January 10, 201610 yr I'm 52 so I'm way past getting upset when my team loses especially when you're used to it. I do feel bad for my 28-yr-old son who was just 3 when the Bengals last one. He has never watched his team that he is extremely passionate about and loyal to win a playoff game. I'll remind him tomorrow of the big picture . Players fumble. Happens. However, when you're a punk in college like Hill and when you're a punk like Burfict (so much so that you can't get drafted despite first round talent) and you're Pacman then you get nothing from me other than "you're a punk - you deserve it." 32,55,and 24 are punks. Always will be. Stripes do not change (pun intended).
January 10, 201610 yr The Steelers were Vegas ' s pick, so you weren't playing crazy odds. There is NO way you called that last 1:45 But of course I did! :lol2: Really I just knew that no matter how done things looked that they would urinate it away somehow. Deuce is friends with me on FB, he can vouch for my string of posts. There is no hope as a Bengals fan until Mike Brown up and keels over, even then if his family keeps running it the same way I fully expect many more years of failure. Thus is life as a Bengals fan.
January 10, 201610 yr Don't lose sight of the fact that they battled back and had the win in their back pocket! Selfishness trumped that and the Steelers advance. "WE win together, we lose together! " AJ GO BENGALS!
January 10, 201610 yr I have liked Ben since I saw him throwing darts in a Miami of Ohio Thursday night game played in hurricane conditions. Hope he's fully recovered for next week's game. He is a dirt bag human. Whatever happens, Karma will eventually play its part.
January 10, 201610 yr Only this game??????????????????? Well, it's kind of in my consciousness right now.
January 10, 201610 yr ESPN and NFLN showing replays of Brown being unconscious and looking like a rag doll are NOT good for the league. Big fine coming for 55.
January 10, 201610 yr Let me ask this question and it is hypothetical...if Burfict made the same hit as the Steelers player did on Bernard to knock him out of the game do you think it would have been called a penalty?
January 10, 201610 yr ESPN and NFLN showing replays of Brown being unconscious and looking like a rag doll are NOT good for the league. Big fine coming for 55. Or football in general.
January 10, 201610 yr Primetime is defending Burfict, saying he let up on the play and no way he meant to hit him in the head. Not so sure on this particular play, but Burfict definitely is targeted more closely than most players because of past plays... No doubt.
January 10, 201610 yr How are players paid in the post-season? Did the Bengals players lose money by losing this game?
January 10, 201610 yr Let me ask this question and it is hypothetical...if Burfict made the same hit as the Steelers player did on Bernard to knock him out of the game do you think it would have been called a penalty? Yes, bc he has earned his rep.
January 10, 201610 yr McCarron's press conference was perfect for a leader. I ride with him. He's a leader, think good things are in store for him.
January 10, 201610 yr He's a leader, think good things are in store for him. His contract is much better also
