I still have to see if the reds won every day. It's kind of like some bad drug I have to do knowing that the drug isn't available and I'll die if I even look at it much less take it.

I tried to get back into it with my kids, taking them to games. But once their bellies were filled with ice cream, pretzels, etc. they were ready to leave - usually about the 3rd inning. Baseball is just too slow for this new generation and this old guy also (sad because I played most of my life and loved the game). Bring on football.

Flash forward four months:
God, the Bengals are stinking it up. When does baseball season start?

I wonder, when exactly the NFL took over? The NFL is now the most popular sport in America, and it's not even close. I grew up watching/playing baseball, but the older I get, the less interested I become.
It's odd too, because football isn't the most fast-paced sport either. I mean, in comparison to baseball it is, but not in comparison to basketball. Football is also a very complex sport as well, which makes it a little odd to be the most popular. I mean, a lot of kids/women don't understand football. They don't understand downs/plays/positions etc. Football is a big head game. I would say on average, Football players are more intelligent than the average NBA/MLB players.

The Reds have struggled in recent years to keep us remotely interested in them until football arrives. That is OK, because I feel that there is some mystical force that prevents them both from being good at the same time.
This is the Bengal's year.

Yea, this has been a frustrating season for the Reds, but we all were (or should have been) counting down the days until Bengals TC before April because we knew the Reds were going to be bad. With that said, there have been some exciting moments and some early winning that kept me periodically watching Reds games this season up until now. Won't watch another game likely the rest of the season though.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive. Sorry for Party Rocking!

I too find basketball relatively boring, and that's primarily because the slightest contact draws a foul. I'd be more interested in basketball if it teams could play more physical defense (almost to the point of street ball). And I despise how the last few minutes of a game takes like a half hour due to all the timeouts.
