August 20, 200818 yr Brown wants to win, he just has zero clue how to do it... Which is why I always wished he would hire a GM from the outside and not a family member. But we know that will never happen.
August 20, 200818 yr Which is why I always wished he would hire a GM from the outside and not a family member. But we know that will never happen. Wouldn't matter. He'd force the same stuff on a GM...
August 20, 200818 yr Henry said the Bengals were the only team willing to offer a contract at this time. "My agents spoke with other teams, but as far as signing, there was none of them," Henry said, dressed in street clothes while the team finished practice. Before the Bengals made their offer, Henry worried that he might never play in the NFL again. That says volumes of the character of the owner and the franchise. They continue to be a national laughing stock.
August 20, 200818 yr Bringing Henry back is a joke!!! Nobody wanted him including Marvin Lewis. Mike Brown is a joke and the Bengals fans (don't include me) should be looking for another team to support. This just shows that the Bengal's management talks out of both ends. Just another reason to laugh at the Bengals (might as well, everyone else is). The entire franchise is a joke (always has been and always will be). HaHaHa.:laugh::laugh::laugh:
August 20, 200818 yr I hope he stays out of trouble... Not many players get this many oppurtunities...
August 20, 200818 yr I haven't posted on this untill now, I have tried to stay away but just couldn't. I would love to be able to say that I am shocked by the Bengals doing this but I cannot. I will say flat out that the Cincinnati Bengals are the worst managed organization in all of professional sports. A move like this shows what they (Bengals front office) are made of.............Nothing! Not long imo before it is back to the 90's for this team. Should I be wrong I will enjoy that plate of crow but as for now those are my feelings on this latest pathetic move by this teams management. What's next, bars on their lockers....parole officers press conferences instead of coaches? Or maybe just go ahead and make them (parole officers) the coaches. Yep, it's late and I am sleepy and ticked off. I don't think that I could ever bring myself to root against the Bengals, I am just no longer going to root for them. I should have summed this entire post and my feelings on it in just two simple but appropriate words...........this sucks!

August 20, 200818 yr So he'd never get another job? Come on GT, he's sacrificing all moral and ethical values for a THIRD receiver. This isn't TO or #80, it's Chris freakin Henry. Doesn't seem like it's worth it. But, when they're down to 52 because this clown throws a ketchup bottle at Flo, he'll be looking for a new job as a coach that was over .500 once...AND with zero integrity... Was Henry picked up by another team? Would it be okay if it were To or #80? Aren't morals and ethics, without boundaries?
August 20, 200818 yr Utecht is a top 5-8 TE? He's capable, yes, he was playing behind someone else. Based off his numbers, no he's not, but his ability is certainly there.
August 20, 200818 yr Would it be okay if it were To or #80? Aren't morals and ethics, without boundaries? Agreed. I was just pointing out that it didn't take much...
August 20, 200818 yr Maybe Henry isn't as stupid as he has acted in the past... You figure he has to like Cincinnati. It doesn't seem like he ever gave much serious thought to leaving as long as the Bengals would take him back. And maybe he realized how good of a gig he has here if he stays outta trouble, considering elsewhere he would be at least double teamed everytime he was in the game, and probably wouldn't have as good of a QB as he does here. But IMO, Henry may not make as much difference to the offense as Chris Perry will if he stays healthy... I don't know if that had anything to do with it. This quote from the article on his signing is very telling: Henry said the Bengals were the only team willing to offer a contract at this time. "My agents spoke with other teams, but as far as signing, there was none of them," Henry said, dressed in street clothes while the team finished practice. Before the Bengals made their offer, Henry worried that he might never play in the NFL again. Sounds like it might have been the Bengals, Canada or the Arena League. The quote I really like is the one from Brown when he was released: "His conduct can no longer be tolerated," Brown said at the time. "The Bengals tried for an extended period of time to support Chris and his potentially bright career. We had hoped to guide him toward an appropriate standard of personal responsibility that this community would support and that would allow him to play in the NFL. ... But those efforts end today, as we move on with what is best for our team." Brown's a hypocrite and the Bengals are a joke.
August 20, 200818 yr After thinking about this, what does Brown have to lose? He's already considered a blooming idiot. He really can't become a bigger one, can he? Bengirls are hurting at WR, so he signs Henry. What happens if Henry doesn't screw up (I know that's a stretch) and plays to his potential? Maybe Brown is looked upon as a guy who made a good move, gave a kid another chance and helped his club. How can he go wrong? And if he fails like most suspect,,,, Are there different level's of horse's rearend?
August 20, 200818 yr He's capable, yes, he was playing behind someone else. Based off his numbers, no he's not, but his ability is certainly there. Kevin Boss has the ability to be a top 5-8 TE. Heck, a lot of players have the ability, that doesn't mean they are top 5. Not even close.

QUOTE] I understand the sentiment but don't fool yourself into thinking Chris Henry is just another third WR. When he's playing, he's the best "third WR" out there, in my opinion. He's only a 3rd WR because the two ahead of him are two of the best in the game.
