To be fair, she could probably say the same thing about the Bengals. Chase brown ball, get fans hopes up, find stupid often pathetic way to disappoint fans, repeat next year with same GM and head coach.

On offense I'd give Boling a battle ax, and on defense I'd give Iloka a lasso so he could tackle any player anywhere on the field (once he learned to throw a lasso).

But if a guy on the opposing team had a sword or an ax I guess I'd have to give one of our guys the same thing to fight him with.

I’d give our offensive line a fire hose to push would be tacklers away from the ball carrier (and knock any axe or sword out of the defenses hands).

For defense I’d just unleash Burfict, no rules, kick ass.

Football season can't get here soon enough but we still have to go through Training Camp and the Preseason.


BORED, I TELL YOU!



Bored...

Maybe that is part of the formula to the NFL's success.  We are so keyed up after FA and the draft that by the time some useless exhibition games get here, we are dying for anything football.

It is my favorite time of the year, as football begins, and the season of fall approaches.  I don't want to rush the rest of summer, but I really can't wait for the season to start up.

It is going to be fun!  And I might host a "Bengals Board" watch party now that I am a bachelor for some game.  Harley, there would be beer!  I live in Centerville, and would welcome any and all travelers.  It would be easier than coordinating at a game where we would all have different seats.  I could even hook up the giant outdoor screen and project the game....if it were a night game.  


Regardless, I am with you on the boredom.

Most likely the friendliest ending of a marriage ever..

Oh I've done a lot of things wrong my friend...

I'm with you on looking forward to football, and the approaching Autumn.  (My favorite time of the year!)  And I would be in if you threw together a party on watching a game as long as spouses are allowed. (And mine is off, she's a nurse and works some Sundays.)

Might get more people if choosing a road game to have party. Have family that way and would consider attending if off work. 

This thread is for random thoughts as you sit bored on the couch watching chick flicks with you significant other and pretend not to cry.

So with that said, the inverse of infinity approaches zero...it is not zero.

You could always watch a former Bengal go for a Football Championship:

Quote:Two of the professional teams, the Roadrunners (led by Michael Vick and former Legion of Boom member Brandon Browner) and Team Ocho (led by Chad Ochocinco and former Oregon quarterback Dennis Dixon) faced off in the semis on Saturday, with Team Ocho squeezing out a victory.

How is "Ogbuehi" pronounced?

Is it Og-Boo-EE?
Is it Og-Boo-Hi?
Is it Og-Boo-I?

I mean, if you drink enough to make the fat chicks look hot, was it really wasted alcohol?

Hey Sunset; probably none of my business but did you get a divorce in North Carolina? Did you or your ex-wife have to move out for a year before it became official?

I can make a move on thread.

If there's any reason the beginning of football season kind of disappoints me it's because it means that cold weather is right around the corner. I really dislike cold weather as I have been very close to freezing to death more than once. Admittedly since I live in SC now cold weather isn't as much as a concern as when I still lived in Ohio. During my last visit the temperature dropped to well below zero and I wasn't prepared for it..That ain't happening again .

I wouldn't see why not, as long as everyone could behave....

This offseason has dragged by slower than usual, that's for sure.

First wife and I split while I still lived in Ohio.  But, since you're asking about NC?  As I understand, their laws are set up so as there must be a one year separation, before a divorce is granted. Not positive, but I think South Carolina is the same way.

Are you considering getting a divorce in NC?

I've been watching a lot of Reds baseball (which has been a lot better as of late), and trying to play golf twice a week - as both of those tend to go by the way side once football season starts.

You ought to start a thread in Fan Connection and see how many would be interested.
