Not quite the lineup the Reds envisioned on opening day. Let's get back in first place. I'm over yesterday. I went in expecting 1-2 in that series anyway, and thought the Cardinals were for sure going to win yesterday.

Do I go with ESPN or the Reds' broadcast? Those are my only options. I'm leaning Reds as much as I hate it, because ESPN will go on and on about us and the bullpen all game. I still haven't seen the homers yesterday and am doing everything possible to somehow avoid them forever.
Ah, first words out of the Reds' mouths are how we've apparently not won a world series in 100 years. The things you learn on other teams' broadcasts!

That was very nearly three HRs in the last 3 pitches.
The thing you need to remember is that all Cardinals fans and all White Sox fans are very bad people. It's a fact that has been scientifically proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. Being a Cubs fan is the only path to rightousness and piousness. Cardinal and White Sox fans exist to be the dark, diabolical forces that oppose us. They are the yin to our yang, the Joker to our Batman, the demon to our angel, the insurgence to our freedom, the oil to our water, the club to our baby seal. Their happiness occurs only in direct conflict with everything that is pure and good in this world.

Earlier the Reds' guys said how the Cubs haven't played well since the break. They're 12-5, which as somebody pointed out to me is the best record in the NL in that time. Saturday was an ugly win, yesterday was about the most heartbreaking loss you can have, but let's not get carried the fuck away here. Give me a break.

And good start for Randy Wells. Anytime we can get out Joey Votto should result in celebration.

I really like Randy wells. Olney says he's a prime ROTY candidate.
There's nothing better than to realize that the good things about youth don't end with youth itself. It's a matter of realizing that life can be renewed every day you get out of bed without baggage. It's tough to get there, but it's better than the dark thoughts. -Lance
