ME: Um, yeah...I guess so now that you mention it.

Non-Bengals Fan: Shouldn't they have done that like 2 years ago?

FAST FORWARD TO THE YEAR 20XX
ME: Hey, the Bengals fired Marvin Lewis!
Non-Bengals Fan: Shouldn't they have done that like 42 years ago?
ME: Um, yeah...I guess so now that you mention it.
My optimism is subject to change at any moment of season. lol
Really liked all the off season moves made though and feel there may be another still to come.
But we still will be stuck with Marvin. Who is really a pretty solid coach if you do not count his pitiful clock management and his foolish efforts to sit on a lead way too early in game.
Drives me crazy but maybe one of these new coaches will be able to persuade Marv to do right things.
