His family opened up to me about what it means to play for the Bengals, and to wear the stripes. I've done a few "homecoming" stories in my career, but this one is definitely different. I mean, this dude LOVES the Bengals, always has. He always wanted to play here. It's pretty cool, I think.
Here's the link and as always, thanks for reading and sharing y'all!

I dont know who in the hell you think you are Jim. Aside from being an absolutely asinine remark, those are fighting words around these parts. You could walk a live gd bengal tiger out on the field and all the ref would ask is if its reporting as eligible. Best uni's in all of professional sports.
great article tho.

Heh. I'm going off this thing that got a lot of attention that said they were about the "ugliest" in the league - Hawk heard the same thing, which is why we brought it up.
Thanks for reading!

I'll let it slide given your the best beat writer I can remember around these parts. But that is your last warning.
Figured that was what you're referencing. I can't stand that dude. More obsessed with aesthetics than the game itself. Go a fashion show and stfu Pauline.

Guess he's going for that TURD look...

AJ Hawk was a great signing. He came cheap, and will always be in the right place on the field (unlike every LB not named Vontaze).
Now... Onto this uniform thing. The Browns have the worst uniforms ever imagined. I wouldn't be shocked if they revert back to the old ones after this season. They literally hurt my eyes, and I've not even seen them in the orange get ups yet. Our orange jerseys suck too. Seattle, Green Bay, Tampa Bay, Jacksonville, Denver, and Cleveland all have uniforms that look like an 8 yr old boy designed them. I have to agree with Vas... The Bengals have the best uniform in sports. The helmet alone gets them that.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.

I think our white/white is the worst... My favorite jersey combo we have is orange top / black pants with orange socks. I can't remember the last time they had that combo tho.

Our orange is awesome.
Tampa Bay's orange is classic.
Cleveland's orange is shit.
AJ Hawk is awesome.
I've had a bit too much to drink I think.
