I have pictures of me as a baby wearing Steelers gear. My family is huge Steelers fans. I remember those Dodgers.
I used to be like the other Homers on this board through the 90's and maybe early 2000's. I'd be on message boards talking about how the Bengals drafts were bad luck. Injuries, etc. How they had talent and were underperforming. How they'd turn it around. I was an endless optimist.
Now I just see them as woefully mismanaged. It lowered my stress. Over the years people turned on Pickens, Dillon, Spikes, Palmer. Now they're turning on Marvin Lewis. While I don't think he is a great coach...ultimately ownership allowed him to go 0-7 in the playoffs and stay. Not spending in free agency. Letting guys walk and stating we do it for comp picks. Teams that want to win a championship just aren't managed this way.
You poor soul.
It lowered my stress a ton too.....until I try to explain to people that Mike Brown is still the issue when they're blabbing on about Dalton (or Palmer before). That's the only time my stress goes up a smidge.
