That is not true around here. The people with pessimistic outlooks are the ones that cry, excuse me, "vent" the loudest. They are the ones that take the Bengal failure as a personal affront. Instead of criticizing the Bengals football acumen they make personal attacks about appearance or character. They are not satisfied claiming that the Bengals are a below average team. Instead everything about the Bengals has to be the absolute worst in the league. They can't just be disappointed. Instead they have to be victims of embarrassment and derision from the rest of the league. When the Bengals win a regular season game it is meaningless because "only playoffs count", but when the Bengals lose a regular season game it is a source of endless outrage.
