Quote:We haven’t won a playoff game since college was affordable.

Quote:I met my future wife at a Bengals game. Meeting a cute girl at Paul Brown Stadium might be the biggest upset in sports history because Paul Brown Stadium is the beach in “Old.”

Quote:Every year I meet at least one person not from Cincinnati and with no lineage to Porkopolis (yes the city was once infested with pigs) that chose to be a Bengals fan. I feel two things simultaneously when learning this: “Cool, someone chose us”, and also “I do not trust this person’s judgement or general personality.” I avoid them like the plague the rest of the game while Dre Kirkpatrick gets abused by Ryan Fitzpatrick.

So, to prove I'm not one of 'those people' and am capable of changing my mind with the advent of new information, I have edited my post to exclude that quote.

Well done Llama.

Of course the comments are always some of the most amazing things.

Such as: "I could hurl blame at Joe Montana or Joey Porter or Kimo von Oelhoffen or the Silverdome’s turf or the curse of Bo Jackson’s hip for the woes of my beloved Bengals during my lifetime, but ultimately this is my fault. I’m from Columbus. I could have chosen the Browns, or the Bears of my adopted hometown of Chicago. But, at the end of the day, I guess I’d rather pull for the team who skimps on scouting and employs a sentient Yeti cooler as a head coach. Zac Taylor has ten sportcoats in his closet and zero ties."

You are basically saying it is fine to be a complete ass hole but start clutching you pearls when one of the assholes mentions death.

Personally I am fine with people joking. I don't see how you can take some of the comments serious and not others. Maybe too many people are just fine with people acting like ass holes.
