End of the WO
The lesson from all this: the Reds WERE a great team, they are now ancient history just like these former players, the Big Red Machine was the greatest team of all time. In present times, the Phil Castellini Reds are the worst baseball team of all time. Castellini cries because he’s not making enough money. Don’t support him or his team, make sure his Reds go into the red so he sells them.
