But in over 50 years of rooting for the Bengals, I've never been able to be happy with a loss. The best that I can do is engage myself in something else productive while watching the game. But I was so invested in this game and it truly hurt to lose again.
And I could see Joe Burrow was very upset. when the PI was called, he showed the most emotion that I have seen from him. But at least he walks away with millions after the game. And probably a supermodel. I'm left with the pain and wishing I'd rather not invested the three hours just to get a gut punch at the end.
Oh it hurts, I just thought we were going to lose regardless, and we put up one hell of a fight in the Champs place.
I was feeling apathy in the Marv years where I couldn't care less. F-'em were my feelings. I could see us still making a run at the SB this year.
These are not the Marv years Nepa. But I sure am not as invested as I should be, I have a bit of a heart of stone now.
