My question regarding the Bengals brought out the misery in many a fan. As you guys pointed out I am not suffering alone. But being so close and having so many opportunities just leaves Cinti fans drained. However, heres to you Lions fans (Kitna really shined), Raiders fans (#1 pick) Vikings (you have the history) and all the other "I only wish they would have" fans. As we slump off into the off season, I can here it clearly..."just wait until next year" it could be worse!!!

Yes I agree it sucks!!! I am a Viking fan mainly and was also hoping for some better things out of them but oh well now I just am going with Seattle which is the team I like next in line since they are close to Montana. (Plus I am a fan of ANY team playing against the cowboys!)
Also I do follow the Bengals since my little boy likes them alot so yes I feel your pain. Hang in their bud!
p.s. Go Wolverines!!!!!!!!!!

I understand the pain...the bengals went into the season believing they were Super Bowl contenders. They need to look at the roster and purge some of the guys who dont get the concept of good citizenship and I think they will be fine. Being a Lion fan (as I unfortunately am) offers no such hope. Incompetence has ruled the Lions for longer than I have been alive (in excess of 40 years...thats all i can admit to) and the future doesnt offer much hope. Seeing a late season surge like the last 2 games this year is nothing new to Lions fans, it only allows the Fords to pretend things are getting better (24-72 record over the last 6 seasons). Keep your head high at least "wait till next year" actually does offer some hope for you. Us Lions fans can only hope that someday the Fords will sell the team. We have won exactly 1 playoff game since the Super Bowl was created... I remember the Bengal-49er Super Bowl held here back in '81 (man was it cold). That and last years Super Bowl being played here are as close as we will ever get to dreaming about Super Bowls ( I think we would be thrilled with a .500 season at this point but with Millen runnig the show that is a pipe dream). For the last 20 years we actually believed it couldnt get much worse but 6 years ago along came Millen and somehow he took pathetic to a new level.

haha, the broncos beat you!
(i didn't understand the rest of the question, but i just had to gloat a little about that. of course we just got kicked out of the playoffs and out cornerback was shot {Darrent Williams rest in peace} so i really shouldn't be talking!)

Don't feel bad. Yeah, it sucks to hear "maybe next year"...but it happens to all of us. (sometimes for 10-15 yrs). lol.
Have a great New Year.
