Not sure why ANYONE from Cincinnati would think those 3 organizations are great. However, the Reds have had success in the World Series...but I do know what you mean about fans from those 3 teams thinking they are the shit. I go to OU and I am from Cincinnati, and I cringe at people who were pimping up UC (saying they would crush OSU) and Bengals fans who think because they've played 2 playoff games this decade that they are awesome.cview wrote:Steve Bartman can suck a dick.

It is the quintessential reasoning why Cubs fans will never be blessed with a World Series Title.
The futility of the Cubs is tempered a bit for me due to the annoying ass Reds fans having to deal with Dusty. If Ohio State stopped accepting douchebags from Cinci that think the Bengals, Reds, and Bearcats are the greatest things since sliced bread my last four years here would have gone from being a 15 on a scale of 10 to a 25.
Blame Steve Bartman all you want, but they still couldn't get the last 4 outs, they still couldn't win game 7, and they still had to play in the World Series...and lets face it, Cubs hadn't been to the World Series since 1945 and lost their last 7 appearances.
I understand they COULD have won, and I understand fans' frustrations with Bartman..but to completely alienate a life long fan because he tried grabbing a foul ball is utterly ridiculous and is a microcosm to the Cubs' franchise (blame it on everyone, but us).
