In somewhat related nerdiness, our main man Youk is getting a SECOND McFarlane this year. McFarlane MLB Series 26 is scheduled to be released May, 2010.
Since the Reds announced Scott Rolen’s extension through 2012, we heard a couple of TV and radio people subtly voice skepticism and point out that he’s 34 and injury-prone. But none of it was coming from anyone we have much respect for … same sarcastic folks who tend to criticize everything the Reds do.
It did grab our attention, however, when former Reds general manager Jim Bowden, who has been co-hosting “Baseball This Morning” on SIRIUS XM Radio’s MLB Home Plate channel, questioned the deal because of Rolen’s advancing age, history of injuries and declining power.
“It’s very disappointing to me committing that amount of money without knowing that Scott Rolen can bounce back,” Bowden said.
Zing.
If it’s any consolation, Jim’s not afraid to take shots at the Nationals either.
Dan Steinberg pointed out on his D.C. Sports Bog that Bowden ripped the Nats for the Ivan Rodriguez deal earlier this month.
“Following in the footsteps of Paul LoDuca and Dmitri Young, another bad [signing] by the Nationals,” Bowden said, as the world’s irony scale exploded. “This time by a new GM, at least,” he said, as [co-host Steve] Davis laughed.
Note: You may want to call first (before driving out there) if you’re considering feeding your Big Red Appetite at the Boston Market. It seems they’re known to temporarily run out of food from time to time.
Apparently, a Cincinnati Reds supporter is a wanted man in Kansas City. We just can’t catch a break, can we?
Two outs left in last nights game and you cut to the Best Damn Sports Show…nice. Anyone else have this problem, or was it just us Kentuckians?
What the hell, Tom? Gettin’ tossed in the pokey on child support charges? This is stuff that some Bengal would do (Darnay Scott, James Francis, Eric Thomas, James Brooks, etc.) and we can’t be havin’ it, dude.
Woah.. the mug shot is not lookin’ too good, Tom.
Looks like The Rocket is getting hat buying tips from Charlie Hustle. We can’t say we blame him though – Pete’s always been so fashionable.
And lives to tell about it.
*Don’t crank your speakers if you gotz kidz up in ‘er. Just sayin’.
OMGreds treked to the Reds Hall of Fame and Museum on this lazy winter Saturday and we found that David Ross is still kicking it on the lineup board at Great American. What’s up with that?
We did find some great old-school Mr. Redlegs logos while putzing around today. You know how we do.
1990’s/2000’s random Red Pokey Reese gets the treatment today on Straight Cash Homey Dot Com. Great website about the random jerseys still roaming the earth. I’ll be on the look out for those Akili Smith jerseys at my next Bengals game.
