Get a few drinks in you, lube it up, and put it on. That's what a real fan would do, I think?!?

I'm just a little confused. And I beg your indulgence but I have a huge interest in Montana after watching the show. I also loved Lonesome Dove so I guess until I'm able to go to your state I'll just have to keep reading all I can about it.  

Yes, I am a licensed guide for Yellowstone National Park. I lead occasional nature tours there, with a focus on showing tourists grizzlies and wolves. the wolf part has gotten tougher, with 20 some wolves from the park being "harvested" so far this season. I live about 80 minutes from the north entrance to the park. We don't have a ranch, but a ranchette with 40 acres, 5 miles east of the town of Bozeman. As I've mentioned several times, Trae Waynes bought the adjoining piece last year. We co-own land with Waynes and two other neighbors. I haven't met him yet.

That's really interesting. My wife and I are planning a trip to Bozeman maybe in late spring. It's and easy flight from Cincy to Denver to Bozeman and pretty cheap. How is the weather in April? We don't mind cold but a lot of snow would be tough.

I'm not sure how true that statement really was.

As much as he's revered for what he did for the game of football, his reputation at the time was exactly that, a penny-pincher who wouldn't spend like other teams. I can still see the vision in my head of me milling about in my grandma's basement as my uncles talked that way about PB while the Dallas/Denver Super Bowl was playing on the TV.

My grandpa always said the Bengals goal was to go 8-8, have a high scoring offense to keep fans in the stands.

I can tell Mike Brown really wants to win, I hope we can win a SB before he passes away.

I can tell you that statement is absolutely true. There was a lot of criticism over that. I think he finally relented after the cheerleaders were going to pay their own way (if I remember right, but I absolutely remember the controversy.)

Damn, pretty embarrassing if you ask me. 

Oh well, I still love Paul Brown lol. But damn, he sounds cheap lol.

Paul Brown was cheap, but he was a football mastermind, so it didn’t really matter

Mike Brown is cheap, and is the opposite of a football mastermind

That’s the difference

And, the Ben-Gals were a pretty new thing at the time as well.

Stains and Stoolpitt fans are just assholes for the most part aren't they Dr.Z?

Yeah but I think Mike Brown is trying to put a winning product on the field before he passes away.

Katie is doing a good job of running the football operations now, maybe that's why we are doing better now?  Hilarious

Joe Burrow is the reason why the bengals are putting a decent product on the field. I’ll also credit Tobin for making this defense serviceable

I just sent you an email. Depends on weather as to whether many roads are open in April, but typically they're closed until late April.
