This is what irritates me about the Bengals

Well thanks for telling us all what we already know Murdock.

It was Joel Klatt that compared Burrow to Montana BTW. I just agreed with it with how cool in the pocket Burrow is and they 
both could run unlike Brady or Peyton. We need to do more than just Draft Burrow though and everyone knows it and we will
have lots of money to spend. It is stupid to say things like Hobspin just did. We have a lot of money, spend it on a Shobert 
and a Thuney and the fans will be ecstatic.

I hate being a downer, I've just lost my faith in all this.

For years I've been on board with draft this guy and sign this guy and the team will turn the corner, and honestly I think I'm just tired of investing energy into hope anymore. I was raised a fan of this team, went to their old training camps as a kid at Wilmington College and remember seeing an old Paul Brown just demand respect from his team. And now, now it's just a money making business and a national punch line. 

I want to believe Burrow will be good and the team will invest in Free Agency, but 30 years have shown me that Burrow will be average at best with his potential held back by a bad roster or bad coaches or get hurt or be a huge bust while Tua or Herbert or both win a Super Bowl. 

I guess, I'm just at the point where until they show me that things have changed, I have no reason to invest anything into this team. Hell, makes me wonder why I'm even typing this as I do it.
