The countdown is on! The first "Bengals Report" podcast of the 2008 season will be posted on my web site: www.kenbroo.com at 6am Friday. Each week, during the season, the executive editor of Bengals Report Magazine, Mark Hardin, and I review games and preview games with twice a week podcasts. Our first installment will get you up to date about what's been going on at training camp. You can listen on line or download it to your portable media device.
Speaking of the Bengals, it appears safety Chinedum Ndukwe avoided serious knee trouble, when he went down injured in Wednesday's practice. But, Ndukwe, we hear, may miss significant training camp time and is in danger of missing the season opener at Baltimore. Stay tuned on this one.
Good fodder on that, and other things Bengals, as always in Chick Ludwig's blog "Ludwig At Large!"
Whoops! Not good news in the Miami Herald today about the Reds first round pick this past June, Yonder Alonso.
I'm on the record with this: Alonso was a "safe pick". He was the most major league ready of all the available selections in this past draft. But is safe always best? Well, when the club fires it's general manager in April, the staff left behind understandably scrambles to remain employed. This is Wayne Krivsky's staff. Did the Reds scouting staff go 'safe' with it's pick of Alonso in order to look good for the new boss, Walt Jocketty? Just asking.
