To the Guy I yelled at today, I enjoyed the heck out of it.  To the BLOG that ripped me, you are wrong again.  It was fun.  Never lost my cool......I enjoyed it !

My guess is YOU DON'T GET IT.  But, that's cool.

When you call my show, you are coming to my bar.  I'm happy to pour you a beer and happy to have you disagree or agree.  But, sometimes the bartender cuts you off. And, you don't have to like that.

And, thanks for coming to the bar.

And to suggest that people like me and Willie are part of the reason that ran Junior out of town is silly.  But, everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Why don't you find out what Junior thought about stretching and working out.  I already know that answer.  Many of you don't either believe it or don't get it.

Classy Move By Junior.  Rob Butcher sent this out.

I would like to thank the Cincinnati Reds organization for allowing me to fulfill a lifelong dream of playing for my hometown team. I will always value the lasting friendships I have with the Lindner, Castellini and Williams families.

While my nine seasons there were filled with personal highlights - like hitting my 400th, 500th and 600th home runs in a Reds uniform - and the negatives of having to fight through too many injuries, my biggest regret is that we were not able to win a world championship while I was there.

I also would like to thank my many teammates, managers, coaches and Reds employees for their help and support and to acknowledge the many friendly relationships I had with most of the members of the local media. I will miss the banter.

Last, but certainly not least, I would like to thank Reds fans for their support. I really do understand that the overwhelming majority of fans wanted so badly for me to succeed. Additionally, I would like to sincerely apologize to those fans offended by my wrongful actions last Saturday night. It was an overreaction on my part to what I felt was a series of public inaccurate and unfair remarks about me.

I wish nothing but success for the Reds both on and off the field.

Sincerely,

Ken Griffey Jr.
