    Redzone Rules of Brennamans

    For some reason, I can't recall what at the moment , I have been pondering what a Brennaman should be taught as rules for being a Brennaman. I thought we at Redszone could compile a list of things to do or not to do to be like a Brennaman. (This is not intended to bash any particular Brennaman but is aspirational/ instructional.)

    • Always groom the hair
    • Have a tan
    • Be able to broadcast multiple sports
    • Work for the Cincinnati Reds


    Feel free to add to this list.

    For some reason I feel I too am being mocked though I can't put my finger on why I feel that way.

    Not that there is anything wrong with that.

    Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.

    When in doubt, bust chops.

    The answer to the age-old question "How we lookin'?" is always "Not good."

    • Every silver lining has a cloud around it. Don't ever forget to mention the cloud.
    • In a perfect world, there would be shamings in a public square for leaving runners on base. We live in an imperfect world, so it's up to us to do the shaming.

    Bunting is the easiest thing to do in all of sports. Make sure to point out the moral gravity of each failed attempt.

    Re: Redzone Rules of Brennamans

    Is Brennamen the correct term for the Thom Marty combo or is it Thommart, Martythom, Marthom?
