Okay, had it not been for the incredible game on the 22nd, I could honestly say I was just teetering between Reds and White Sox, (my site explains my dilemma), but Freel rocked my sox…a man with that much heart deserves our support! Go REDS! P.S. I love your site! It’s way cooler than mine, but I’m just a teacher at home for the summer with a tiny crush on Freel:) http://www.iloveryanfreel.blogspot.com
