Game Thread #140: Milwaukee (71-68) at Cincinnati (63-77)

"So cold, so icy one burns one's fingers on him! Every hand that grasps him starts back! - And for just that reason many think he is glowing hot."

Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil

It's Dave Bush against Bronson Arroyo tonight, and that means Bill Hall is going to sit on the bench again, unless Ned decides that his history against the Reds is more important than the "hotter hand" of Gabe Gross.  At this point, who knows what he's going to do?

I'd lay money that Hall sits on the bench, because Ned reads this site and knows that Billy is my favorite player.  He's striking back at me for www.firenedyost.com.  I knew there would be a price to pay, but never realized it would be so steep.

[Ned called to tell me that he's starting a Web site called "firemartymcsuperfly.com." As our Bizarro BCB brethren might say, "Real mature!" Bumped, of course. --- roguejim]
