Not this dog. If they win a SB, I'm taking the week off and getting hammered while rewatching the whole season 20 times. Holy Crap, I will need a liver transplant.

True Daddy-O.

That was the one game we went to see. I felt ripped off. Most boring game...ever.

One of the original posters said the game is fixed and I kind of agree. The Super Bowl with Atlanta-New England was outrageously scripted, including the Patriot's "miracle comeback." For now, the referees and the league favor the Steelers. That's just how it is and it's why two Bengal wins against them in a season are/would be miraculous.
The Steelers games seem well-spaced, with one at Pittsburgh on the last day that could be very interesting. Another interesting away game is 12/9 at the Chargers, to see if there are more cheers for the Bengals or Chargers, plus it's always interesting to see games at that tiny stadium the Chargers are playing in now (like if the Bengals played at Miami U stadium or something). Otherwise, to me it looks like a balanced schedule against the AFC west and NFC south with a Dolphins game thrown in there. I'll watch as always.

Anyone who doubts the leagues bias against the Bengals need look no further than Canton. Of all the great Bengals players throughout the franchise history, you're telling me only Anthony Munoz is worthy of the Hall? He only got there because he was the best OT of all time and they kind of HAD to induct him, but the list of those who should be in, but aren't, because they played here is long and distinguished....

Kind of hard to argue with any of this even though it hurts me...
Too bad for them we are going to mess with their fix and destroy all their plans. :andy:

Very true Sled! I don't buy the whole, "you need to win a SB" crap. I'd pretty much put a lot of our DBs from 70's and a certain QB and WR combo needs to be in the hall...

We need to get you into training so you can cross the finish line when the time comes.

I work a lot of weekends at my work and every year worry that IF this is the year the Bengals FINALLY do it, how am I going to take off a bunch of weekend days in a row?
I guess I would have to explain to my family that I'm sorry but I was rooting for the Bengals before I ever even knew you people, and I'm sorry but I have priorities, and if I we have to live in the street because Dad got fired for skipping work I better not hear any whining.
