December 10, 201510 yr Cincinnati loves you when you're here and hates you when you leave (whether its your call or not). Don't buy that at all. This town hates a lot of its own. See Dalton, Andy and Votto, Joey...

December 10, 201510 yr Which is funny because I really enjoy both those guys :lol2: There are many ways both are historically good, and this town hates them all the same. One of the worst sports towns in America...
December 10, 201510 yr There are many ways both are historically good, and this town hates them all the same. One of the worst sports towns in America... Yep. The way I see it, Joey may very well end up the best player to ever put on a Reds uniform and Dalton is probably going to be the best QB Cincy has ever seen. Might as well enjoy it now. Sadly, most will waste it away complaining about what they need to do to fix the problems.

Only team in the city to never actually accomplish anything, but they are seen as the little engine that might. Only a championship is acceptable for the Reds/Bengals/Bearcats. X makes it to the second weekend and those guys are adorable... :lol2:

Most would like them to just try to make it to the second weekend just once for a senior class. Elite 8? Maybe once every 20 is the new bar?

December 10, 201510 yr Don't buy that at all. This town hates a lot of its own. See Dalton, Andy and Votto, Joey... That's true too. I was thinking more of Palmer and Ocho Cinco.
December 10, 201510 yr There are many ways both are historically good, and this town hates them all the same. One of the worst sports towns in America... I agree with a lot of things you say, but this by far is the one thing I agree with more than anything!
December 10, 201510 yr Author Wake me up when X sees a Final Four... When you have to go back to 1992..... It's clear which program has been more successful over the last 10 to 15 years. Fortunately, both are in strong positions now. Makes it much more fun.

Makes it much more fun. Last 5 years. Head to Head Xavier 3-2 (Average margin of victory over UC: 14) UC 2-3 (Average margin of victory over Xavier: 17.5) Regular Season Record UC 123-50 Xavier 106-60 Top 25 Wins UC 18 Xavier 10 NCAA Tourney Record UC 4-5 Xavier 4-4 X was clearly better while Mick rebuilt the program. Since then, not so much...

Since then, not so much... Only using 5 years supports my contention as far as "program." And since your initial shot used NCAA advancement let's not forget S16 appearances.
