Problem is, Jim, more people flock to the Levee every year than to GAB. If baseball is the Cincinnati religion, how come people are converting to Newportism?
Surely, there are some who pine for Crosley, no?
No matter. Baseball is here, and joy returns.
the Boston Globe and the Cleveland Plain Dealer are LEAGUES above the Enquirer, just their football AND BASEBALL teams!!
anon: NO good syntax you, YES
Along these lines: I recall my excuse for being very late for my UC graduate seminar once: opening day parade.
Anonymous 8:51, just what does the Boston Globe and the Cleveland Plain Dealer have to do with baseball HERE, in Cincinnati?
This cartoon is obviously directed directly to our great city and several of the yearly traditions we are well known for, not Boston and certainly not Cleveland. Go take a nap now.
Sportservice has upped their prices "due to the cost of oil..." I kid you not.It was on 9's news last night.
Beer: $6.75 a cup
Bottles Water:$4.25
Hamburger: $8.75
Opening Day, when hope springs eternal and everyone is a Reds fan.
But it won't be the same with Joe. :-( The man was baseball in Cincinnati.
I'm not a sports fan but I miss Crosley Field. I would go to the games just to be in that great space. No matter where I move, I felt I was right in the middle of everything. I want to say Our Lade of Perpetual Opening Day, lololol.
Thanks, Jim.

I agree with eocostello, a Crosley-esque field would be great. Much like a Wrigley Field. Unfortuneatly, the village idiots ruled against an in-city ballpark and built yet again a mistake on the river. Don't get me wrong, GABP is great, moreso than Riverfront. But imagine having a facility that is surrounded by neighborhoods, bars, restaurants, etc. Having an in-city ballpark would have helped to revitalize the city.
IT's finaly here, finaly for one day (more like hours but I will take what I can get) we can find no fault with the city and admit nobody does it better, Opening Day. I love this town on this day! Other days not so much, but today this City is perfect!(more like hours) GO REDS! We miss you Joe! Jim I love your opening day drawings could you put up the one where God throws out first pitch? To hell with the way they do it in Boston, and Cleveland. Yea it's that big for me!
Chris
the reds are going to lose
just because all the Red Sox victories and fame are banned from this site, doesn't make them not real and formidable; it just makes the readers more ignorant, like the one who doesn't know anything about baseball
hey pokey, pittsburgh pirates pokey, we miss you! casey, we miss you! barry, we miss you!! yankee boone, we miss you!!
