The attendance better pick up over this Holiday homestand. Every year bigger cities than Cincinnati come to Reds owners and say move the Reds to our city, and we guarantee much more money. Reds owners have turned these offers down over the years to keep First Pro Baseball team ever still in Cincy. If fans don't show up this holiday homestand, then maybe Cincy fans are too cheap to have a team. I'm very interested to see if fans show up over the holidays at GABP.Fans support a winner. This team, and organization, are not winners. They bought some fans back last year with the call ups that saw some success, then did practically nothing at the TDL to improve the team and make a post season run. This year, they KNEW they needed a RH bat to platoon in the OF, and instead did nothing. Again, "we know better than the fans" ego and cheapness are costing us wins. Until they start winning, fans will, and should, stay away.
Sorry, I can't just blindly support this team. I did in the 90s for the Bengals and how enjoyable was THAT?! This team, was supposed to be an up and coming, possible contender this season, and thus far it's been the exact opposite. This looks like a team in mid-rebuild.
