My wife loves it when I'm watching the Bengals. I have all this pent-up nervous energy/rage that I actually clean the freaking house. I'm still a big-time douche so everyone stays away from me.
I can honestly tell you that if the Bengals go to another Super Bowl, I will be watching the game in my walk-in closet by myself without my phone.

Yep. Have the tv on, the stereo turned to the Bengals broadcast, and the laptop tuned my fantasy team and the gameday thread. Every once in a while I'll swear loudly and the wife will yell from the other room something to the effect: "Is a real or imaginary team pissing you off?"

Like a lot of fellow Bengals fans on here, I used to explode, blow up, let it affect me for hours after the game, etc. Now i'm actually pretty calm during the game. Even my wife has mentioned how I don't get all worked up anymore. One fun thing to do is watch a Bengals game with a non-fan and when Cincy has a big lead, for them to say "well this game is over, Bengals gonna win it....." I usually just laugh and give them the "Hold my Beer" look!
