Stewart won't be back with Reds
What is it with my favorite teams and announcers lately? First the Cavaliers axe Michael Reghi, and now the Reds have opted not to bring back Steve Stewart, in his third season as the club's radio announcer.
In a period of cheerleading public relations guys (ehhhehehUnderwoodehehehe), Stewart struck me as a very solid, professional announcer, who walked into a difficult spot and did very well.
Replacing someone as beloved as Joe Nuxhall was not easy, and I'm really surprised the Reds have gone in another direction.
Two good announcers gone from Ohio in less than a month. Look out.

Brace yourself. Joe Tait turns 70 this year and Dan Gilbert is not one of his bigger fans, since Tait openly criticizes the Cavs when it is deserved.
It is entirely possible that this will be Tait's last season before retiring or being Reghi-ed out the door.
If that is the case, I really hope the Cavs make the NBA Finals next spring. Tait is a hall of fame announcer, and he deserves to call an NBA Finals before his career ends.
