Junior night

I have to say, the Griffey banner at GABP is pretty nice. It's DAMN big. It's also great to have a Reds player bring portrayed bigger than life at the stadium. You can see the damn thing all the way across downtown! Say what you will about his career here in Cincinnati, but he has been a great asset to the game from day one.

Congrats to Griffey... he deserves it.

More photos from Griffey night are up on the photo blog.

Beautiful Day

But Bill Hall went and done killed us again. Nice to see Cueto with another pretty good outing, but the offense needs to give our young arms some support.

Today was fleece blanket day - but I got there too late to get one. Ah well... it looked pretty nice, too.

OMG! It was Opening Day

The ENTIRE OMGreds.com staff is bummed out about the Reds' loss today in the opening game. We have a day to heal up tomorrow and the Reds will be back at it Wednesday night.

Until then, you can admire the lame camera-phone-photography over at the photo blog. Are we plugging the photo blog enough for you? If we mention photo blog too much, will you not come back? Photo blog. All in all, not bad photos, but we could have done better. We didn't even chase down Mr. Redlegs. We'll get 'em next time, yo.

There are some nice photos up on "THAT OTHER BLOG" too, if you're interested. Some bullshit about helmet sundaes or something. Whatevs.

Spring training photos

Paul headed to yesterday's Reds/Rays game yesterday and took some photos. Check 'em out over on our photo blog.

From Sarasota

It's warm. It's nice. No complaints. Not missing Cincy much right now at all. How is it up there?

Anyways, got a chance to catch the Reds and Bucs get it on Saturday. It was a fun game to watch - Junior and Dunn go deep and Chris Dickerson hit a shot that it still orbiting the earth. The Pirates defense was absolutely AWFUL. My god. It was horrible. You have no clue. Oh, and I got a GREAT photo of Griffey making a pretty nice over-the-shoulder catch in right field (see above). Balls to right field seemed to be a problem... everyone was having trouble playing fly balls hit out there. I guess the wind was swirling or something? I dunno.

It was a beautiful day to watch a ballgame in Florida. If you haven't had a chance - check out photos from my camera phone on the OMGreds.com photos page. There are a few extras in there from the Beach (Longboat Key) and one from the finish of the Sarasota Half-Marathon. Yes, I got in a Reds game and a race. Busy weekend. The rest is devoted to the beach. Oh - more photos are up on flickr, too.

Spring Training or Bust

Hey ya'll OMGreds.com fans... I'll be in Sarasota this weekend to take in the sunshine and a little baseball. I'll be photoblogging for OMGreds.com right here on our new photos page during the Reds/Pirates game on March 1. Look for more (and better) photos after the weekend. I'll also be trying to get Brook Jacoby and Chris Speier autographs. Which me luck!
