin retirement" game, just FYI. Actually, that was a nice move by Allen to do that.
