So it is a connection with me and my departed Dad.
Plus a lot of people have very good seats that would lose if staying out one year even. Held hostage sort of.
Have watched the likes of Tom Brady, Joe Montana, Steve Young, Brett Favre, Jerry Rice, Walter Payton, Barry Sanders and the list could go on for a long time during my years being season ticket holder. So do have some fond memories.
But may give up two this year per getting much more expensive and just getting older.
May even give up all 4, but like OP stated something will make me interested again in offseason.
Being a Bengals fan is not for the weak and if what does not kill us makes us stronger. Then we must be the strongest fan base on the planet.
I haven't been a STH as long as you, but I too have a lot of memories and shared a lot of laughs with family and friends over the years. And even in down years, I still got to see the crème de la crème of the NFL come though PBS.
I won't let that old fool drive me away and make me give up something I enjoy. I will outlast him, and one day I'll walk into PBS knowing that Mike Brown is nothing more than a memory, and I'm still there. And brothers, what a glorious day that will be.
