Yup.  Classic cry for attention.

I always say it but I just cant do it... 1 thing I will say and I didnt want Palmer to leave when everyone else said he deserved better, but Joe Burrows dejected look on that cart made me feel bad for him.. He deserves better..

Can you blame him? Maybe he just wanted to hear some positive things. It is depressing when you enjoy something so much but its Toxic... Like an abusive partner but you love them so you take the abuse..

It's not a personal issue with this board. This board deserves better, but I'm done with the Cincinnati Bengals after all these years...and my phone crapped out this morning to make it even better.. 
Thinking about getting my mind away from this mess I have a big job this week to fix up a big house in a high dollar neighborhood full of rotting windows.. maybe I'll buy the team with the proceeds.. Yeah...right..lol

You'll be fine, your at that frustrated part most Bengal fans get every single year.

Here's what ya do, dont under any circumstance watch anymore games this year, you'll just lose your shit even more. Go out spend time with the family or something on a Sunday you enjoy...

I GUARANTEE next year after the draft regardless of what happens you will be excited again and dare even say you will think the team is good enough to make the playoffs...

Funny what time away does...


Look at how many people on yearly predictions this pick the team to win double digits and make playoffs...happens every year and will again next year too..

And yes I'll have plenty of stuff better to do than watch ZT and his QB get outcoached and outplayed.

Most of this season I thought Philly would win that division... Wentz is playing soooo bad though. Dallas has to be the favorite now... Right? Those 3 receivers, Zeke, and Dalton sorta steadying the ship? But yeah... They aren't going anywhere though.

I care if the team wins or loses, but if it effects you to such a degree that their losing has a negative impact on your quality of live; I recommend you step away.

Yep.
If you're not enjoying it, just quit watching until you're entertained again.
If you're a fan of football in general but frustrated with the Bengals, try getting more into college football and/or just watching the primetime NFL games.

In my book, once you renounce your fanhood you don't get to come back. Ever. Even if things turn around.

It'd be one thing if he just said he wasn't going to watch the games, but that hardly warrants a post. To say one will no longer care about the team is to renounce one's status as a fan. Just be aware that's a one way street. Or at least it should be.

Love the fandom police crawling out of the woodwork. Cracks me up that anyone would care about anyone else’s fan level in a team. Bigger fish to fricking fry

When anything frustrates or pisses you off and is completely out of your control it's the only thing you really can do.

Good for you Gramps.

Spend your time that is constructive and enjoyable instead of wasting it on this organization's mistakes/follies/bad luck/whatever.

Personally I'll keep interest but my emotional attachment has been fading slowly these past couple of years.

Tobin and "the family" should be run out of the NFL in a perfect world.

To be honest wins and loses have lost a lot of their meaning this year. I've always said I'd never root for the Bengals to lose, but the rest of this season I won't be pulling as hard for the victory......unless of course it's against The Steelers or Ravens, then I be in sacrifice first born for victory mode.

Yep. I didn't think the Bengals had a shot at Sewell until Burrow went down and they lost to WAS.
And at this point, if you can, yet again, likely snag the best OL in the draft like they did with Jonah, you have to hope it happens.

Carson couldn't.  I believe Burrow can.  And FWIW, I think Dalton had a damn good shot in 2015.

Aww, C'mon Truck...

We are supposed to be there for each other, not kick anyone while they are down.  I hate the "I'm done" rants, too, but I am probably guilty of it more than once myself.


I know it is annoying, but you are one of they guys on here that finds real ways to try and solve the problems.  Let Fred be the guy that punches someone choking on food.

Probably.

Yet caring is sharing.
