    Another question: Who pays Marty? Is it the Reds or the Radio?
    I believe the Reds own the broadcasting rights so I guess it would be the Reds.

    Reds pay him. My guess is $160k to $200k.

    Could be but he has been with them for over 35 years. Add in his commercials, etc and Marty pulls down some serious change.

    That's believable, but that gives me sticker shock.

    Employed by the Reds, it's conceivable that he makes close to 7 figures...

    Marty says on the radio if fans can raise $20K for the Reds Community Fund he will get his head shaved on the field after Friday's game

    Great opportunity for a local business to step up.

    The Reds have several radio and TV announcers that make over 100K.

    No question that Marty looks better bald than with that crazy hair he had.

    Big ups to him for helping raise $50k

    I thought Marty looked better without the hair, no doubt.

    Saw today that Charlie Sheen is going to match the 50k to the community fund... and he said he might run for Mayor of Cincinnati.

    Can you imagine Cincy would be the only city with Jerry Springer and Charlie Sheen as mayors, lol.

    At least Charlie would be better at delivering an Opening Day first pitch than the current mayor.

    I thought it looked even better when it was an inch or so long.
