I guess we'll hafta agree to disagree. I like Thom Brennaman, Chris Welsh, The Cowboy, and Marty. You need to remember that most of folks watching the Reds telecast are Reds fans, so they don't mind a pro-Reds announcing style. Thom's style is folksy, I like it. You guys are too young to remember guys like Dizzy Dean and Phil Rizzuto who kept talking about buying pizza after the game at a place that was a competitor for a sponsor of Yankees baseball and even Waite Hoyt for the Reds, who regailed audiences with stories of his days with the Yankees of the late 1920s.

The Reds had a good season, hopefully they'll go farther in 2011!
