Well, at least Diontae Johnson is out. I expect Awuzie to be on Claypool all day. Hopefully Juju won’t torch Apple too bad.

I played football for free and it killed me to miss games with injury.  The ides that these hyper competitive guys who make it to the NFL are happy to miss games is ridiculous.  NFL players are not like the average Joe who is so lazy that he will do anything to get out of work and still get paid.

But these type of comments are common from the fans who wants to make everything personal so that they can whine more about their victimhood.  I see it all the time around here.  Coaches can't just be bad at football decisions.  Instead they have to be arrogant assholes.  Players can't just be injured.  Instead they have to be shiftless loafers.  Owners and front offices can't just make bad decisions.  Instead they have to be evil and greedy.  It all has to be personal to justify the self-righteous indignation of the poor victim fan.

P.S.  Fred stop whining about fans being victims and whining.  You whine about that almost as much as most complain about the team. It has been your go to for some time, "You are just victims and whiners. I know much better." The Bengals have certainly deserved all the scrutiny the fans have to offer over the last 6 years or so.  In my opinion it is okay for fans to be unhappy with the way things have gone over the last several years.  That does not equal whining.

I just don't know why so many fans have to make it personal.  I am as upset as anyone that Waynes has missed all these games.  It is very frustrating.  But I don't see any reason to attack him on a personal level and post this BS about how is is happy to be missing these games.
