Marge Schott Autographed Baseball

Red Menace...that just about sums up Marge's last days as owner of the Cincinnati Reds. There are things that I like and dislike about Schott. Her love for the Reds - LIKE. Her outspoken political and philosophical views - DISLIKE. Growing up in Cincinnati in the 80s and 90s it seemed you couldn't turn on a Reds game without Marge being front and center. While she did contribute a lot to the Cincinnati community during this time, as with anything else though, she'll be remembered for her outspokenness and racially charged comments. She's still the only owner I know that brought her dog to the stadium and allowing him to run around the field and crap to his heart's content before a ballgame.
