They're still my team, and I won't pick up another one unless they fold.....cause I'm no bandwagon frontrunner.....but I haven't watched as much, and even fell asleep during part of the 4th quarter Sunday.
I'll still be active here, as I don't really have anyone around me to discuss Bengals football in such detail, but I'll watch them if there's nothing else to do, or catch them on the radio....and if I miss the game, I miss it. No big deal. Some of it's the team, but there's also kids now that are getting more and more active....I don't even watch as many FSU games as I used to. I NEVER missed a Noles game or a Bengals game. I've missed several Bengals games, and a couple of day Seminoles games this year. I guess it's a combination of things for me.
One thing I won't do, is buy anymore tickets or merch until some changes are made.
Up until this year, going to watch the Bengals games was a family activity. One that we enjoyed. We did go watch football this past Sunday, but I found myself watching some of the other games as much as the Bengals. It was nice seeing them beat up on Pittsburgh in the first half, but kind of knew it would not last.
I remember a shot of Tomlin before the half where he looked really mad, pissed off. My daughter commented on it, and I thought "right there is a difference between Marvin and many other coaches".
