A Cincy Celebration As Joe Burrow's First Pitch Is Just Right
Barry Larkin, the eternal captain of his hometown Reds, welcomed the latest to the pantheon of Cincinnati sports heroes as he presided over Tuesday’s home opener at Great American Ball Park. “Joe Cool?” Larkin asked.

Just wish the Reds got the right formula to do what the Bengals did, but I don't see t hat happening with such varied funds to work with from team to team, and the fact you don't get a QB in MLB to control and manage it all. Basically the starting pitcher is your QB I guess, but you have 5 of those and then you still lose your QB at some point during the game for the bullpen. Just not comparable. The Reds have a great young nucleus but they need more and time is not on their side with the way they don't ante up for the stars, but keep trading them off for more unknown/hopeful young talent to stay competitive.
