Around SBN: Trent Richardson Interviews Fellow Brown Brandon Weeden

SITE NEWS: Interested In Becoming A BRB Writer?

At various times throughout BRB's long and dignified brief and embarrassing history, we've added new writers to the masthead. Sometimes this has been a case of me simply bringing on people whose writing I've enjoyed reading elsewhere (e.g., this guy, or this guy, or this guy); sometimes it's been me asking for potential new contributors to submit "applications" (e.g., here and here). As there have been a couple of readers who have expressed interest in becoming contributors, coupled with a few of our current writers getting busy in their non-blogging lives, we're opening up the "application process" again. Details are after the jump.

Star-divide

If you're interested in writing for BRB, please draft a post on anything Texans-related and e-mail it to me (my address can be found by clicking on my name at the top of this post). The post can be centered on your opinion about how the 2011 NFL Draft went for the Texans. It can be an analysis of Rick Smith's track record in free agency. It can be a breakdown of how you think Wade Phillips will fill the 3-4 with the roster as currently constructed. It can be an ode to Matt Schaub's receding hairline. Really, it can be anything, as long as it's original and relates to your Houston Texans.

Before you start writing what I'm sure will be the most insightful thing I've ever read about some aspect of the Texans, a few requirements of the gig should be discussed:

1. I can't promise you any money for writing here. There may be some advertising campaign revenue associated with the gig in the future, and I'd be glad to talk about that in greater detail via e-mail if you like. But understand that for the immediate future, BRB is purely pro bono. Any remuneration would likely come via a free official BRB t-shirt me picking up your drinks at the next BRB gathering.

2. Keep the profanity to a minimum. I understand that there will be times when it's necessary, but I want to continue to do our best to keep this site off the workplace-ban list.

3. Although there's no hard and fast rule for the number of posts you'd have to author each week, I would like to see the newest member of our dysfunctional family commit to putting up at least two, and preferably three, pieces per week. If you submit an entry, please do so with the knowledge that you'd be on the proverbial hook for two-plus posts each week.

4. Punctuation, spelling, grammar, and all those sorts of things matter. While we have the capability of editing posts, it's no fun to have to rewrite or excessively correct things that are capable of being caught before a post is published. I humbly beseech you to proofread your entry.

I hope several of you are interested, and I eagerly await all submissions. Ideally, we'd like to have someone up and writing here in a couple of weeks, so let's say that all entries should be in by May 13th. I look forward to reading anything and everything anyone submits. Happy blogging.

Is that they are virtually guaranteed to elicit a snarky comment from the Amelia Earhart of BRB.

While it has no actual relation to baptist or cathlic yeah...

Its basically baptists with less rules. We can drink and dance. The method part was from john wesley back when methodism was created. basically he said there are many “methods” to worship and we should use them all… Soo long story short, methodism is,a looser baptist religion based on a clever play on words.

As far as I’m concerned.

Never use a metaphor, simile, or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.
Never use a long word where a short one will do.
If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.
Never use the passive where you can use the active.
Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word, or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.

the Texans have been given 35/1 odds of winning the Superbowl! just FYI.

I'm looking forward to bigger and better things from the Texans this year... I've decided to start fresh and refocus on the things that matter... thats right... I speak of SKIN BLEACH! no need to burn your throat.. it can't feel it anymore anyways! apply directly to the skin or eyes and let the mind blowing pain steal your focus from the disaster on the field!

Random fact of the week from the empty void that is my mind: For all the great things about dead week, finals week really sucks.

Cass made typos. Intentionally even.

Im just wondering.

I’ve never seen this many posts EVER during the off-season. Why the need for more writers? Is someone leaving us?! Riott? DreKeem?

Oh that’s right. They’ve been long gone.

I can't speak for those other guys, but...

Turns out he won't come

Unless we take the cork off the end of his fork and give him more orange slices.

Never use a metaphor, simile, or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.
Never use a long word where a short one will do.
If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.
Never use the passive where you can use the active.
Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word, or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.
Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.

He eats oranges with a fork?

Definitely bring that guy in! it’s like George eating a Snickers bar with a knife and fork.

What is amazing is

He tries to eat the orange slices with the cork still on the fork

I'd do this, but I don't know near enough about football.

Though I might be a decent enough writer, I am not a football writer.
