Rain, rain , more rain, that is how your day went in Cincinnati. Oh sure the sun came out for a little bit Wednesday, then more rain! So much rain it cancelled the Cincinnati Reds game 2 against the San Diego Padres.

Quick side note, did anyone watch catfish last night? It was in Cincinnaiti! Mainly Madisonville, Clifton and OTR, because that is exactly where you would expect a cross dresser and his overweight cousin to frequent. Anyway what a curveball episode! The cousin called catfish to investigate her cousins love interest “tony.” Spoiler! Tony was the fat female cousin the whole time! And she showed absolutely no remorse for messing with him for three years. Absolutely insane.

We followed up a man trying to swim across the Ohio yesterday with a wonderful showcase of our city on Catfish. Two golden lines, the cross dresser called his fat cousin “A Fat Hungry Kelly Price” and while in OTR “Y’all better be happy they didn’t come out and shoot you.” Truer words have never been said.

Cincinnati Reds

Wednesday’s game was rained out. That has set up a doubleheader for Thursday. With the Padres not located remotely close to Cincinnati a doubleheader is the only option. Game 1 will take place at the originally scheduled time of 12:35pm, Game 2 at 6:10pm.

Johnny Cueto (3-2) will start game 1 for the Reds, he was originally scheduled to pitch on Wednesday. Game 2 will be started by Jeff Francis who was called up from Louisville to fill in an open rotation spot for the Reds. The Reds and Padres are both allowed to use the 26 man roster role. Francis has not started in the Majors this season, it will interesting to see how he handles it.

That’s it

Literally nothing else in the world of Cincinnati sports happened yesterday. AJ McCarron isn’t making any new friends at Alabama, his attitude may need an adjustment. We’ll write that up today.

Other than that Wednesday was a boring news day around Cincinnati.

Cliff jumping is a blast. Unless you’re an absolute idiot and attempt things like this. Good thing, at least there are a lot of girls around.
