The Future!

Man it's gonna be a good year. Hard hitting outfield. Smooth hitting and fielding infield. Good pitching. A true closer.

We win the division in a one game playoff. At Great American Ballpark. Against the Chicago National League semi-pro baseball team. 2 - 0 on a Dunn home run in the ninth driving in Phillips. Kerry Wood retires after Lou Pinella asks for his job back with the Reds.

Reds sweep the Phillies in the shocker of all shockers Division Series battles.

Reds 4 games to 3 over the Braves in the National League Championship Series. Chipper breaks down and pulls an Adam Morisson crying in the dirt between short and third.

The American League refuses to play in the World Series for fear of embarrassment.

Just sayin'.

I'm Late. So Sue Me

I have only had time to post one entry in the immortal serial numbered, non-game used or autograph posting week challenge by Brads55. So I shall give some overkill on it to make up for my lack of time spent here. I will start off slow with a card to both please and amaze ol Brad.

2006 Topps Opening Day
Red Foil Parallel
No. 141 Chris Denorfia
0200 / 2006

Why is this card right up Brads55's alley?
1) It showcases a former up and coming Cincinnati Red
2) It is shiny and such things make Brad happy
3) Chris is now with the Oakland American League baseball team.

So sit back, put your hands behind your head and know a Reds / Oakland American League baseball team fan is happy today.
