I guess the question is why? Why exactly do you (or I) react the way we do? Why can't we just enjoy what we have and save the "anger and venom" for if and when we are bounced from super bowl contention?
Just so everyone knows, I am not personally pointing my finger at you or anyone else. I just thought I would share what I thought was an interesting take on our fanbase.

KC 3 years... i just think he writing is a bunch of fluff.. we can see these fans in every city... in the end the majority of fans Bengals and other teams do not hate on a winning team.. lets just be honest and logical about it.
I've lived multiple years in all 3 markets too. Never saw anything like the relevant claim in KC during the time of Schottenheimer, Montana, Thomas and Smith and only minimal amounts in Pittsburgh last 2 SB's til just before Noll's depature. Granted, other than this board I didn't see much of it in Cincy either.
Here in GA though, homers all the way. Limited experience in Indy but it seems the same.
Shall I go into other markets I'm familiar with?
