Reds Confessional

I'm an unabashed Reds fan.Grew up on 'The Big Red Machine'.Think Pete Rose was probably the best all-around ball-player ever(even if he gambled on baseball :-)'The perfect game' happened for me in the early 70's,at the then newly constructed Riverfront Stadium(which has since been torn down) So alas,the present day.Lately,the Reds have eaten up my bank-roll.So I decided to finally stop betting on them,and sure enough,they win(I knew this would happen this way somehow :-) So now,I will cheer for them simply cause I love them,not in hopes of winning.probably the most fundamental thing,but hard to do:Don't bet on your favorite teams! :-) If not for the Reds and Buckeyes,I might be a rich man,but I still love em always!||an_cheers.gif' border=0>
