Yey.. They retained the services of the Spinster himself (or is it the sphincter) Geoff Hobspin..
Other than that it's pretty bland and something to..uhhhhhhh.. you know..cheer about n stuff I guess..
Oh gee....I almost forgot. It was national selfie day which by itself is more important than the latest embossing pattern of Dollar General toilet paper I think although its probably debatable.. Dammit! I forgot to make it a poll so let's just go ahead and make it an informal poll..

Yeah, I don’t go much either unless I click on a story link on this site that takes me there.

HOLY SHIT, Mike Brown actually paid money to make something better than just average?! AM I DREAMING?!
Granted that the website probably only costs a few grand, if that, to upgrade, but that's a lot of money for a guy that still has his First Communion money!
I like it because it makes me feel like our franchise is shined in a little better of a light.

We already had one of the best NFL sites out there...

Since we opened up here, I've only been there to print out a schedule. And if someone knows of another place I can do that, I'll NEVER go back there.

Me too, I only went there back in the day because the message board was over there.

I think they did a good job with the site. I go there and listen to the interviews and press conferences. Some oc the quotes in tweets and articles are taken out of context so it's nice to hear the full interviews sometimes.
Edit: I used to like it when they did a lot more of the OTA Minicamps and training camp vids. They are pretty generic now.

Yes, I'm quoting myself.
I see they just put up the schedule on the main page. That means I don't have to go anywhere else to get it.
EDIT: Now it's gone. Quit toying with me!
EDIT EDIT: Now it's back. Keep it up there guys, great idea.

Anything relevant they post will be shared here soon afterwards anyway.

I honestly don't think I've been there since they pulled our plug unless something linked there.
Nice site. Back here seems more like home, though.

I never go back either. They didn't like me using their site before, so why bother using it now?
A couple of you have mentioned only going back to print off the team's schedule. Any chance we could have a schedule of our own over here?

ESPN.com has it, NFL.com does too, yahoo sports... There are plenty of options out there.

What the heck, no one could post a link to it? FINE, I'll just go to google and type Bengals.....
Ok now that I am looking at it, can someone tell me what it used to look like? Honestly cant remember.

I agree. I think it's one of the better sites, and I go there for a variety of reasons pretty regularly. I mean I can never get enough of my team.
And despite the fact that Butch is on the Bengals payroll and can come off as smarmy sometimes, I think he does a good job. I like a lot of his articles. Can't imagine having to put out that kind of volume of work.
My only complaint was their getting rid of the message boards. But despite losing some of my favorite contributors we've totally landed on our feet thanks to Bengalholic and friends.
