...imagination, or did my taxi driver have a particularly forlorn look? Just in case, I told him that in 1932 the Cincinnati Reds lost the first three games and then came back to take the World Series. I've found that it's pretty safe to make up facts about the Cincinnati Reds. They didn't seem to have many knowledgeable fans outside Cincinnati even before they fell into neo-skinhead ownership...
