How 'ya feeling about yourself, your boss, your job, your company? Let's say you have a spouse who constantly nags you about your failings....ALL THE TIME! How long is it going to take before you put shoe leather up their posterior?
As has been mentioned, we've discussed Marvin, Mike Brown, Carson, Cory, Dalton, on and on and on in hundreds, if not thousands of posts. You want to keep wallowing in that?
This is the best Bengals team in their history. And, some want to discuss the ones that were worse....in the past.....where there's absolutely nothing you can change about them.
So yeah...go ahead and wallow in that. I try to stay away from all the people I know who insist on living in the past and chronically complain about it.
You bandy the term "wallow" about rather freely. It's not applicable in every case. Believe it or not, some people may be genuinely curious why things turned out as they did in the past, especially if they weren't around or paying attention at the time- as with the OP. If this is indeed the best team in franchise history, I suppose all talk of the past is going to be labelled "misery wallowing" henceforth. So be it.
I see many threads over the course of time that do nothing for me. I choose not to contribute to them.
