People forget the Reds had Lee May to replace Frank. Just as now the Reds needed SP then. Not making an excuse for Cincy 'cause they definitely screwed the pooch with Frank.
But, but, but the Reds traded Pappas to get Clay Carroll!
Frank was a tad before my time but how about George Foster to the Mets for Greg Harris, Jim Kern, and Alex Trevino? That was a dandy as well.

Just steer clear of Texas. Seems they "broke" the old SWC then "broke" the old Big 8. Is the Big 12 next? Now they contact the SEC? Something is amiss.
I disagree. It is still about TV sets and how many there are in a particular area. Hence why Rutgers is in the B1G.
If I was the Big 12 I would be on the phone with Cincinnati, Memphis, and Houston. But I think it would be too little too late. There was an article a few years back that the Big 12 would be the conference to dissolve.
