If you feel obligated to be a Bengals fan, because of hometown ties, than that is your problem. One does not need to move to another city to root and adopt a nearby team.
When I became a Bengals fan, Paul Brown, was the owner, front office and the HC. I clearly stated our issue was at the Front Office and Owner and I feel we will return to the 90's. Can you read and understand that??? Again, I chose to be a Bengals fan in 1974, not in the 90's. The fact that I stayed a Bengals fan, while I don't live in Cincy is commendable.   

Sorry, I made the assumption you were a Bengals fan because you at least grew up in Cincinnati or lived there at some point. My mistake.
But my point still stands, if people don't want to go through the 90's again, people can make the choice to pick a different team if they so choose.
I am curious why you chose to become a Bengals fan back in 1974 when not from around Cincinnati? And what's kept you a fan of a team you have no ties to other than you chose them a long time ago?
