Ready for Redsfest 2019
It's
the most wonderful time of the offseason for members of Reds Country! Redsfest
2019 will happen this weekend at the Duke Energy Center. Cincinnati Reds fans
from all over the country will gather for the one of a kind fan fest that
celebrates the very first franchise in Major League Baseball history.
The
fun gets started on Friday, December 6, and will continue through Saturday,
December 7. Fans can buy passes for either one day or both. In order to get the
full Redsfest experience, I recommend purchasing the two day pass. If you are a
Reds Hall of Fame and Museum member or a season ticket holder, your two day
ticket pass is free.
Once
you check in at Redsfest, you will receive a Reds lanyard to hold your ticket
as well as a free Reds swag bag with a free gift inside. Past gifts have
included a winter hat, socks, and an ornament. After you check in, you can
finally enter the convention center and behold the glory of the Redsfest event.
Inside
are tons of Reds memorabilia such as jerseys, autographs, bobbleheads, and even
the World Series Championship trophies. There is a stage area where you can
watch Reds Family Feud, ask the players questions, and get your picture taken
with the mascots. There is a game area, wiffle ball fields, and booths where
you can get your picture taken with players. You can play Redsfest Bingo and
participate in the Reds Community Fund Poker Tournament that features current
and former Reds players.
It
wouldn't be a fan fest without autographs, and the signing sessions are my
favorite part of Redsfest. You can get autographs from current players and Reds
legends. There are multiple signings happening at the same time throughout the
event so you are pretty much guaranteed to get at least one autograph during
your time at Redsfest.
I
cannot wait for Redsfest 2019. I have a free two day ticket because of my Reds
Hall of Fame membership, and I plan on being there from open to close on both
days. I'm hoping to get a lot of autographs and maybe a few bobbleheads if I
can find some good deals. If you see me, come say hi!

Football Frustration
The Cincinnati Bengals are beyond a shadow of a doubt the
most frustrating team to be a fan of in the Queen City. The team is often
regarded as stale, stubborn, and behind the times. Last Tuesday showcased that
sentiment in spades.
With the NFL trade deadline approaching at 4PM on 10/29, the
only news to break from the Bengals front office was that quarterback Andy
Dalton would be benched after the bye week in favor of starting rookie Ryan
Finley who was taken in the fourth round of the draft. I support the move.
Dalton is essentially a lame duck quarterback at this point and the Bengals
need to see what they have in Finley before the 2020 NFL draft. Unfortunately,
that was the only move the Bengals made.
Reports were swirling that other teams had reached out to
the Bengals regarding Carlos Dunlap, Geno Atkins, Dre Kirkpatrick, Tyler
Eifert, and A.J. Green. Some serious draft picks could've been acquired in
exchange for any of the guys listed and yet the Bengals did not pull the
trigger on a single trade. Green alone could have garnered a first round pick
and considering how he can walk away at the end of the season, it is baffling
that this team did not move him as there is no guarantee he will sign another
Bengals contract.
Coach Zac Taylor was heard multiple times throughout the
week leading up to the trade deadline that they want to evaluate the current
roster. I really hope somebody was telling him to say that, as bad as that
sounds. When your team is 0-8, what is there to evaluate? The Bengals suck this
season. That is your evaluation. Expecting something different with the same
aging cast of characters next season? That's insanity. What's more insane than
that? Being a Bengals fan.
Despite all the frustration the Bengals give me every week
and the absolute incompetence demonstrated by the ownership and front office, I
am still a fan. For some stupid reason, I am still invested in this franchise
and want to see them succeed. That is why it is beyond infuriating to watch
this franchise do nothing at the trade deadline. Instead of trading away
players to gather draft picks that can help rebuild the
franchise, the Bengals stayed stagnant and appear consent with the way
things are.
Obviously, the fans are not content. The city of Cincinnati
is not content. There needs to be a big change or shakeup within the Bengals
organization. Something that would revitalize the fanbase and take this team to
the next level is desperately needed. Whether or not that happens remains to be
seen. As for now, expect more of the same old, incompetent Bengals.
Who Dey...
