The 1st place Cardinals come to town to take on our 2-11 Reds for a 3 game weekend series. 

I'm thinking we sweep the Cardinals.  Reds are due.

@theguruyou didn't want me to keep my streak alive? haha!

Usually I'd be pumped for a weekend series against the Cardinals, as a beer vendor.  I'll only be down there on Friday night.  Choosing to work Chris Stapleton in Lexington on Saturday and FC Soccer on Sunday (I should probably have just work the Reds and then Journey).

I didn't mean to steal anyone's thunder, just trying to be a team player.

I hope you make a lot of money this weekend.  With the fireworks Friday that may help you a little bit.

No thunder stolen at all.  I figured I'd have to make another thread because everyone else it just down on them, deservedly so.

I hope people want to go just for the fireworks and how nice the weather will be.  While at the same time, I wouldn't mind GABP having a record low attendance this year to prove a fact.  I'm very torn on it because of working there haha!

I have a hard time thinking it won't be really, really bad.  And yes, it should prove a fact.  But, ol' Phil will turn it around and say it justifies their efforts to "align the payroll" in the first place, and that they'll have to do more of the same next year.

They'll probably say it was increased from last year, since half the season was under a fan restriction lol

At least the Reds won't lose today.

First time since Phil's dumb comments.

And a day off for Jonathan India to maybe clean up his image.  What an eye roll.

It will take longer than a day, that ink will be hard to remove.

I hope whenever he hits a home run, he does the Griddy down the 3rd base line and makes a few people lose their minds.

I guess I'm a little behind times, but what is the griddy?

It's some dance that Ja'Marr Chase basically helped blow up when he did it after TDs.  Justin Jefferson for the Vikings would do it a lot too.  Started with some random rapper in New Orleans or something.  UK players were doing, saw TyTy many times after wins.  All kinds of athletes.  They do like different variations.

One of the local news stations did a report about how it all started around the Super Bowl.  

Here's a video of Chase:

Ok, that makes me feel better knowing I haven't really missed anything.

Yeah you haven't at all haha!

Just thought it would be funny if India did it going down the 3rd base line in honor of his Cincy ROY buddy and baseball purists lost their minds.
