Good on ya, mate! :andy:

Is that an imperative?

Watching the Bengals lose today makes me want to strangle a crocodile.... the same way that Arnold Schwarzenegger does!



Hey! I just noticed we don't have any Kraut fans. What's up with that? I mean, we have Frogs, Limeys, Scots, Canucks, Aussies and even an Edelweisser. How's come no Krauts?

Don't they like tigers?

When I was stationed in Germany I spent a week in Southern France and a few days in Paris.  I really enjoyed my time there, especially Southern France.  It's a beautiful area.

It's not you, Nordic Brother. It is this team. They are lost in the depths of mediocrity this season.

Cheers to you, mate!

Go Bengals!

I was born in Norway, but my parents moved to America when I was just 6 to further their educations in their chosen fields. My own field of study led me to Germany and France to participate in different studies and projects. I am currently working in England.

While living in the States, I was able to attend a handful of Bengals games with my father -- who became a Bengals fan while working at Thee Ohio State University for a couple of years. Although he is no longer with us, I continue to be a most avid fan. 

Who Dey my friend!

Welcome, brother!

I'm afraid my knowledge of Norwegian is limited solely to the phrase, "Uff da". Despite the limit of my vocabulary, though, my frequency of using the one phrase makes up for it!

My 19yr old daughter's boyfriend is from Mattoon IL and she is coming over next month for 3 months to arrange her wedding, So hopefully I will make it down to catch a game about this time next year

Any time. I should say that Lexington is about 80 miles south of Cincy but if you want to make the hour and a half drive down here I'd be happy to show you God's Country. Just message me.

JWW1971, who's your team in the Scottish fitba? My uncles made sure I was indoctrinated as a Hearts fan even though I was living on the other side of the world!

Where in Australia do you live?

Yeah games starting at 3am early on the season suck.

Go Bengals!

Based in England , just 30 miles north west of London.

Fan since the '88 season.  

Used to listen to games on US forces radio, and watch weekly highlights on TV.  Having gamepass to watch games now is such a luxury!

Lost touch with NFL for about a decade but then was in Shanghai 13 years ago unable to sleep so turned on hotel TV and managed to watch the 2005 win at steelers with Palmer...from that point since been hooked again for better or worse  :andy:

Hello!

Long time reader first time poster from London.

Been a Bengals fan from 2013 when we were on Hard Knocks. I’ve seen them live once at Wembley, which was a fantastic experience.

Also saw Dunlop and Peko in the flesh at a fan meet and greet that year.

It’s amazing how my Sunday night can be ruined by a team 1,000’s of miles away!

Who Dey.

How thick is your accent, lad? Do Americans give you funny looks at the airport? (For some strange reason, Brits seem to understand a thick Scotch or Irish accent perfectly fine. Americans however....).

BTW - My ancestors where Scots (MacKenzie) and an odd little French Huguenot named Gaston who somehow made his way up to Scotland.


Sunday's game was a right scunner!

What do you guys call a french salad ?

A french salad or chopped salad.  The wife makes one on occasion.  In reference to my post, it was just a regular green salad I was having, but with what we call french dressing.
