"Even though some feel this team has underachieved lately from the front office straight on down, I firmly believe after this years draft (no matter who we take) and preseason, our wonderful fans will once again fall prey to my business structure. What structure you ask? I call it the "Short-Term-Memory Structure". This is simple formula that has worked for me and that is the fans will once again be excited no matter what the previous year brought. You might have been upset in January but come September you will be ready once again to pour your money, time and emotions into Uncle Mike and his Bengals. I love it and thank you all for your short term memories. Now Im going to have the most most expensive Rib Eye Steak money can buy....on the fans buck"
Almost accurate, but you missed with the rib eye remark. Mike would only spring for the hamburger/cottage cheese diet platter and take half of it home in a doggy bag.
He's going to die without ever winning a championship under his leadership. Hell, a playoff game. But, at least he built a nice fortune he can leave to his inbred front office. He could have made money doing anything else, like any talented, grifting attorney, so what the **** was the point of owning a football team?
