Honestly, I wonder what will happen first:
1 - The city will see a pro team advance a round in the playoffs
2 - The City will lose one of it's Pro teams
That being said, its been what? 26 straight seasons for the Bengals, something like 8 winning seasons in 26 tries, zero playoff wins.
Reds, this will make consecutive season #22 of zero advancement in the playoffs. 5 winning seasons in the last 22 years.
Lay the Reds and Bengals over one another - 48 straight tried, 48 straight zeros. Not one modicum of playoff or postseason success. That stat alone is staggering and somber.
13 winning seasons in 48 combined seasons as well, Basically each year we have a 28% chance of either the Reds or Bengals winning more than they lose. We have a 14% chance that both teams will have a winning year (We saw that in 2012, 2013)
It really is sad. Given the way the league induces parity, you have to start to wonder - How poorly run are these orgs? Based on sheer luck, they'd have to fall into some postseason magic every now and then. Not in Cincy. It's a joke
