1976: I started following the Bengals because I was a Reds fan (the Big Red Machine). I remember hoping that Archie Griffin was going to be good. As a left-coaster I didn't get to see many games because the local stations carried the Niners and Raiders. I did get to watch us play the Raiders late that season and remember Ray Guy killing us with all his punts over 40 yards with virtually no returns... and then we lost to them again that year in the playoffs.
