    What's the buzz in town? Part 2

    Last month I asked if people were starting to get into the Reds. The response was mixed....so now, as the Reds are still up there in the standings, is there a better buzz on the talk shows, around the water coolers and on the bus to work?

    They've been out of town or on the ASB for the better part of this month, with only seven home games in 25 days. I'd say the chatter is the same or even less at the moment. Out of sight, out of mind for the casuals.

    Last night all the late night sports talk shows covered the Bengals opening their camp this week. There were 10 times the phone calls on channel 9 compared to a Reds topic. This just isn't a baseball town anymore, and quite frankly just looking at attendance they were always a little overrated in terms of being a "great baseball town".

    In all fairness though, this team is 25-25 since May 29th. They aren't exactly playing great baseball. The only reason they are so close is because the Cards aren't playing great either, sans that one stretch after the break.

    And if the Bengals sign T.O.,that will be all the talk.

    We are witnessing the damage from a decade of losing, in terms of P.R. and attendance.

    A lot people just don't believe in this team.

    From what i've read the Jets aren't making a very serious offer, basically just offering the minimum. Bengals set a deadline for T.O. to decide by Wednesday though, really hope they get him, that offense could be lethal if you add him in the mix with Ocho, Bryant, Shipley, and Gresham! Who Dey!

    Does the fact that this thread actually turned into a bengals thread answer your question?
