Huzzah for the hometown nine...

Root, root, root for the home team.
For if they don't win, it's a shame.
For it's one, two...
Crap, Griffey's hurt again.

I've been a fan of the Reds for decades now, having grown up listening to Marty and Joe relate the Big Red Machine's exploits while I shot hoops with my dad. We talked about what a great catcher Johnny Bench was, but we never did any analysis like JinAZ's blog does. The blog is a great balance of simple, hometown fan rants and raves along with much more studied, rational sabermetric studies.

I came across JinAZ'd blog through links to hit three-part study trying to find a way to determine a way to predict MLB attendance based on a number of different factors. Check out any of the parts...one...two...three...

And in Reds-related news, Ken Griffey, Jr. is on the disabled list again. Oops, that link was an old one. Sorry, that was an old link, too. Oh, here's the current news and a bit of fanciful commentaries.
