The only people who will hate them are those who wanted traditional, blocks & stripes, or old school looks. That is NOT what these are. After seeing, feeling, and touching them, the jerseys on the hanger were NOT really representative of what the Bengals put together.
I didn't mind the NDA at all. This is the Bengals project to unveil and I think they deserve to have their own thunder for that. In these days of hype and scoop media getting all of the spotlight and everyone with a phone able to post media and get attention world wide, I think the Bengals being generous enough to let fans in for a sneak peak while not wanting them to broadcast it to the world is understandable.
100% true. It's their product, they can release it however they want. This notion of getting the scoop a few days (and when it comes to the draft, a few seconds) before everyone else is just embarrassing lol. I thought the 24-hour news cycle, social media and instant comms would wipe out that impulse on our part. If anything it's just made things worse.
