this guy makes sense

[JBUCK66]

for 30 years I have lived in closer proximity to SF than to Cincinnati. I get to listen to all the giants/niners games. They are both decent franchises.

I watched the reds/ bengals in what will be their best years.

Please talk me into or out of making this move. I don't think I can bear the burden of loserism much longer.

2.5 hour drive to Indy, 4.5 hour drive to Cleveland, ~5 or so hour drive to Tennessee, and you can enjoy the mountains when you are there.

yea, there's plenty of reason to find another team to follow, its just a damned circus around here every year. it's convenient to walk over to paul brown stadium and plop your azz down and scratch your head every year. we all do it. we should just face the facts, we're lazy.

I get the sentiment. Who isn't tired of the bullshit, but I could no more turn off my love for the Bengals than I could decide to just stop being a member of my family. As much as I hate Mike Brown and Marvin Lewis and the crap I've been put through, come Sunday, I'm still hoping they win. That's a fan. The dick who supposedly sold his loyalty was never a fan. You can't just turn off your fandom. Fuck him.

I don't know if he's a fan or not, but he's 500$ richer.

you know he's secretly rooting for the Bengals anyhow.

So sad, but so true.............on the good side, there's only one beatdown apiece left from the Stillers and Ratbirds....this season, that is.......

 

[Restore the Roar]

At least you "locals" have some sort of logical reason for rooting for this sad franchise. I must be truly insane....the closest I've ever been to Ohio is Wyoming.

I have no explanation. I have no clue why.....but I still watch and I still root

There's always suicide.

Naw as soon as I killed myself, MB would die and the the fuckers would win the superbowl.....

I supose I could take one for the team but I just don't like you guys that much.

If I ever announce that I am a Steelers fan I certainly hope that my friends will promptly kill me. These SW Ohio Steelers fan make my fucking blood boil. I saw some doosh bag the other day with a "WE DAY" license plate and I almost had a road rage incident. It was the day the Reds lost game 5 and I definitely had homicidal feelings.

 

[vancelot23]

I asked somebody on Twitter about that. They were a Reds fan, but a Steelers fan too. I asked them how that was possible and got a reply of "There are a lot of us. Baseball is baseball. Football is football." I promptly blocked them.

 

[DanBengalfan]

much respect man...

I can't stop rooting for this under"cat" team

 

[JBUCK66]

I'm conflicted to say the least

nobody gives a shat anyway....think of the fool who paid the $500....what an idiot

 

[cincygrad]

LOL! That's cute that the Enquirer thinks I'll pay to read their paper online.

I wouldn't rap a fresh fish in that paper.... It's a horrible product and always has been.

I'll miss reading some of Doc's articles. As for the rest of the paper? I think I'll be just fine.

Been like that for 3 weeks now. They're off their rocker.

I see I used 'rap' instead of 'wrap.' That's because I'm gangster. And partially hammered.

I had 2 glasses of wine at PF Changs and now I'm on my 4th whiskey. It's all over for me.




Not really..I'm a pro.

I'm in for a marathon of drinking this weekend..... I don't shit most of the year, but when things pop up they come in bunches.

It's ironic that your drinking binge comes on a weekend in which the bengals aren't playing.

You might want to seek medical advice for that. The not shitting for most of the year part.....the drinking is perfectly normal

I know. This is supposed to be the weekend that my liver gets a rest.
