Cincinnati Rednecks

[Supreme Olajuwon]

These are some of the people likely to make the Cincinnati Reds opening day roster this year. Seriously, these people are millionaires...

no truth to the rumor that they are changing their name to the Kentucky Reds

[FakeLaser]

lol

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Thats baseball

[Supreme Olajuwon]

no that's NASCAR

[MVP]

Is Cincinnati the whitest team in baseball?

[ct2k]

rofl @ Bronson Arroyo's cornrows

[Loose Cannon]

lol Homer Baily

[Loose Cannon]

David "Homer" Bailey Jr. is the real McCoy. He drives a Ford F-150 diesel pickup truck, wears boots and a cowboy hat and spends his free time hunting in the woods back of his father's egg farm. "Right now it's wild boar season," he says. "I cut the tusks out and keep a collection in my room."

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Whatever as long as he lives up to the hype. And if he could win 3 or 4 Cy Youngs that'd be cool too.

[Moonax]

Is that Ryan Freel's mug shot or something?

Man they need to sign up BDC and then they'd be set.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

yeah Freel got a DUI a year or two ago

[FakeLaser]

lol, this is the most underrated thread on TPWW.

Picture of Adam Dunn is "Pretty ROFL"

[Moonax]

When I saw the Blue Jays a couple of years back they had a reliever run out to 'Maybe it's because I'm a Redneck'.

Should be the team song...

<font color=goldenrod>Really wish the Mets could have traded for Bronson Arroyo this offseason. He's having a decent year that would probably be even better at Citi Field, he always seems to kill the Mets, and he just seems like a hella fun guy to have around.</font>

[Nervous Ferret]

lol I love this thread. I used to think about it every once in awhile even before you bumped it. The Adam Dunn pic was great.

Remember that time The Miz shat all over Scott Hatteberg?
EDIT: Here is the post


I can't think of a player less valuable than Scott Hatteberg. He has the lowest OPS of any 1B/DH with 200+ PA's. 1B/DH is your power position, Hatte supplied a big 7 homers this year. He is #4 in GIDP in the AL, the 3 ahead of him having many more plate appearances. He doesn't hit for power or average, he doesn't even hit sac flies. But if you need a double play he's your guy. Defensively he's as bad as 1B's come, he's now at the point where he's too shitty to play 1B every day at the MLB level so if a DH with a .675 OPS is what you're looking for then you've hit the jackpot.

The only positive thing I can think to say about this guy is he makes the pitcher throw alot of pitches and he doesn't K much. So if you need a guy to come off the bench and draw a walk late in a game he might be okay. But he's completely useless as an everyday player.

A tribute to Ken Macha's great lineups is that this guy hit 4th 5th or 6th consistently.

[Schlomey]

Did Bronson Arroyo say SHIT in that commercial!? haha

[Jeritron]

lol at the Scott Rolen picture

His now wife, but girlfriend at the time was like a counsler at a Summer school that I went to. It was a month long school which was suppose to get your ready for high school. Summer before 8th grade which would have been 1999.

Everyone said she was Scott Rolen's girlfriend, but I didn't believe it until I saw her getting interviewed as Rolen's wife years later on local TV.

I don't know her age, but I don't think shes that much younger then Scott Rolen.

[Aguakate]

Hahahaha, Bronson Arroyo: "...shit".

[Moonax]

Aaron Harang looks like he was an extra from deliverance. I bet his family tree doesn't have very many branches.
