Btw, it isn't just us, not as intelligent fans as Fred, that talk about the Bengals not winning a playoff game. Every sports journalist or sportscaster seems to include, "haven't won a playoff game in 26 years" blurb when talking about the Bengals... They must be misinformed like everyone but you, Mike & Marvin.

I'm also a fan of the Detroit Red Wings (don't hate me I was a fan of them back before CBJ existed!) and follow them on Twitter.
The majority of Wings fans are ruthless toward the team. Every single time the Wings lose or even give up a goal is just a bashing by a ton of fans.
Even back when they were still on their playoff appearance streak of 25 consecutive seasons, their team was constantly getting bashed because the expectation had been raised to "Championship or Bust" thanks to their four Stanley Cups from 1997-2008. The majority of their fan base did not consider just making the playoffs perennially to be satisfactory.

Steelers' fan base is the same way from what I've observed in the past.

Even the championship teams' fan bases constantly complain if they don't consistently live up to the fans' expectations.
