Off The Bench by Chatterbox Sports

It all begins tonight for your Cincinnati Bengals…it’s pre-season game NUMBER ONE. And it’s a very different first game than those of the past under head coach Zach Taylor…..Joe Burrow and the starters are getting some minutes on the field. Remember, we’ve questioned why they have not been in pre-season games of the past, especially considering the slow starts in the regular season. Tampa Bay is in town at paycor for a 7pm kickoff. You can watch the game on fox 19! One starter , at least in the return game, will not see action tonight. That’s charlie Jones . He injured his knee yesterday in practice and had to be carted off the field. Jay Morrison from pro football talk joins us in about 15 minutes with the latest on Jones and a preview of what to look for tonight! The Reds scoried 7 times in the tenth inning last night to beat the marlins for the third time in four days. The Marlins are awful. Tonight’s a different ballgame in the level of competition as the reds play the first of 3 against the division-leading milwaukee brewers. Milwaukee is pretty amazing….they have a first-year manager, have been injured even more thasn the reds, including 4/5ths of their starting rotation, yet they sit 16 games over .500 after a complete wipeout of the braves the last three days. Carson Spiers gets the ball for cincinnati. The game can be seen on Apple TV at 8 est. The Reds sit in a tie for last in the central with the cubbies. They are five back in the wildcard. Its starting to look like we may not see Matt Mcclain this season. His rehab assignment has been pushed back again and no timetable as to exactly if and or when it will happen at all. Mcclain has missed the entire season with shoulder surgery. We ask the question today: If the team can’t reach the playoffs , what would you like to see haoppen between now and the end of the year. FC Cincinnati plays in the round of 32 of the leagues cup tonight at tql against santos laguna out of the top mexican league. FCC was eliminated in this round one year ago. And how about the fire of the mens us olympic basketball team? They were down 17 headed in to the fourth quarter against Serbia and stormed back to win 95-91. Steph Curry scored 36….lebron notched a triple-double to send the states to the gold medal game against france. Remember, that was the matchup in the final four years ago. The womens team plays australia in the semi-finals at 11:15 eastern this morning. All kinds of medals to be won today across the board. The closing ceremonies are sunday.
