Cincinnati, USA

Date: 6/6/2010
Listening to: Reds vs. Nationals
The problem with being a baseball fan is that every season, there's a new local commercial with a "catchy" jingle that plays like 4 or 5 times during every game, and it winds up being stuck in your head for MONTHs. Usually with the Reds it's a JTM commercial, but this year it's one by the Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce or whatever, which consists entirely of a song about how great it would be to spend a week in Cincinnati. The lyrics along (example: We can go to King's Island, the Aquarium too! There's so many fun things to do!) can't really convey how awful it is to hear this song so many times. I have never wanted to go to Cincinnati less.

By the way, for those keeping track: Cordero definitely sucks. My lack of faith in him was justified once again today, when the Reds, down 2-1 going into the 9th, finally busted out for 3 runs to take a 4-2 lead, and Cordero promptly comes in and gives up 2 runs. Thankfully, the Reds pulled it out in the 10th, thus avoiding the humiliation of losing a series to the Nats. But Jesus Christ, something needs to be done. Marty Brennamen sounds like he's going to rush the field and attack him sometimes.
