You're a complete traitor.
If you don't want to bet on the Bengals just because you want to play it smart and be conservative, ok, but betting against the Bengals and for other teams in the division, especially the Steelers, is grounds for termination of your man card, as well as your Bengal fanhood.
It's called hedging and it's quite smart actually. The Bengals aren't going to win or lose because I made a bet for or against them. I'm just hedging against total disappointment if they lose. Same goes with me picking a division rival to win the division or Super Bowl. My bet doesn't help or hurt them and if they end up winning the division or Super Bowl, I want it to be somewhat financially rewarding to me. Not for a few hundred bucks either, but a few thousand. I'll never root for those guys in the Super Bowl regardles of how much I could gain financially, but again, that has no bearing on the outcome.
As for Bengal fanhood, I will gladly compare my loyalty to anyone else's loyalty to the Bengals on this or any other board.
