jditty47 Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 For the home game vs the steelers all bengal fans should be either given a page sized poster at the gate or be required to bring one to the game. The poster is just of an asteric like the one the phillies showed bonds yesterday and it was CLASSIC. This should be done for that game....just think, if the whole stadium has it, it will definately be shown on all media outlets and the truth will be rewarded =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duus Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 Amazing ... I just saw this picture on ESPN's site, and thought of EXACTLY the same thing. I came here to suggest it, and, what do you know, it's already here! Nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sodikart Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 That would def. be awesome to have the game and everyone hold up astericks. It would have to be fan oriented bringing them in, I wonder how much something like that would cost. I hope this post gains mometum and something about. That would be classic.

F.Cleveland Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 AWESOME!!!! And if that game means anything, you know it will get moved to the Sunday night game.... Big ben might even cry when we win. Who wants to bet me his tears look like little asterics up close? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 I wouldn't be big on stealing an idea from the Phillies fans.Then again, I never bought the whole asterisk thing anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cincy90 Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 We could do somethin like that, but I think it'd be kinda weak to do the exact same thing that's already been done. Where's all of the creativity? We've got plenty of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bengalskyspy Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Ha Ha You guys are hillarious. At least spell it correctly---- asterisk! Sorry for playing English teacher, but I wouldn't want some "Stealer" fan calling you a bunch of morons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turnip Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Such a stunt would be childish. Remember, this isn't Cleveland!Cleveland fans would bring glass askerisks and throw them onto the field. Then roll around in their own poop for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekshank Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 If by December 31st we can't get over the fact that the Steelers won the super bowl... no matter how illegitimately... it will be one of the things that those annoying PTI guys make fun of us about. Get over it. It will be the last game of the season... and possibly a game that determines the winner of the division. If we'll still be complaining about last year, we'll deserve whatever we get when it comes to being made fun of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jditty47 Posted May 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 if were in the playoff chase noone will be making fun of us about it. man u guys are a bunch of pu**ies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekshank Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 if were in the playoff chase noone will be making fun of us about it. man u guys are a bunch of pu**ies.You're wrong again. The media never misses a chance to pound on Red Sox fans who can't get over their inferiority complexes enough to enjoy their own success. They were chanting "Yankees suck" when the Patriots won the Super Bowl! That is just sad. If we are winning the division, but can't get over the fact that the Steelers won last year, then we have issues for which we should seek professional help. Enjoy your own success, and don't dwell on the success of your rival. This will lead to a happy life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spor_tees Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Some of you guys are missing the point. Fan participation is what makes this game and rivalry so fun and exciting. Doing the asterisks thing in the "Stealer's" logo and everyone holding it up in the stands isn't as much begrudging the fact they won the Superbowl as it is getting in their heads and taking their mind off the game to help our team. It's probably childish to dress up in customs and paint your face when you are an adult too...but how many thousands of Bengal fans do it EVERY game day? So get off your soap box and do your best to support your team instead of worrying what the other guy thinks, because quite honestly, the other guy is already plotting what he can do to get in every Bengal's players head when they roll into their town.

Yeah... I'm sure that Ben is wringing his hands about the signs that Bengal fans might be holding up. The only way fans get into the heads of professional athletes is to be incredibly loud. I don't begrudge anyone the right to dress up and have as much fun as they want in the stands. I think it is good for the NFL, and shows Bengal fans as loyal and even crazy. That's not all bad... but when you are reduced to holding up signs because of jealousy, that doesn't reflect well on Bengal fans. It was the same way with the Steelers "we dey" chant. It showed me that we as Bengal fans were in their heads enough that after winning the Super Bowl they were still trying to justify their tainted victory over Cincinnati. Excuse me for not wanting to share anything in common with those rednecks.Just enjoy the fact that we are and will be better than them. That speaks for itself.

ArmyBengal Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Well, I'm siding with Derek on this one... I think come December, if we are still hung up on last years Superbowl champ, it's pathetic. If nothing else, it shows they got into our heads as fans and gives them even more room to gloat. LET IT DIE ALREADY !!! Hopefully, we will be on our way to the playoffs again and THAT is something to get all crazy about.Don't get me wrong, be a good fan and support the hell out of your team, but don't do dumbass sh*t that brings a negativity to the team and the City. The whole thought of this coming from a fan from Philly should speak volumes in and of itself, they are all a bunch of classless assh*les to begin with.If you want to get in the heads of an NFL player at the game, show up to the game and make some F*CKING NOISE !!! Be as loud as you can be and make it hard for the opposing QB to call his plays. I know everyone has the right to watch and cheer how they wish, but seriously folks, this ain't golf !!! WAKE THE F*CK UP AND GET MOTIVATED !!!WHODEY !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keller Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 I can't believe I'm the first to suggest this, but won't the sweetest thing about the December 31st game be the fact that it will be the backups playing the Steelers while we rest the starters for the playoffs? We'll have the North all wrapped up long before Dec. 31st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tasher Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 so do the Bengals and Steelers play twice in a 3-4 week span? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we'll still be complaining about last year, we'll deserve whatever we get when it comes to being made fun of.Agreed. At that point I hope we are more worried about the outcome of that game than we are about what happened the year before. By Dec 31, it will be old, old news.

jditty47 Posted May 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 carson's injury will be old news by dec 31st? right....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stilldiesel Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 carson's injury will be old news by dec 31st? right.......I think the difference between the Steelers and Bonds is that Bonds CHOSE to take steroids. While I believe many of the SB calls were correct that is irrelevant. What is relevant is that the refs called things against the Stillers in Indy. The point is that no one controls the refs. If they did we should all stop watching the NFL right now. Seriously, if the Rooneys could pay Tagliabue off then we should all stop watching football. Bonds CHOSE to take steroids and that is why this is a national controversy constantly talked about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
