I'm an Indians and REDS fan more REDS than Indians.
Grew up watching the BIG RED MACHINE of the 70's....... noone today NOT even the Yankees can match having ROSE, BENCH, MORGAN, PEREZ, CONCEPCION (VERY UNDERRATED), FOSTER, AND SO ON......
Then came Jacobs field and the 90's version of the INDIANS..... they have come closest to matching the 70's REDS in my lifetime.
Thome, Lofton, Belle, Vizquel, Ramirez, Alomar, Baerga, Nagy, Colon, and on.
Granted the Tribe seems to be headed back to the 70's type team they were, BUT if Griffey, Dunn, Kearns, Casey, Larue stay healthy and MO PENA, and some of the other kids come out strong the REDS could be contenders and a few good trades for strong SP and who knows.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
