Najorf...as a fan, I want to say that this HAS to be the year our Bungies make a run in the playoffs. Palmer is ready to make the leap to the next level of superstar, Chad is Chad, TJ is one of the most underrated receivers in the league...simply put, they are going to be dangerous and hard to stop.

HOWEVER..as a realist and a journalist, I'll tell you that there's NO WAY they'll win a playoff game with that - to put it nicely - porous defense. It will take a miracle and I'm not sure Marvin is capable of that kind of miracle.

As for the Reds...four to five years away at least. It's really a sad state of affairs at Great American Ball Park. They are too many pitchers away from a playoff caliber team.

Our best hope this year...well, there isn't one. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

What kind of sports writer are you? Do you write the high-school wrap-ups or are you a columnist? Do you aspire to be a big-time columnust someday?

Why aren't you on ATH or PTI? Seriously. There are thousands of high school writers, and thousands of college writers. Why did JA Adande or Michael Wilbon make the jump from that to writing for a large circulation city paper to writing for ESPN to being on TV? Why didn't you do the same?
