Big fan of the Big Red Machine. One of the highlights of my youth. Pete Rose, not so much. Used to be, when I was young, before he showed the world what a lying, cheating scumbag he is. I find the whole idea of honoring him distasteful and downright embarrassing.
Reunions are kind of weird to me anyway. I find no thrill in seeing a bunch of old guys limping and hobbling onto a field where none of them ever played. It kinda takes some of the shine off the beautiful memories of when they were young. The '76 Reds rank right up there with the '27 Yankees as one of the greatest teams of all times. I prefer to remember them that way.
