Notes:
- I’d imagine FSN Ohio’s ratings are going to be in the crapper for this series. Poor guys. At least a family in North Carolina will be watching the pre and post game shows for Jim Day.
- Good luck to Chris Dickerson. It’s been a long time coming.
- I almost didn’t do the preview because 1) I forgot 2)I didn’t care 3) am frustrated as hell with this organization 4) might watch the Olympics
- I still love this franchise. Thick or thin. I will ALWAYS be a Reds fan. I will give this new New Plan some time before I judge. I hope it works
