Well, when you have the luxury of abundant resources, an annual budget surplus and a top notch educational system, you can afford to pander to the closet-drinking Baptists and not sell out to gambling (besides horse racing of course) and weed (as opposed to bourbon of course, Elijah Craig willing).
I've said it 100 times on here, but Kentucky is basically a state run on sin (weed, tobacco, bourbon, horsey gambling). Why we don't embrace this and get paid son is beyond me. Could legal gambling and marijuana really make things worse?

I don't care what Anth says, he's not the boss of me... (and this is too unreal not to share)

It's not minor leaguers and unknowns who aren't hitting for the Reds... it's proven guys who have never hit this poorly before.

It is amazing, and damn near impossible, for that many players to be in this bad of a slump at the same time. The majority aren't just a little beneath their career averages, there are 6 players at least 77 points below their norm.

The pitching has exceeded expectations even without Wood pitching yet, but it is being wasted because they can't hit. They are lucky to be 9-14.

In favor of gaming. However, horse tracks and casinos should not be the only one to apply for and get gaming licenses. In horse racing, they are being handed a winning lottery ticket. Let anyone apply. Obviously, tracks and casinos already have the infrastructure. Turfway would be a great spot for a racebook. But, as a failing track, they still stand to make 100's of millions just by being part of the industry.

Somehow Republicans introduced the marijuana and gambling bills that got through committee this year and then couldn’t get votes in the Republican held chambers.

So yeah everything is fine, really.

How’d we ever win 9? It’s a miracle.

Lou Williams is so dope. I love a good NBA 6th Man.







-How's my bet with ABH on Reds O/U 84 games looking? :joy:

Did we ever come up with a consensus business credit card in the last 49 credit card discussions we've had? Looking to get something non Amex that will only be used for places that won't accept them.

Ink? Spark?

Citi/AA so I can have AA lounge access too?

So in true baseball fashion, forgetting Reds history, you have a bunch of hitters struggling at once and GYERO thinks a correction isn’t coming?

Basically the Reds will go on a tear and hopefully they aren’t too far behind when it happens.

Thanks Anth, nothing special needed just a non-Amex like I said.

Went with the Ink but I wanted the “world traveler elite” or whatever to get into Admirals Club like I have with Delta but don’t feel like paying another $400+ annually in fees just for that, rarely fly anything but Delta anyway.

KSR going off the air:

Talking about the alleged national foot fetish producer located in Danville.

Matt: You're trying to think of all the people you know in Danville aren't you.

Ryan: Yeah, the only person I know is Larry Vaught

Matt: IT'S NOT LARRY VAUGHT




It's definitely Larry Vaught.

Player | This Year's AVG | Career AVG | Difference

Iglesias | .271 | .270 | +.001

Barnhart | .231 | .253 | -.022

Votto | .229 | .310 | -.081

Suarez | .227 | .262 | -.045

Dietrich | .222 | .253 | -.031

Kemp | .200 | .285 | -.085

Winker | .200 | .284 | -.084

Peraza | .157 | .276 | -.119

Schebler | .150 | .243 | -.093

.

Barnhart hit .248 last year. He is right where baseballs thought he would be. He is not an everyday catcher at this level.

Suarez hit .245 the second half of the season last year. Teams have him scouted well, and he hasn't adjusted, and may not.

Minus the avg. Dietrich is right where baseballs thought he would be in regards to equaling past numbers.

Kemp is 34 and does not have the luxury of having a stellar group of bats in front or behind him like he did with LA.

Puig has played 1 full season in the past 5 yrs...jury out but inconsistency will be his label.

Winker is still getting his sea legs, but has no help supporting his spot in the order.

Schebler ...see above.

Votto...back to taking too many pitches. Not aggressive, thus letting the count get too deep, and hitting .116 w. 2 strikes. Hitting LO
is not going to help.

You're welcome.

I'm sure if you looked into it you find our top legislators are very well compensated by Indiana's gambling lobby to keep it out. I was told a story by a legislator 10 or so years ago that he supported casino gambling for KY and was approached by a high ranking state pol who took out a gun and placed it on the table and told him he didn't want to hear about casino gambling anymore and did he make himself clear. May be complete BS, but wouldn't shock me either

My 7yo is batting .750, and leads his team in runs scored first year of coach pitch, for those of you wondering how he’s doing.

9yo is somewhere in the .500 range in his first year of kid pitch. Makes his pitching debut this weekend. Lefty with a lot of swag, will keep everyone posted.


If we wins the LLWS in a few years then you can get him some airpods.

Now that my kid and all his classmates are 17, and having coached each of the 3 major sports from K through 9th grade, it is quite sad to see that, without exception, the kids who dominated their sport from K-8 all seemed to have peaked before high school, and are now has-beens.

Enjoy it while you can, B Rax.

If you desire free college, might I recommend golf for your kiddos. It's pretty much the opposite, in that there are very few late bloomers...you know from an early age who the ballers are in most cases. Plus, they can still play all the other sports until they get lapped.

If you have a lassie, pretty much all she needs to be able to do is break 90 for a full ride. :100points:

In more delusional parents in sports news - my sister went to sign my nephew up for football next year and of the 24 kids to sign up thus far only 1 put down offensive or defensive line.

Good call by BBdK.

They had a girls college tournament out here last fall, and I watched a couple holes. Some of those girls were total ****. Saw more than one cold top it off a tee box. And this was in a 30 minute random time span.
