Something about some of those SBN blogs inspires commentators to production insanity. Though they become very clique-ish.

A big early lead would calm my nerves a bit anyway... but that just isn't in the Reds' repertoire. They gotta jump all over Maddux and get a good start from Harang.

I am not going to turn off my TV or radio until they mathematically cannot make it in. It will be tight all the way down the stretch... just gotta get something good rolling. The bats were back again tonight but the RISP problems still prevelant. 1 pitch from Franklin… give me a break. I am not going to turn off my TV or radio until they mathematically cannot make it in.

I can't handle a 5 game losing streak in such a tight race this late in the season. They have to turn this train around quick. For such a long, hard-fought game to end like that is just heartbreaking. Damn it, I want this team to win so f-ing badly.

But that was the middle of the season, and had built up a big enough lead to withstand it. Hope we can win tomorrow and then manhandle the Padres.
