I follow the Cleveland Cavs message board and they have a rant thread that we use to get out our knee jerk takes that may be a little bit illogical or out there.
It has seemed to keep crazy threads off the board because whenever we get mad at the Cavs ppl just post in there instead of making 10 separate threads of crazy shit like “Trade Darius Garland for a bag of chips because he had one bad game”
I imagine a thread like that, could be a good outlet for ppl here who may want to say crazy shit but don’t wanna get made fun of
The only rule in the rant thread is no going crazy on ppl who post stupid takes. It’s a rant thread for a reason. Ppl are going to say stupid shit.
I’ll start one here and see how it goes.

I miss the days when players wore slick suits when they got to the stadium on gamedays instead of the current ego clown attires. *raises fist at clouds*

I got nothing.
This team started the last 2 season 5-4 and still went to the AFC championship.

Aw, more of the "people should not be held accountable for what they say or do" attitude that permeates today's society. If a person is going to say something totally stupid, they need to own it.

The two left over should be used as weapons. It's the only logical reason, in my opinion.

Why do some people say, "We" when talking about the team?
B****, you ain't on the team!
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
Sorry for Party Rocking!

Why does State Farm give all that money to Mahomes and Maauto? Help the Bengals pay for Burrow and Chase!

We already have a place for rants and moronic takes.
It’s called the GameDay thread…

Exactly,, or they say "My Ravens". The same X experts that say Bengals are a poverty team.

One thing that irks me is our inferiority complex as Bengals fans. It's like our most resilient trait. We're the last ones to leave the past in the past. As if we're more comfortable losing, the sky is falling hysteria is always within reach, the refs conspire against us, we're cursed... all this nonsense. Enough already lol
To be fair, it's a blurry line between being absurd and just a regular emotional fan. Plus we did suck for a long time, and I make it worse by bringing it up. But I still think we're too quick to reach for excuses and, in some backwards way, would almost rather resurrect our sorry past because that's where we feel most at home. Not only do we favor the voice of the devil on our shoulder, we also allow him to clamp his hands around our neck. That psychological battle is tiresome!
Good news is that it's fading now. With Burrow leading the charge, we embrace our inner alpha in a way we never did before, and that's what it's all about. The journey to a Lombardi is not a straight line. We have more fans who feel we than we can/should beat anyone and the season's a long way from over, than we ever had before...
But I can still hear those little flies out there buzzing around and I wish I had the bug repellent to zap em. :)

Rant threads are more designed for directly after games
I truly feel like the Cavs board got better after they started doing theirs
