I must be weak or something these days because every year about this time I tell myself (and anyone who will listen) 'I'm done with this team dammit!' and yet here I am reading posts (and posting) hoping to find some silver lining that will redeem it all . This team is like the pretty girlfriend you KNOW is cheating on you and doing it over and over, but you still love her despite her doing all your friends and possibly your own father and maybe even your mom..
Ok, maybe not that far, but geeez, Saturday night I was to the point where I just knew I would never watch another game or read one more bit of news about the team and yet..dammit! I just can't pull the trigger. I am hopelessly still a Bengals fan.
If this team were a woman I could walk away and not give it another thought, but there's just something that keeps me coming back for more.
Maybe they won't win another game for 3 years, but short of that I'll keep coming back to have my heart ripped out time after time. I think it's a curse we all have to endure.
