1. Letting fans vote for 50 top players on the team site. Costs the Bengals nothing and is about as fun as watching paint dry and grass grow at the same time.
2. Finally paying some attention to former greats, which is a baby step in the right direction. Hopefully these players don't have to pay for their own flights.
3. Some amateur looking oversized uniform patch.
4. Picking a small handful of season ticket holders to be on the field for ceremonies. The only fans they pretend to care about...simply because they offer the most money.
5. Mike Brown suggesting that "someday" someone "may" feel differently than him about a player HOF. I guess he's about as "keen" on that as he is a practice facility.

...and that's pretty much it. This is sooo Mike Brown. No thought, money or effort put in, but that won't stop someone from defending crap. I'm surprised no one has jumped in the thread yet to tell us all how grateful we should be.

Then he refuses to sell the stadium naming rights to name it Paul Brown Stadium.

Things that make you say hmmmmmm

All fans in attendance will receive an open Matchbox knockoff of a 1997 Chevy Lumina if Andy Dalton throws his 50th TD of the season at home.

2. Yeah, I can't believe they are doing exactly what fans have been clamoring for. Disgusting.

3. The type of thing every team does.

4. Getting fans involved again? Why????

5. You should be grateful.

1. Praise that man Mike Brown for having Geoff post a poll that we can all click on. Bengals fever! Catch it!

2. I didn't say anything bad about that, but ok.

3. Only ours looks like it was slapped together in 5 minutes.

4. You're right. Lets throw a parade for Mike Brown to show our appreciation. Except the parade will only include a small portion of season ticket holders.

5. Oh I really am grateful. To you. For showing me how great Mike truly is.

Apparently that child must be doing the patches for all the teams in the NFL since they all basically look the same. Seriously, at this point nothing they did would have made people happy. If the guy doesn't want to do a ring of honor who freaking cares. He is right, I as a fan don't give a crap about those "old guys". The teams weren't really all that good and I think reliving "glory days" that weren't all that great is kind of pointless. Often times teams do those days as publicity stunts to draw crowds, which according to many here would be a Mike Brown thing to do.

The dolphins basically did the same things to celebrate their 50 years, I am curious what they aren't doing that you want them to do?

Not to mention they already have a team HOF. Finally relenting and doing something similar would've been a nice step.

Wearing retro uniforms (for the first time since 1994) would've been nice as well.
