My top 5 sports FIGURES,of Cincinnati,it isn't all about their athletic skills it's also what they mean to me and Cincinnati.All current,parts of Cincy.

1.Brandon Phillips-Always smiling,always,take a look during a game.He reall loves the game.He is a great Defensive player as well as going 30-30 last year.

2.Marty Brennamen-He is the voice of Reds baseball,on 700 WLW."And this one belongs to the reds" signafies the game is over.

3.Ryan Freel-His all out hustle gives the fans a treat to watch.He gets a lot out of little talent.The first one to get his jersey dirty.

4.Josh Duncan-The great Big man for Xavier,can shoot all over the floor and has an array of skills.A joy to watch.

5.Billy Hatcher-A key contributer in the Reds 1990 coast-to-coast world series run.He is the currnet first base coach.He interacts with the fans.Down to earth,and loves the game.I've never met him,yet I feel as if we have a coonection.

6.Carson Palmer-He's our QB,what else can I say?He does charity work in the Cincinnati record.

7.Aaron Harang-Our big,lovable ace,who's very underrated.He has a program called Aaron's Aces,where are servicemen,and women,come to games for free with their children.I saw him in Florida at a resteraunt,and when I shouted his name he ACTUALLY acknowledged me!

8.T.J. Houshmanzadeh(I think I spelled it right).Our BEST reciever(take note chad).Something about that pony tail,and the way he play's.(T.J. who's your mama?)

9.Bronson Arroyo-Good  pitcher,he even sings and plays the guitar.

10.Willie Anderson-Another big,lovable guy.He can defenitely push a few guys around at his size.Anchor of the OL.
