    I'd probably vote for Harang as biggest disappointment. Although his forearm stiffness gives him a legitimate excuse.

    Not to mention that Bruce's fragile self confidence will be ruined by Patterson getting the start.

    This team has been darn-near unwatchable this series. So why am I still watching?

    Keppinger has been pretty bad as well. At least since his return from the DL.

    Corey Patterson with an error.

    I'm not. Radio for me. I simply can't watch things like Patterson and Keppinger just did. Drives me nuts. This inning we have a passed ball leading to a run and an errant throw resulting in an error--the second of the game and we're only in the 3rd inning.

    Now Fogg walks his third man of the inning. And some say that this team is close to contending?

    Maybe this is the reason for the lack of respect for game threads lately.

    Fogg grunts like Sharapova.

    Who said this? The only people who thought that this team was close to contending were Bob and Wayne.

    Bob, Wayne, and now Jockkety for three. Oh yeah, and the Polyanna bunch.

    True. Though I've always known the guy was bench player in starter's clothes.

    Nothing gets this board so duped as a good 300 ABs.

    This might be the worst series I've seen the Reds play all year. The Rockies are just absolutely beating our brains in. I can't wait to see them leave town.

    Yeah, they're trying to keep butts in bleachers though

    I fully believe that Wayne built a lot of his reputation on small sample sizes. The board lauded moves like D Ross and Kepp because they gave the team a very good few hundred ABs.
