"a few of you guys giving us shit" has nothing to do with the end of the world comments...I didn't want you guys giving us shit because I KNEW some Reds fans would take it the wrong way and the thread would then be about some stupid ass arguing rather than the game. I've read some of your guys' Indians threads, there is really good conversation in it. Would you want me to come onto everyone and talk shit? No, because it's just stupid and is Capone'esque.

The end of the world comment was made by, I think September, and maybe someone else, claiming the Reds are no good this year. I really don't care, I was just pointing out that a couple games in May is not going to change mine or any other Reds' fans opinion of this season. We have almost the exact same roster as last year, a very good farm system, and experienced players...they will be in the Central race til the very end and should win it when it's all said and done. 3 games in May will not change that opinion.

It does indeed mean good game, but I use(d) it playing poker. Also, that wasn't sarcastic either. I really meant that you put up a good fight in your arguments.

This pleases me greatly considering one who trolls on Cleveland threads (jordo) is getting beat on like a pinata.

Exactly what I was thinking. I got "pwned" after I went to bed apparently. Sad that I found a way to get pwned by a bunch of guys with nothing better to do during the middle of the night than argue about nonsense.

I still wonder why everybody thinks they are getting to me. Haha. One series in May won't make or break the season. My main point was how foolish some of you sounded yesterday.

The series is over, so in all honesty all conversation at this point is just that. There is little substance. Which is fine. But to expect people to continue to talk about the bottom of the 7th inning from yesterday is kind of asinine.

lol it doesn't bother you, but then you go to take a jab (and a pathetic one at that, might as well just lie down). lol, yeah it obv doesn't get to you. lolfail.

Reds fans...when we look back after the season and wonder when and where it all went wrong....we look to game one. Late in the game, up 4-0 with 1 and 3rd and no out i think. I am watching it and thinking....need to get this run in and this one is over.

They fail to. If they get taht 5th run in, and maybe even more, this game is won and the reds take at least 2 of three. That was devastating to the Redlegs and the start of the end for this season.

Your math is flawed. Buck's home run in game 2 and yesterday's blowout ensured the Red's would've taken 1 of 3.

lol I highly doubt the reds season is on the down slope because of this series. I expect them to be in contention the whole year.

My bad. I meant to say I feel that if the reds get that 5th run it helps propel them to win 2 or 3 games in the series. That loss, which was helped by not putting the Indians away when they had the chance late, started to snowball for this team in the series.


Just my thoughts.....I think that set the tables for the next two games.

Agreed. Not laughing at thavoice's post but I believe the Red's will be fine. Still a LONG season.
