Not so good I wouldn't use a high round selection on a CB, but still... Yeah it would be a big relief to me too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted April 17, 2023 Report Share Posted April 17, 2023 Doesn’t sound like Collins is in the house but Taylor told the media that his rehab has been progressing normally with no setbacks, so there’s that. He is still not expected to be ready by opening day, tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmyBengal Posted April 26, 2023 Report Share Posted April 26, 2023 Most guys that are 6’5 and 325 pounds take longer than average to come back from an ACL. Considering he injured his ACL on Christmas Eve, color me skeptical of seeing him in the lineup before the midpoint. If he does, I would be very happy. I don’t have the issue some may with Collins. He’s just hurt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted July 25, 2023 Report Share Posted July 25, 2023 Bunch of stadium and food service upgrades announced today. https://www.bengals.com/news/paycor-stadium-upgrades-concessions-the-jungle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted July 25, 2023 Report Share Posted July 25, 2023 Nothing says "upgrades" like increasing the likelihood of intoxicated fans. I do like the graphics though and think more should be done in that regard. Maybe they do this, maybe they don't, but I would like to see them put a package together that if you buy either season tickets or the multigame packages of tickets, you could get some kind of advanced ticket option for future concert events at Paul Brown Stadium. If they do this already, then disregard. I wasn't aware that you couldn't simply get on a waitlist for club level season tickets. You have to have season tickets typically starting in the uppers. After a few years, upgrade to the endzone, after a few years, upgrade to the sidelines in the lower bowl, after a few more years, maybe you get a chance at club level seats, maybe not. So "maybe" in 10 years you get the chance at those tickets. I just didn't know that's how they did that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMPHAR Posted July 25, 2023 Report Share Posted July 25, 2023 The overall stadium branding has improved ten-fold the past few years. Very nice. I do believe season ticket holders get advance buying opportunities on non-Bengal events. I can remember some offers from the past. I'm not sure that would include every concert coming.

HoosierCat Posted August 17, 2023 Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 More money for Joe: Donato’s named Bengals’ official pizza. https://www.franchising.com/news/20230817_donatos_named_official_pizza_of_the_cincinnati_bengals.html Quote Donatos Pizza, the fast-casual pizza franchise famous for its Edge to Edge® toppings – has partnered with the Cincinnati Bengals and is now recognized as the Official Pizza of the Cincinnati Bengals. This football season, the premium pizzas will be served to Who Dey Nation throughout 12 concession stands as well as club and suite locations at Paycor Stadium.

ArmyBengal Posted August 17, 2023 Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 Wow a slightly better version of the shit pizza they already serve at the stadium. Color me unimpressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMPHAR Posted August 17, 2023 Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 I think the official pizza has gone from LaRosa to Papa Johns to Donatos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

membengal Posted August 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 Unpopular opinion I guess but…I love donatos and miss it greatly here in maryland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted August 17, 2023 Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 I think Donato's is okay. It's at least my favorite style of pizza (thin crust, cut in squares), though I prefer Marion's. Closest they get to downtown is Mason. Definitely an improvement over the Papa Johns hockey pucks. And I think LaRosa's is terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 I don’t think it’s that I really hate almost any pizza, it’s more there are some I would prefer to eat more than others. My least favorite is probably Domino’s. I kind of cycle through all of them. I love Adriatico’s down by UC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 So years ago…back when I was Joiseycat, there was a place just down the street that had the best pie ever, thin crispy crust, greasy top, perfect folding slice, damn I miss it. My biggest regret moving back to the Midwest is that pizza. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COB Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 Moving my daughter into an apartment in Austin (grad school at Texas), just tonight we had Roppolo’s, this place just west of campus on Guadalupe Street. Really good, can recommend it if you’re ever down here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMPHAR Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 Pappa John's always feels like you need to drink a gallon of water afterward. Donatos is good. Its a great choice for pizza at a football game, IMO. Easy to handle on a 3rd down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 I will offer this up as well... If i'm a game and it's freezing damn cold, ANY hot pizza is welcomed. There are no favorites in that situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMPHAR Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 In addition to the practice bubble. The bengals have made significant investing in training rooms. Stuff have no idea what it means but stuff like Float tanks, cryo therapy, and bunch of other exercising stuff. This cam out in an interview with ZT.

HoosierCat Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 Do you need a house? Well, Fischer Homes is now the official homebuilder of the Cincinnati Bengals. Maybe they can give Joe a house or three in lieu of some signing bonus money? But wait! There's more! Because you can never have too many ways to get sh*tfaced drunk at an NFL game, Kickstand Cocktails has partnered with the Bengals to...well, see aforementioned "sh*tfaced." Choose between four flavors of "spicy vodka canned cocktail": Roasted Jalapeno Cucumber (mild), Charred Pineapple Poblano (medium), Smashed Raspberry Serrano (medium) and Torched Peach Chipotle (hot). I think I'd rather have bleach on the rocks, but hey, kids today, get off my lawn, where's the onion for my belt, etc. Anyhow, mo' money for Joe!

ArmyBengal Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 Seemingly I am aging at an accelerated rate these days despite having teenagers in the house. For every year that goes by, I feel I am aging five. I pretty much hate everyone and everything I see in the world today. Totally counterproductive to doing things which would lead to a happy life. Pretty much "Get off my lawn" x10... This week marks the true full on football season, so things are looking up: Sunday: Pro Football all day and night Monday: Monday Night Football Tuesday: Watch highlights / fantasy football Wednesday: Watch more highlights / fantasy football Thursday: Thursday Night Football Friday: High School Football Saturday: College Football all day and night Just reading that reduces the "Get off my lawn" effect by half. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted September 27, 2023 Report Share Posted September 27, 2023 Another in the continuing series on the future of Paycor as the 2026 lease expiration gets closer. https://www.wcpo.com/news/local-news/i-team/bengals-playing-for-more-than-just-a-win-when-a-team-does-well-its-easier-to-get-public-funding I am going to bet that at the end of the day, the "build a new facility" option is going to win.
