We don't need no stinking help.

BTW I have found that most people who claim they are superior to others because they don't "accept mediocrity" usually live pretty mediocre lives.  So get off your high horse.  I am not impressed by whining.

But you're missing the point, Fred.  And the point is, the louder you *****, the better fan you are.  And if you don't incessantly complain about the obvious and unchangeable, that means you accept mediocrity.  You know--it's new math, contemporary logic.

There really is one simple thing about all this--being a fan of a team does not come with guarantees of championships.  It's enter at your own risk and this probably pertains to the Bengals as much as any other team.   This is a blatantly obvious fact that, for some reason, escapes many.
