I can't think of a time that I have been more so since the pre Carson Palmer days. I still enjoy watching the sport, but have become numb to Mike Brown and Marvin Lewis. I'm not watching the majority of games and am extremely less active on here than I used to be.
I know the standard thought process is that I will get excited once the draft comes around, but something feels different about this year. I also know this is going to elicit many of the "you're not a real fan", "go root for Cleveland" responses that are typical on this board. I'm just curious how many others are feeling this way or something similar? Maybe my time as a Bengals fan is winding down...
I feel the same way. I don't look forward to Sundays any more and often don't even watch the game. I found myself able to watch second half of Pittsburgh game but knowing we would lose I was more interested in watching other games and listening to my buddy ***** about how poorly Pittsburgh played and assuring him they would win anyway. I was mildly curious about how we got the lead, and how exactly we would lose, but there was never a doubt in my mind we would lose. It is like this season was over before it started.
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
