I get that you have made this Board your entire life and I admire your enthusiasm and love of football..but I have noticed you and a few select others that get offended by new members on this Board..get over it..I don't really care what you would expect nor did anyone appoint you grammar and literacy expert..But..since we have a great Board of sports contributors sir..anytime you want to meet for lunch and or drinks..or both..my treat  ..we can compare degrees . In addition to getting an MBA/MHA from Xavier I also obtained an Masters in Public Health from  the Chan School of Public Health ( Harvard) and I doubt very seriously that your educational background  can match that..We hospital administrators also cuss and do many of the normal things that most people do. Now why dont you stick to discussions and topics rather that attacking and critiquing  others on their grammar and spelling ..Thank you

I'm certainly glad that you are so highly educated and accomplished. However that does not give you any right to tell any other fan what to think, how to feel or what players they should or shouldn't like or dislike. The board has always been accepting of all spectrum of Bengal fans, even the mothership years. If fans want to express negative sentiment they are as equally welcome to do so as the ultra positive fans.

why do we argue with each other when we have 0% effect on the team basically

I wonder this myself from time to time.

Makes no sense. Then again you and I ***** and over-react in the Game Day forums all season long and that has no affect on anything, either.
This is just a great place to vent, celebrate and share opinions with other Bengals fans.
Just gets to be too much when fans go too far one way - either everything the team does is stupid or everything they do is brilliant with no in between.

According to this logic, we should just shut down the board.

wrong. there are people who are critical of bad moves, and then there's the Denny Gs and Hobsons who get mad when you arent super positive

ok maybe there's like 1 or 2 always ultra negative posters, but they are far out numbered by the irrationally positive

[BengalsBong]

We got two linebackers and two guard/OT guys for the Oline which is what I was wanting.

Safety is only spot they didn't touch kind of had a feeling they was going to give Geno Stone another shot, and Tycen Anderson is still my guy.

Overall, I am happy with the draft.

The negative stuff yeah going to stay away from that it's not going to bring my offseason fun down.

Some people just always find a reason to ***** and moan.

WHO DEY LETS GO!!!

My mentality on the Bengals has been the same way before i found the ability to tell people to go **** themselves with zero repercussions.

I'm rfaulk34 and i approve this message. 

And my next 10 Bengals takes will probably be all positive, because i always roll both ways.

We had a roster that was carried by three players: Chase, Burrow, Hendrickson.

Everything done in the offseason was done to not piss off two of those three and to keep a status quo. The Bengals then proceeded to draft the follwoing:

Round 1: Myles Murphy 2.0
Round 2: A carbon copy of Germaine Pratt
Round 3: Bottom-of-the-barrell guard
Round 4: LB with potential
Round 5: Hakeem Adeniji 2.0
Round 6: Sleeper RB that could be good, but we're a pass first team so.....


This is the same team as last season, possibly even worse since rookies are going to need time. How do  any of these players make us better this year?

They're 3-0 against us in recent memory, and have two conference titles and one SB since that '21 season. 

There isn't much for Tiddy Meat and Cheifsplanet to ***** about these days. 

Ownership is cheap and smug there too, but at least they can ***** draft.

True....lol. My point is you can disagree without arguing, I'm guessing every other NFL board has arguments too.

[THE PISTONS]

In any draft, a team is lucky to get 2 starters.

People tend to look at drafts and pencil all the guys in as future starters.

As far as us being close the past 2 years. Our defense was horrible. We have several elite players. We have average players. We have some bad starters too. Our roster needs more above average to good players. Until that happens, we'll miss out on the playoffs.
