Seriously, One good thing about the Reds is the coverage. I don't mean the really fake writers like us but C. Trent, PDoc, Hal McCoy and John Fay. This is a real mix. C Trent is younger and has a hip style, PDoc is insightful and yet sarcastic. He keeps it real. John Fay is the ultimate professional and Hal McCoy is the HOF veteran. A real mix. We are lucky and looking forward to the professional writing of all these men. Then us fake writers can steal from them or better yet act like they know us.
Mr RedLegs loves writers. Loves as much as a man can love another man. In a real sense not like Texas Red loves Frank. A real admiration.

Wow. I wrote this at the end of March. C. Trent is gone and Hal is enjoying his last year covering the Reds. Two of the four that I wrote about will be gone.
Times are a changing. Reading a local paper is just too hard for some people.

Thanks Hal for all the years. I sure hope you enjoy your retirement. Cant say that I feel sorry for you. You have lived the dream for the last 37 years. The dream of a million men. Travel, watch baseball and eat and smoke good cigars.
Just feeling sorry for all of us who will miss your insite.
Thanks for the shout out in your blog.

Young Matt, It is fun for Hal and he will continue his blog for the DDN. I encouraged him to do so and after he and I talked he came to the conclusion that he should continue.
He will also continue doing his weekly "Ask Hal" for the Sunday edition.
C Trent can be found at a new web site. Google search it.
