you know what man, we all know we have the second best team in the league right now, and if our offense was playing the way they should be we would probably have the best record in baseball right now too. (man, if pronk and grady were hitting .300 with pronk around 60-70 RBI's, we might be preettty close to 60 wins at this point)
Its just the fact that no matter what we will never get love. And when we do with a championship, they'll taint it. "Cleveland wins championship against depleted talentless team" or some crap and try to make us look like we dont deserve it. Its all that dang Bob Barkers fault! lol

Um, we just lost 3 straight. Don't get me wrong, love the Tribe, but you hate to see us fall on our face right before the All-Star game.

Aaaaaaaaactually...
I'm not sure how this works, but we Reds have the worst record in the league, but arent the worst team in the league! How about that!
Plus, we've won back to back games...2 Is A Streak! hahaha, ugh

I have a feeling the young one will not have an answer for this one......he just keeps repeating the same thing over and over again..............not even original!

You haven't won one since the 70's, if I'm correct..The world likes to pick on Cleveland teams...So, I don't even need to tell you the last time we won one... You still ignore the fact that you have the worst record in baseball....

Maybe you should read what is going on before you make a smart ass comment. The question asked was "when were the Reds last competitive" and I said 1995. Get it?

I guess nearly a 100 win season would qualify as a competitive team. I stand corrected. If my memory serves me correctly, that was the season where that's all they had to do was win 1 out of 3 against the Brewers to make it to the post season. They lost all three, setting up a tie breaker game between the Mets, which they also lost.

I'm a life long Indians fan BP, but in a game of Scoreboard with Reds fans we got nuthin' ... one of these years maybe that'll change. Like Frank Drebbin said "I don't know where I'll be when that happens, but I won't smell too good, that's for sure.".

If Reds fans were smart, they'd use the tactic that Browns fans have the right to use over the Bengals - fan support.
Cincy loves the Reds, win or lose. When the Tribe loses you can hear crickets.

Really? Cincinnati- 45 G- 1,178,080- 26,179 avg. Cleveland- 43* G- 1,046,076- 24,327 avg. *- 3 "home" games were in Milwaukee and the home opening series was postponed entirely. Cleveland's attendance isn't good. As a matter of fact it is really bad, but I wouldn't exactly call Cincy's stellar either.

Lame crap? What's crap is the Reds' record.
Grow up kid..........the Reds have a very impressive history of winning....they are having a bad season..........well maybe a couple of bad seasons....but nothing compared to the Indians bad history!
Be happy your team is in first place....you should not put down a team you know nothing about......I guess we all understand your age when it comes to your lame posts............as you grow, you will learn more about respect.....for now.............we will try to get you headed in the right direction!

The Indians have a bad history? Please. If you mean by record, fine, everybody knows that..But, team history? Lou Boudreau being a player/manager for the WS in 1948..Larry Doby, the first black player in the American League. Every 90's team. Oscar Gamble's hair . Rocky Colavito. And much,much,more. Don't say the Tribe doesn't have a rich history...because there's is just as good as the Reds' history. Indians History link And again, why does my age have to be brought into discussion?

Why? It's the Truth. And the truth shouldn't be a problem. Neither no, it is a problem, which I don't know why it is..because the board is for 13 and older...And I qualify to be on this board.

And again, why does my age have to be brought into discussion?
From 1959 to 1993, the Indians managed one third-place and five fourth-place finishes but spent the rest of the time in the American League cellar. Frank 'Trader' Lane was an early culprit in the construction of what became a running joke in baseball for three decades. The team's ill-advised trades under a number of general managers would haunt fans for years to come. A 30+ year slump began for the Indians with the club's most infamous trade; which involved slugging right fielder and fan favorite, Rocky Colavito.
Just before opening day in 1960 Colavito was traded to the Detroit Tigers for Harvey Kuenn. Akron Beacon Journal columnist Terry Pluto documented the decades of woe that followed the trade in his book The Curse of Rocky Colavito. In the 1960s, the team also sent Tommy John, Luis Tiant, and Lou Piniella packing, receiving little in return.
The 1970s were little better as the team traded away players Graig Nettles, Chris Chambliss, Dennis Eckersley and Buddy Bell again for very little. Without any strength in their farm system to nurture, the team was unable to move out of the cellar with losing seasons between 1969 and 1975. The nadir was the ill-conceived Ten Cent Beer Night promotion at a 1974 game against the Rangers which ended in a riot and forfeit. In 1975, the team did make baseball history when they hired Frank Robinson as MLB's first African American manager. However the team failed to improve and Robinson was fired in 1977.
There were bright spots in the 1980's. The colorful Joe Charbonneau won the American League Rookie of the Year award in 1980 and Len Barker pitched a perfect game against the Toronto Blue Jays in 1981. Unfortunately, Charbonneau was out of baseball by 1982 after he fell victim to injuries. The Tribe then suffered the Sports Illustrated cover jinx in 1987. After a winning season in 1986, Sports Illustrated predicted the Tribe to win the American League East in 1987, only to see the team lose 101 games and finish last.
In 1989, the Indians were ridiculed in the movie Major League, which depicted a hapless Cleveland ballclub going from worst to first by the end of the film.

The Tribe do not have a good record of winning..........most of us Reds fans do not care.............we do not put your team down.......we just focus on the Reds.............the team we love! I could care less how the Tribe finish this season......if they win it all....good for them........but I will not put them down for losing a game....just do not care about that! We are all Browns fans.........that is all that matters to me!
