It was 44, 43 and 29 years ago. It’s way past time to win again. It’s time to establish a new fan base. Winning a Championship is magical to a fan, it stays with you and solidifies your fan-hood. The younger folks and the Organization really need a Championship soon.
29 years in baseball isn't that long, but still, for a team with such rich history it's a shame nobody under the age of 30 or so have never really seen how exciting the Reds can be. My kids are just old enough to remember the 90 series, but my grandkids could give a rats ass about the Reds or Bengals for that matter.. They don't necessarily have to win a championship to pull the kids back in, but they definitely need to be in the thick of things.. Perennial last place teams don't usually attract a lot of young fans.
