I can listen to every Bengals game free, but Reds games? Nope..They want me to fork over way too much for that so they're losing me little by little and millions of other fans as well. They're cutting their own throats and don't even realize it..
I sincerely could not tell you one player on the Reds roster now except for Votto, who's name I keep seeing/hearing, but I'm not even sure what position he plays. (but I can still name the starting lineup of the BRS) I knew of Aroldis (sp) Chapman when he was pitching there, because when he got hurt he came to Louisville and played while he was rehabbing, and was throwing faster than anyone at that level (I guess I should have clarified I'll still go to the Bats games with friends after work and drink beer and watch some baseball, but it's like 12 dollars to get in. And, it's really about just getting out and doing something rather that wanting to see a baseball game) I think the last Reds player I really remember was Todd Benzinger, and that's only because he was about 3-4 years behind me in school and his dad was a coach. I have no interest in basketball on any level, so football is the only sport I watch other than occasional golf.
