jjakq27 Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 Time to get started.I haven't heard this theme very much this year but to me it's about the unfinished business from last year.A lot of stuff happened during the course of the year but they weathered it and made the playoffs. People were obviously down on them after the season but I believe they are in a position to do some great things this year. A big first step is beating New England tomorrow.
COB Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 I can hardly wait for this game to start. Come on Bengals!
Stripes Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 I'm feeling better about the game as kickoff continues to draw nearer. Play physical AFC North football from the first snap, and make sure New England knows exactly which brand of Bengals football they're dealing with.Then when they're least prepared, let Carson toss it downfield.Here's what I had to say about it on Facebook:The first day of Bengals football is the best day of the year. I actually am fighting a slight shaking in my gut, and I can't stop moving around. I never look forward to anything with nearly the sensationally mad fervor that I enjoy on Bengals Eve.And in the final minutes prior to kickoff, I'll be a nervous wreck. Tomorrow I'll have to watch the game in a billiard room with wi-fi, allowing me to catch an online stream with a reliable signal. The first important play, good or bad, will have me spazzing out in the presence of many strangers. Their raised eyebrows won't matter, and if any of them dares to make a comment I'll probably begin roaring profanity.GAH WHO DEY
bwillycuse Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 Its a great day. I've been waiting for this since the draft. Preseason is such a long,long tease.I've been up since 6am. I'm pumped.In five hours ill be in a bw3 experiencing nfl overload. In a sea of browns fans and too many steeler fans. Pats are going down. I think we will have a good day.
membengal Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 Happy opening day, everyone.Who dey.
bwillycuse Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 I woke up too early. Someone knock me out for a couple hours.
ArmyBengal Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 I woke up at 4am today and haven't been able to relax. Even now, I find myself looking at the clock every few minutes to see how much closer it is to gametime and when I need to leave here to get to the local sports bar on time to get a good seat. I've got my jersey on and I'm ready to go. I'm looking forward to all the yelling and hanging out with other football fans. I just love football season.I'm going to get some good food, drink some nice frosty beverages, and yell like crazy at the TV.I won't be here until later on today, so you guys have a good one.GO BENGALS !!!WHOF*CKINGDEY !!!
cHaD711Johnson Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 I'm so pumped for this game. I hate waking up 3 hours before the game actually starts though.
NbleSavage Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 Opening Day is like Christmas, your birthday and being named the Official Oil Boy to the Swedish Bikini Team, all wrapped-up in a blueberry pancake and deep-fried in chocolate sauce.WHO-DEY!!
HoosierCat Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 sounds like some bengals & pats talk coming up here on espn sunday countdown.
HoosierCat Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 inactives per reedy:bengals inactives LeFevour (3rd QB), RB Leonard, CB Ghee, C Stephens, LB Muckelroy, WR Caldwell, DT Sims, DE Dunlap
HoosierCat Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 PER MORTENSON WELKER IS OUTadded: RB Maroney out too
bwillycuse Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 PER MORTENSON WELKER IS OUTadded: RB Maroney out tooRU serious on Welker? Reedy saying not inactive and I just got info that he was active.Edelman and Maroney out.
HoosierCat Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 Yeah looks like Mort flubbed the tweet. Welker is in.
cHaD711Johnson Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 Surprised that Sims, Dunlap and Caldwell are out.. Not so much Caldwell because of the injury. Jerome Simpson plays though now, interesting.
bwillycuse Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 Yeah looks like Mort flubbed the tweet. Welker is in.Would have been a big hit for NE if he was out.
Stripes Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 It's still good that Edelman is out. He's pretty much Welker Jr.
volcom69 Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 Dunlap out well that just sucks, i was hoping to see him get better in the rotation. Sims i also like him, but i guess they are going for more speed today. I thought Sims looked good in the preseason as the 3-4 DE.
cHaD711Johnson Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 Sims is a run stopper and the Pats are passing team. That was the .com reason for him being inactive.
NbleSavage Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 Sims is a run stopper and the Pats are passing team. That was the .com reason for him being inactive.This makes sense.
HoosierCat Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 Sims out also means we probably get to see Atkins go against starting-caliber players. Let's see if the kid can rack up a sack or two when it counts.
Stripes Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 The minutes are passing by so slowly.
HoosierCat Posted September 12, 2010 Report Posted September 12, 2010 The minutes are passing by so slowly. No sh*t. I keep looking at the clock and thinking, wasn't it that time ten minutes ago?
