Dan2330 Posted August 7, 2009 Report Posted August 7, 2009 I am looking forward to see how the Bengals come off on Hard Knocks. I think this is a golden chance for the team to shed it's bad reputation around the league and with other players- especially soon to be free agents that might want to give Cincy a look. Would have been nice to have the first rounder signed and in camp, that could have sent a message since I am sure HBO will focus a lot of material on that. Anyone else have any pre-show feelings on how they think this is going to turn out? IMO the Cowboys came across as HORRID on HK last year! Quote
membengal Posted August 7, 2009 Report Posted August 7, 2009 I'm looking forward to it. Just seeing that much concentrated Bengals coverage from that professional a crew will be fascinating. Quote
ShulaSteakhouse Posted August 7, 2009 Report Posted August 7, 2009 Yeah I may be calling Insight today for an HBO trial. Does anyone know, by the way, if the scrimmage will be streamed online tonight as it has in the past somewhere? (Bengals.com?)I don't see anything about it yet. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted August 7, 2009 Report Posted August 7, 2009 I think if youare a Bengals fan, Hard Knocks will be fun to watch if for no other reason than it gives you a look at the franchise you won't see in any other media outlet. I'm still trying to get a months worth of HBO for free to watch... Quote

And I imagine it'll be fun for me, too.That's cool DPD and I'm glad you come back to the board every here and there to add some thought from the other side of things.My line of thought with ANY Hard Knocks team is, it would HAVE to be more interesting to the fans of the team actually participating.There are some teams that I could see taking an interest in just for the hell of it though.

HoTbOy Posted August 8, 2009 Report Posted August 8, 2009 Just me but I think the only way that the Bengals can shed their rep as a bad team is to win games and be a consistent playoff contender...I don't think that 1 season of HK can erase 20+ season of futility... Quote
w8th Posted August 11, 2009 Report Posted August 11, 2009 It appears you can watch Hard Knocks on hbo.com (or at least the first episode)/>http://www.hboondemand.com/apps/hodschedule/hod/details.do?FID=PMRS196668 Quote
Pidge Posted August 11, 2009 Report Posted August 11, 2009 Anyone know of a good torrent site I might be able to download this series from after it concludes? Quote
Kazkal Posted August 11, 2009 Report Posted August 11, 2009 I would like to see the Dolphins camp myself find out why all these players are quiting haha. Quote
Bearcat1975 Posted August 11, 2009 Report Posted August 11, 2009 I signed up with HBO for a month. Should be really interesting to see so much camp footage. Quote
jjakq27 Posted August 12, 2009 Report Posted August 12, 2009 Any idea if any sports bars in the Cincinnati area will be showing this?PS: Note to Bengals, this would be a great opportunity to open up PBS like they do for the away games and give people a reason to come down to the stadium. Quote
kingwilly Posted August 12, 2009 Report Posted August 12, 2009 When I have watch the other teams it was more entertaining as I had no general awareness of the team and what was happening at any given time. Since we all closely follow the Bengals, it seems like it might come off as cold and stale. I will look forward to seeing the inside of how things work with the team but as for insights and news, it may be past the date when it would be fresh.I will say there areplenty of storylines to develop.1. Palmer - Chad2. Rookies - in camp or not. I wonder if anyone will say3. Veterans just trying to restart their career (Williams) or hanging on (or being cut like Watson)4. Coaches - Zimmer is an appealing figure5. Ownership - I wonder if they will highlight his failings and note WDR efforts to raise the issues6. USC alums (or any like contingents) - Rivers, Rey, Carson, Frostee7. Injuries - knock on wood. Quote

This is going to be a good season, I can feel it! We deserve a good season damnit.Skyline chili dip is alright, too many calories for me lol. I gotta watch my figure. One of the girls is making it but thanks for the suggestion... You guys have any other ideas? Quote
