Yeah, really. If you're going to bitch about it go create your own thread :)

Probably because Reds fans started the threads. We learned our lesson. :)

lol.

I will say Josh tomlin in GABP will probably equal a Reds win. He tends to serve them up.

Who is going to any of the games? I'll be there tomorrow night and probably Wednesday night. Going to try to go Thursday during the day but we'll see.

Posts from game threads after the game is over (from the first page only):

Reds/Pirates game 3--22 posts
Reds/Tigers game 3--19 posts
Reds/Tigers game 2--3 posts (27 posts total..Saturday game..not much action)
Reds/Tigers game 1--20 posts


I highly doubt Indians fans get that many more posts after the end of the games. lol

Terry_Tate;1195952 wrote:Each new Reds thread will start with the lineup, then people criticizing the lineup, then talking about how Votto is the GOAT, then talk about how Dusty is an idiot. It's just a pattern that we've gotten used to and love. The series threads are fine, but it's easier to have game threads to just talk about the game whether than seeing where the talk about the current game starts. I'd get used to either way, but I like how the Reds threads are obviously.

With that being said, the Reds will now dominate this series since this thread was started by an Indians fan.

You forgot the part where mhs constantly tells us how bad Joey Votto is.

Why would we do that? Series threads are genius! You get to look back through the thread to sum up the series!

What does the number of posts impact? I would think it adds to the merits of the thread as opposed to inspire the need for a new one.

I don't know if they are genius but your question regarding why create a new one is one I have been asking?

And how him having the highest batting average with RISP for ANY PLAYER SINCE 1960 actually led to a bad at-bat, lol. His analysis is fine, that one just had me cracking up.

Keep it organized..if I miss watching a game and want to go back and re-read the game thread, I don't have to go through a series thread to get to where I want to be. I can just read a thread in it's entirety. Or lets say I remember I made a bold prediction in Homer Bailey's first start that he'd have a good year, I can go back to that thread in particular and find it easily.

You should clearly start a single game thread.

Organization combines the games into a single series thread for me. It's preference.

I agree, only because the "go to last read post" button doesn't work.

Damn it. I just saw Jeanmar Gomez's stats for his last 3 starts. He's due for a 7 inning 1 run performance. Early congrats on winning game 1 Indians fans.

This isn't Nazi Germany, anyone is welcome to start single game threads. It's what we did last year.

I'll be shocked if he doesn't strike out Votto 5 times.

????

What? Of course anyone and everyone is welcome on any thread or even to start one. Will Red's fans create a single game thread so it's more organised and to their liking?

Yeah but what if it's game 2..and the post was right in the middle of 25 pages? It'd take decades to find that!

But if I know it was during the 2nd game of the Astros series, it's on the 1st page and it doesn't matter how long the game thread is.

You would welcome Hitler to your game thread?

Forget that, I'm starting a Nazi-free game thread...not all are welcomed

It's not for me to welcome or restrict anyone. As I understand it right now the site owner welcomes anyone....unless they've been banned.

BTW, this has to be the weakest trash talk I've ever seen leading up to any kind of sporting event. Arguing over which is the better way to do threads for baseball games? I'm ashamed.

I'll get this started right. Cleveland sucks.
