Headline critique

[Beef03]

In local Sr. baseball team called the Brewers wins third straight league championship

My headline options:

Three-peat Fermented
or
Three-peat Brewed.

My preference is the first one, but am I trying to be too creative and will I lose people with first headline?

To be honest, neither one is great.

Second is a bit better, though.

I'd go with "Brewers tap third title" or something along those lines. (Which admittedly is pedestrian at best).

 

[Beef03]

Just trying for something quick and snappy. Tabloid style.

 

[DougDascenzo]

Snappy, huh?

How about, "Local senior baseball team called the Brewers wins third straight league championship"?

Seriously, here's two punchers I came up with: "Triple fermented" (which might have more to do with cigars ... but I think you can do it with beer, as well) and "Three cheers"

 

[Ace]

I like Three cheers.

 

[DougDascenzo]

I like Three cheers.

Thanks, Ace ... so, am I hired?

Sure. The SportsJournalists.com softball team can always use a light-hitting outfielder with no power.

No, um. Three Cs. Um, yeah. Get it? Three. Like three championships

Meh. Screw it.

How about this:
The Only Reason we are Running this is Because the Publisher got a Call from the Manager.


Seriously though, I think you could definitely go with Three Cheers, like someone else mentioned. It would get the point across.

Sure. The SportsJournalists.com softball team can always use a light-hitting outfielder with no power.

And a relief pitcher.

 

[Cansportschick]

What about third times the charm?

 

[times38]

Neither of those are very good. I would go with the second if you put a gun to my head.

I like Three Cheers as well.

How about:

'Our publisher is an absolute assclown for making us cover this rubbish'

Can you get that in a two-column head?

I basically already said that.
