I will always respect what he accompished here in his playingdays, and I'll always wonder what we could have done in '98 with him at the helm for 16 games.
When he left the NFL for the Monday Night gig he was not well-received. Al Michaels called him out in public, and they worked together, for Pete's sake. Since that point he's always seemed to me to be over-compensating for the perceived Bengal bias he has. Still, he was singing Andy and the Bengals' praises as loudly as anyone this season, for what it's worth.
he was also the first to welcome the bengals to the bottom of the division as soon as they drafted andy that year. he's a bengal fan alright (boomer) that is. the highs are high and low's are really low. it's called manic depression.
