Baseball Trip: Cincinnati.

Day 1
The Great American Ballpark.
The Padres beat the Reds 4-2.

Why Cincinnati blows:
1. You have to stop at every intersection for a red light. Every intersection.
2. The Radisson in Covington, Ky smells like mildew... and ass.
3. The Radisson smells so awful you end up not thinking straight and forgetting a bag in the hotel room (yep... left my bag there).
4. Do not trust the Bottoms Up review on City Search unless you think a "Great for family, or your significant other. The kind of place you are consistently impressed with" is looking for a cracked-out hooker sitting out front of a seedy dive.
5. Not many people live there, but their rush hour traffic is awful.
6. Adam Dunn's theme music is "Sister Christian." Really.
7. The Cincinnati Reds Lager is not very good.
8. It's in Ohio.
