Big shout out to Katie Blackburn.
The woman is an exceptional executive.
The way she structures contracts is A1.
We should be celebrating the way she moves as the top in the league! Imo

I remember my first beer.

Thanks Troy. Please let her handle the Bates negotiations without you.

Now this won't happen while Mike is alive but who's to say Katie won't see big business elsewhere? Do you fully understand how many cities are ready to build Katies World. If the Bengals move out of Cincinnati cicadas will be back twice before a new team comes back. Give the family what they want to stay. They'll likey want a new stadium.

What is your motive behind this thread? I’m so confused.

Also…. Katie’s World sounds like a fun website…

Shouldn't we wait for something exceptional to actually occur before making such a proclamation?

Wait! Didn't they just get a new stadium?

The Bengals have had two stadiums built for them in my life time. You are saying they should get a third?

What's the life expectancy of a stadium anyways? Ohio Stadium opened 99 years ago and is going strong.

The team doesn't win enough games to sell out the stadium they have, so why build a new one they won't sell out either? Make them become a good team first and earn an upgraded stadium.

Is PBS even paid off?

 

Is there a link to this?

Would you rather have them in Cincinnati or some other city that will spend a billion to build " Katies World"  The Bearcats should take over PBS and the county should work with the "Family" on a new retractable roof stadium. That would bring a superbowl and other entertainment revenue to Cincinnati.

What city is that?

No its definitely not a waste of anyone's time but reality. This could very well end in the future if both the county and organization doesn't come to an agreement.

1.) Give me some example of some cities you could see this happening in.  I'm generally curious who you think is going to fund a a billion dollar stadium for the Bengals.

2.) UC has a stadium right on campus.  It's one of the oldest stadiums in the country and is beloved by many.  They also just put a ton of money into it (100 million) and expanded seeting.  Why would they want to "take over PBS"?
