Hey WW, what would you suggest to suckers like me who became fans in the early 90s, never saw a playoff win, but experienced year after year of disappointing drafts, personnel decisions and being a laughingstock thinking we'll turn it around "soon". We got suckered into being Bengal fans before we knew anything about MB, and now even though I always root for other underdog teams (like the Barry Sanders Lions, the Bledsoe Patriots, etc.), I have unfortunately come to consider the Bengals as my primary team. I get to live vicariously through the Patriots seeing how that once downtrodden franchise has reached unbelievable heights after an ownership change. I know most on this board don't like the Pats, but honestly they have been providing a lot of joy over the years to me by providing the obstacle that the teams in our division we all don't like can never get past. 

In some ways, I am not even sure I want a least deserving guy like MB to win a super bowl managing things "his" way. Surely if he owned a different team I would have to root against that team solely for that reason, but, unfortunately he owns the team that I root for. End rant.
