My definition of a 'homer' is a fan that realizes that he/she has no input to the team whatsoever, and does not spend time carrying on ranting and raving as if her/she were a coach and did have some say so in what happens, realizes they can only root for whatever hand the coaches deal him/her, hope for the best staying with a positive attitude, and hoping that things get better as the season(s) roll on, if the hate gets so heavy and he/she gets tired of hearing about, they refuse to debate it, stick with their team through thick and thin, go on with other much more important things in their lives and keep football and the Bengals in proper perspective.

Congratulations, you just made the All Homer, All the Time, I Realize Whatever I Think About The Bengals Will Not Make Any Difference Whatsoever, So Why Be One Of Those People Who Isn't Happy Unless Their Bitching About The Team, and Would Rather Be Right and Think They Know Everything, Ignore List!
Your idea of what constitutes a fan sounds incredibly boring, not to mention judgmental of other fans. If we never discussed scenarios and what-if's, these boards would've died a long time ago. If there weren't more than one perspective, there would be no debates, and that's what allows these boards to thrive.
There's more than one way of being a fan, and you'd probably be better off if you realized and accepted that fact.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
