If it were a situation identical to Cleveland I would support a new team if it came and took the same name and colors (as the Browns did). I doubt that any (or very few) Clevelanders supported the Ravens. But then everyone knew there would be an expansion team in Cleveland. As has been stated in this thread, it's very doubtful Cincy would get another NFL team. Maybe one of those new football leagues would come here but who in the hell cares about that. I'm not sure the people of Cincinnati appreciate how great it is to be a NFL city.

I would have to see where my heart led me. I would certainly have moved on from the Bengals long ago, if I could. But I just can't go, in spite of the unbelievable mismanagement of the team. Maybe if they left the area, I could let it go, and follow an operation I have a little more respect for, but that would remain to be seen. They have a grip on me.
The most laughable part of the Bengals is their adamant defense of the way they operate, in spite of years of failure and falling short. Like, yeah, Bobby Hart is a good player, etc. And yet here I am, still.

It would be a shame if the Brown family left Ohio they are such a big part of football in Ohio from PeeWee to the Pros. I don't think they will ever consider leaving Cincinnati.
