    Do I have to check my enthusiam levels to meet your specifications?
    Certinally not. But people always going to the negative reason first, and always going for a reason that doesn't give the Reds any sort of credit does get very old. Perhaps that was what he was reacting to.

    I'm not saying you always do this, but it is a common thread around here. The general idea of "it has to the be other team stinking" or "it's the schedule" or "its a small sample size". That sort of thing..anything besides the Reds did something right. One does get the fealing that some here think the Reds are not capable of any good in any shape, form or fashion.

    If the Reds want to impress everybody, sweep the Mets.

    When you say "I'm not saying you always do this" it implies that I do it at least some of the time. When the truth is you really have no idea what I've done in the over 5 years I've been on here.

    Well, I can say that in two years you've proven yourself to be a big knucklehead.

    I agree that this could be a seminol point in the season if the Reds were to win this series. Not necessarily a sweep, but just two out of three. The Mets are not as good as the Tigers and White Sox (the two best teams we have faced all year). But, they are very, very good nonetheless. The Reds are going to have to get early leads on their starters and put some of that new reflief pitching to work. I am excited about this series.

    See if I buy you any beers on my next trip to Cincy. And when I do, and I call the Call Girl again, this time I won't hide, I'll pay the $170 bucks and leave you at the bar alone.

    Jerk.
