I took off my Bengals sweater, and the Bengals promptly blew a 10-point lead...
I put it back on... and the Bengals win!!!!!!
It's gonna be REALLY TOUGH to NOT be superstitious from here on out.

I was 8 when we beat the Bill's I probably picked my nose through that game so I promise to do the same next week no matter if I go to the game or stay home. If we get to the 49ers the next week you old guys think really hard what you did and pull a Costanza and do the opposite.

I'm not superstitious, either, but I ate Skyline chili against the Raiders, and it worked.
Whipped up another can today even though I'd already eaten, just so I could take a couple bites for the game.
We start to lose, I take a couple more bites and we pull it out. The power of Skyline.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

Thank God they don’t play in July

I DON’T wear any Bengals gear on game day.
Or eat until after the game.

I wore my white Gio jersey last week and we won. Gio also won the following day. I wore it again today (because we won last time obviously I couldn’t change it up) and we won…..if we face the buccaneers in the Super Bowl I won’t know what to do

Me either but..
The last time we won a playoff game our first 2 opponents were Oilers (now Titans) and Raiders. IF we would have beaten the Raiders we would have faced the Bills in the AFC Championship Game. Let's go Buffalo and we can exercise all the demons of the last 31 years

This afternoon/tonight I wore the same Bengals sweatshirt and Bengals socks that I wore to PBS last Saturday for the WC game. In addition, I wore my Bengals lounging pants. I was taking no chances.

That'll be easy, I was at a Super Bowl party in a downtown Chicago loft as an 8 year old that year. I'm not leaving the house if they make it for a multitude of reasons, so mission already accomplished on this end!
But think of this...in 1988 the 49ers were the ones with Joe Cool at QB. In 2022, it'd be the Bengals...
