Let's not forget that he also coached for the Ravens, who won a Super Bowl, and had to beat Pittsburgh in order to get there...
And, what does any of this pseudo-conspiracy shit have to do with the Aaron Rodgers ordeal?
Well, I never said he didn't conduct himself in a professional manner (although some of his interactions and the overall tone he takes with the media leave something to be desired), I'm moreso implying that it affected his coaching to some extent. Not outwardly, more subconsciously.
Think about it: if any of us diehard bengals fans for some horrifying reason became head coach of the our rivals, the Pittsburgh steelers (just for the sake of argument), I guarantee you none of us could honestly go 100% all out to beat the bengals. There is an obvious conflict of interest there. Marvin grew up a diehard fan of the steelers, and I don't think it's crazy to think it affected him head coaching a Cincinnati team against Pittsburgh.
I firmly believe it subconsciously affects Marv to some extent. Even if it's a minuscule amount it's too much.
As for how this got off topic, I apologize for my part. Sometimes we tend to go off on tangents around here.
