Wish it could be sooner but that's not too bad. 

It typically won't snow or even be too cold until at least November in Cincinnati, so that's not too bad.

I didn't realize it would take that long but it makes me even more glad that we're building a temporary one.

We're investing in this club because we have a winning team!

that's about 6 months from the time they broke ground and 7 from the time they received approvals...that's actually incredibly fast

I listened to her and Elizabeth’s podcast. The young Blackburn’s are really helping push this franchise out of its staleness. And they are sharp and I think qualified in their jobs. Seriously doubt the stadium naming rights happens otherwise. Grandfathers listen to grand kids much more than their kids.

Strange to see something done quickly and efficiently with this organization but I LOVE IT!

That's incredible!



Like I said, something that's not even thought about as a big deal to other franchises has me excited about the evolution of this franchise and the future of the team!

We will win multiple ships under Joe Burrow!

Opening date is set at the beginning of November.

Naming rights were sold to Integrity Express Logistics whoever the heck they are

Is it weird that, given this organization's history, I'm excited about them even selling the naming rights of the practice bubble?!

Wish it could be sooner because I was just outside and it's already getting kind of chilly.

Granted that I was in the shade and I'm always colder since I'm not up walking and blood's not circulating, but I'd just like the team to be comfortable during practice. 

WHO-DEY!

I've been out of Ohio for 14 years so I checked before I posted that... but yes, it is!

This is great news, #Bengals fans!⬇️https://t.co/SCntnqLs3m

I wonder if that lady still sings the little song at commercial breaks and everything "WARM 98.5!"

She always sang the 5 in a higher tone and louder!

I thought they had bought Hilltop already to put in the temporary bubble but it sounds like parts the permanent bubble will be where the temporary bubble is now.

I don't know. It's all confusing. If they were going to build it right there anyways then what was even the point of building a temporary bubble? So it could be used for the last few games and playoffs? Why not just build the permanent one if that's where it was going anyways?

The video I just watched from earlier today said that they bought Hilltop so they could have more room for tailgating and the practice bubble was barely mentioned.
