Cincinnati Reds Lumberjacks NE Ohio High School Auto Racing Cinci. William Congreve once insinuated that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

Sport is serious stuff to a lot of folks who live and work here.
They love it when an athlete like Bobby Higginson says he doesn't want to play anywhere else. They howl when a player gives the impression that he can't wait to catch the first flight out of town. Which brings us to Juan Gonzalez, who comes back to Comerica Park Thursday night in an Indians uniform after one turbulent season in the employ of the Tigers. In that short time he became, in the minds of many here, Public Enemy No. Gonzalez had no problem with the city of Detroit, nor the Tigers, but he detested Comerica Park and its distant fences from the very beginning.
