C'mon Mike. Can't you do anything to pump up your fan base?

The thing that gets me about Mike Brown, is he could make so much more money if the Bengals were a powerhouse like the teams they supposedly model. Some postseason success or finally winning a Lombardi would lead to bandwagon fans, increased merchandise sales, increased season ticket sales, the whole works. If he would get out of his own damn way, hire someone who could actually be competent as a GM (meaning not a family member), and actually spend his cap instead of cutting corners, he could increase his cash flow.

At the end of the day, 1 of 2 things is going through his mind; 1) he's happy with the amount he is currently making and doesn't care or 2) he somehow has not figured out that building an actual winner would make him even more money. We all know money is his true #1 priority.
