Will they ever learn

Today, I turned on ESPN radio, to find the mind blowing news, about Bud Selig considering re-instating Pete Rose. OMG! Can you believe it? The Hall of Fame inductions go on, and they talk about Pete Rose. Thats never happened before. Surely he’ll be managing the Reds again by the end of the week, I mean, they talked about it. Why else would they talk about? It’s not like there wasn’t anything truly amazing going on in Cooperstown New York this past weekend, I mean, they inducted maybe the best class ever. Ricky Henderson, Jim Rice, and a dead guy. Those are the biggest stars ever. I mean, I could see not giving it a second thought if this was something that happens each and every year at this time, but this is huge. We need to talk about it all day on the radio, open Sportscenter with it, and have it as a poll question. That’s the only sensible thing to do.
Seriously, the hall of fame, is a museum in a shitty NY town. Let Pete in. it’s not like he’s going to be managing the world series, or baby sitting your kids, it just baseball, and for that matter it’s just a museum.
Speaking of never learning. Go Get ‘em Cubbies! Cubs fans, celebrate now, you’ve pretty much got the division locked up now. Yeah so what the Cards picked up Derosa, and Holliday, and Lugo, and I’m sure will get one more arm, but you guys just took the lead. It’s over. Theres no way they can catch you now. Last week you were a half game out, and now you’re all alone in first. The cardinals clearly blow, and you guys are awesome. Even with almost half the season left, there’s no way they can catch you now. They couldn’t even win a series against the Philadelphia Phillies. What have they done recently besides win the world series, you guys just swept the Cincinnati Reds, maybe the best team in baseball. Go crazy Cubs fans!

I know Rickey Henderson is retired, and already in the hall, but can we try and see if we can get him to come back and hit leadoff for the Reds? This is just painful to watch. I almost, not completely miss the days of…dare I say his name…Corey Patterson. O.K. maybe not that far, but our hitters suck, I’m done with Willy Tevaras. Pretty much the only reason to keep watching at this point, is to see if Joey Votto goes crazy again. I feel bad for this dude. The Reds ownership needs to step up, do the right thing, and either let Votto out of his contract, so he doesn’t have to waste away in Cincy the way Todd Helton did in Colorado, or at the least, let an elephant shit on the field again. At least that was exciting. I’m not sure how much more rebuilding I can take. I miss marge.
