He knew I loved the Reds because I watched them every chance I got. He told me that the A's was going to destroy Cincinnati. It pissed me off. I was 24 yrs old in 1990. The A's were heavy favorites. I told that POS (out of anger) I'll bet you $100 that the Reds sweep them (*******). He laughed and took the bet.

He's dead and he never paid me. *******! I really didn't think the Reds would do a sweep, but DAMN! What a series.

That was dirty pool!

Yeah, I remember all the talk. I was 14....all the frontrunners (most kids that age are) were laughing at the Reds. I wasn't sure they'd win, but I knew it'd be a fight. Turns out ......it wasn't much of a fight at all, and the good guys did the ass kicking.
