Mike had COVID and was unable to see the most consequential game of his ownership in person. He’s really old so I am glad he is doing ok now. However, not that I am a superstitious person(the power is in the socks..cough cough) but maybe he should stay in Cincinnati this weekend just in case

Dang that's really sad. Some of my first post game thoughts were of him and what it must mean to him after all these years. Hopefully he's around for a few more successful runs!

Didn't Hobson write an article saying this 5 days ago on Bengals.com ?
No big deal but just thought this was confirmed.
Know Hobson spins a lot of things but certainly he would not spin this sort of thing, especially being a company man.

Oh and I am superstitious and not attending game this year to do my part, and I love Nashville.
But as said before I bought season tickets right after Bengals last playoff win and had them for 30 years without any playoff success.
Had some great seasons though, but anyway when I sold them this year decided to not attend for 1 whole year to try and help out lol.
So far it has worked and not chancing it now and showing my face in Nashville. Yet suspect MB will be present but that did not hurt us against the Chiefs so just thinking its me lol.
Yet after attending over 300 NFL games its not too bad watching on TV at my age now, yet miss my seats.

So it was never a Bo Jackson curse, it was a Son of Paul curse?

You can just shorten it up like most of us and call him Hobspin.

Wow. That’s a bummer. I can’t imagine he has missed many games

He hasn't. He missed his first regular-season game in franchise history last season because of COVID restrictions so he didn't travel to Cleveland. The only other game he missed was a preseason game, the week his Dad died. Pretty remarkable record

Disappointing that he wasn't in the locker room post game for that celebration but that explains why. Must have been gut wrenching for him to miss it.

Damn shame that we finally get him his playoff win and he couldn't even be there for it.
Get better Big Mike! Thanks for keeping the Bengals in Cincinnati!

The Bengals will just have to get him another win tomorrow.
Problem solved.

Well he is there in Nashville this week, so if we lose we all know who to blame.

I’ve been pretty rough on him over the years, but this sucks. Hope he makes it to Nashville…
