I’m there right now! When I grabbed my food the pimply-faced Arby’s drive-thru teenager said, “Here’s your double combo with potato cakes. And by the way the greedy Brown family would rather win every negotiation than football games.” I said, “Et tu, pimply-faced Arby’s drive-thru teenager?” He goes, “Just giving the people what they want.” GETTIN’ TROLLED!

These bengal-hating media types have inside info they won’t share with us because it might make the bengals look good!!! Gettin’ trolled!

In my opinion this reduces his chances of an extension to near zero. The bengals will offer him a raise for this season then he’ll be free to go anywhere in 2026.

Remember Chinedum Ndukwe? 7th rounder for us but he played. I remember he took an off-season trip to Liberia. Most memorable thing when he came back - He said the physicality of the people in Liberia was almost otherworldly. He said there were regular guys just walking around on the street who looked like they could step right on an NFL field and play.

Holy shit. So taxpayers are basically funding the Brown family’s business. The Hamilton County Commissioners should begin the legal process right now to seize ownership of the team through eminent domain.

I hope we don’t get some good guards in here to Cincy so we don’t start sucking like Kansas City.

Don’t trust your own sensory organs. For instance, if you watch “Quarterback”, and you think you see our franchise quarterback profanely raging at his head coach over our clueless and incompetent line play, AFTER A WIN, don’t believe it. Don’t let your own eyes troll you. Your eyes are very likely in an unholy alliance with a cabal of demonic, bengal-hating, sports reporters who’s sole purpose is to troll you into thinking our front office is an understaffed herd of drooling cheapskates who’s greatest accomplishment was tanking the 2019 season so they could hold Joe Burrow hostage for 15 or 20 years.

The theme that we don’t pay guards, that we just draft 4th rounders or pull disabled vets off the embalming table for a last go is just a false narrative promulgated by an evil cabal of bengal-hating media members. Stop letting yourself get trolled. example of trolling below, don’t read unless you are voluntarily being trolled: According to PFF, Alex Cappa finished dead last among starting guards in all three major protection categories: pressures (51), hurries (36), and sacks allowed (eight, tied with Houston's Shaq Mason).

90 million for a guard? Guarantee the dentures were flying across the breakfast table this morning.

That’s a great pair. Lap means a lot to me.

If getting trolled by evil cabal of bengals-hating media is wrong, I don’t wanna be right.

No surprise. They’ve done very little to improve one of the worst defenses in the league, a defense that objectively cost them games last year. Fans aren’t blind. All that has to happen is that Al Golden needs to turn out to be J. Robert Oppenheimer, Vince Lombardi, and Albus Dumbledore all rolled into one. It could happen.

I heard he’s going to petition the Florida High School Athletic Association and go back to play for his high school team.

The tribe would have won that game 7 if that stupid rain delay hadn’t occurred. Our setup guy, Bryan Shaw, was on the mound in extra innings and I knew he’d get it done. Then 20 minute rain delay, Shaw was pretty old and I knew there was no way that once he was warmed up, he’d be able to handle that delay. Sure enough he gave up the game-winning run, leaving me personally traumatized, bitter, and ultimately, truly, without hope.

Mike reads this and says, “Hold my 1945 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Pinot Noir”

Sorry Army, no defensive ends yet. But living a virtuous life, characterized by wisdom, justice, courage, and temperance, is the next best thing to getting a good free agent tight end.

Zac’s like let’s enjoy our participation trophy, Burrow’s like dude I play for real, gtfo.

Read a report about Ramsey - long time dolphins beat reporter said Ramsey was a fuckhead who undermined the coaches and was basically a classic locker room malcontent. So the Steelers bring in Rodgers and this dude? Tomlin must be desperate.

Music Band t-shirt is the coup de grace.

Very dope. Very fresh. It almost defies reason that there is someone in the bengals’ org that thinks using the word phat would be current or relevant. It gives the impression that the team is run by a bunch of old people who don’t know anything about modern culture. And instead of hiring someone who does, or just being genuine about who you are, (example: the locker room phrase would read “Amortize, Itemize, Write-Off”, they just put no effort into it. They mean well, otherwise it would be patronizing.

Steelers trading Minkah. I’m so glad to not see this dude in a Steeler uniform anymore. He’s a very good player and it’s not a move that is improving the Steelers.

Also good for showing your mom’s new boyfriend (Rick left after being cut down to size) who the man of the house is.

Stadium decision is nigh. The bengals don’t have enough staff. From what I can tell, the same people are trying to negotiate a giant agreement with the county while at the same time maneuvering to get Trey to accept a raise/extension and get our first rounder signed. It’s no wonder the common complaint is “we just don’t hear from the bengals.” They need more competent people.

Giant dollar sign hat must be worn to his court appearance. Let the judge know who he’s dealing with.

I hope Trey signs soon. Then we get the rookie signed and Al Golden at least has a chance to 1. Have his best defender in camp and 2. Develop his first rounder, a pick he undoubtedly influenced. If the FO dithers around with these dudes and doesn’t get them in here until week one, ala Chase last year, it’s not just screwing the players and the fans, it is royally screwing Al Golden.
