Cue the music. Original lyrics by Hal David, music composed by Burt Bacharach, and sung by Dionne Warwick. You may have heard something like this in an elevator or a dentist's office: What the Reds need now is love, sweet love That's the only thing that there's just too little of What the Reds need now is love, sweet love, No not just for Dunn, but for everyone. I think Arroyo must have a woman in Boston. It's her that he misses there, not the BoSox uniform. So, ladies in the Cinci area, it's up to ya'll to make Bronson feel welcome so that he'll want to stay with the Reds. You know what to do. So get out there and take one for the team. Bonus points if your likeness ends up tatooed on Arroyo's left arm. OK. Cue the music. Original lyrics by Hal David, music composed by Burt Bacharach, and sung by Dionne Warwick.

Contrast that with harang who struggled at home with a 4+ ERA. i think Arroyo is a guy that appreciates the fans, feeds off the fans energy... thus obviously he has good feelings towards the Boston faithful. Not to mention he won a world series in front of those fans. I can't stand all this negative spin, villianizing him for staying in touch with his friends in Boston. It's ridiculous.

Heck, I'm sure he had it pretty nice in BOS --- all those colleges in the surrounding area probably afford him a large groupie following for the "rich, young, rock-n-roll singer baseball player". Like shooting fish in a barrel. Cincy doesnt have very many fish, much less a barrel....(insert mandatory chili plug here) I’m ok with BA, he’s a competitor who seems to always give it his all on the field.

Then he tells Rome IIRC that he would love to be traded to Cleveland - this was back in 1999.

As long as he keeps it off the field I could care less... Now if he goes bad next year (or regressing to his norm as some fans proclaim) he's fair game. There's always the argument of little fish/big pond vs big fish/little pond. Bronson was demoted to Sox bullpen-but he was in Boston and just bought a house. Then he gets traded to Cincinnati and becomes the 2nd starter, but it's on a team that probably seems like baseball hell. But it's always bad when players bad mouth fans - directly or indirectly. In 2001, Graves pretty much called out the drunks as being from West Virginia and Kentucky, and a lot of the players were complaining of the boos - of course, it would have helped if they played better... Anyhoo, Bronson ain't going nowhere with pitching the way it is in MLB. Ironically, he's hanging around this area like a bad cold. Performed and judged a talent contest the other night at Bearcat Madness at UC. I assume he'll be performing at RedsFest as well. Just win baby!
