Don't you folks speak Latin to make it official? It's Carpe Diem.. The other part is kind of unofficial

The same Susan Dey from the Partidge Family? She's got a few miles on her by now, but the version from the series wasn't too hateful.

I don't know, man, the Bengals and I were born at the same exact time. Always felt a connection to them. Guess what I finished in our conference championships two years in a row? Second. I did finally win it all at Nationals when I was 32, so there is hope for the Bengals yet.

Sorry to hear about your Father, went for almost 20 years with Dad before he passed 9 years ago.
Was a sad day and now go in his honor.
That's awesome. I went from 4 to 2 and back to 4, but my son has zero interest and I would essentially be going alone. I told my dad that we will watch every home game together and do carryout from the Paragon (amazing steaks) to consume during the games and still save money. And at the very least we are doing it together.

I like it and am excited for upcoming year. Apologize if that is offensive to anybody, or in poor taste.
Might not be as cool as you.
This should seriously be on T-shirts

I honestly believe I may have helped the team by not renewing. If they are going to win the Super Bowl, it would only make sense that it be the year I give up my tickets.
Sorry for your divorce and prayers for your Dad. MY nephew also gave up his tickets, (25 year ticket holder) and the rest of my group did also so yep this may be the year....LOL
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.

Suspect it will, sent a mini picture (8"x10") with slogan on it with tickets plus window sticker.

Amazing plan that am certain you will not regret. Better spent with Father then at stadium, and waaayyyyy cheaper to boot.

Yep. Plus, no DUI risk. Well, unless you run out of beer at halftime then yikes?

come on Harley, running out of beer at halftime while at home is a "rookie" move that would get you benched, lol.

Yeah, we were the last of a long time group and it just became too hard with his knee issue. Thanks for the kind words. It is really nice, at least, to not have to worry about blackouts any longer. The bluetooth feature on the sound bar also means I don't have to listen to the shit reporting and I can have Dan and Lap call the game.

Ok, well saw this video this morning. Kinda of a nice symmetry of both fans and players getting ready for game-day. The Kirkpatrick thing made me chuckle a little.

VERY true. Spent a lot of quality time with my Dad in the last two years before he succumbed to Parkinson's. I think they are by far the best memories I will have of him. We honestly got to truly know each other in his 90th and 91st years.
Well done SHRacerX. Hope one of my kids gives me the same TLC.
Hang in there brother!
