xjjeep90 Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 After looking at other teams' sites over the past few weeks (looking at draft possibilites) I've noticed that the Bengals web site is out of date by several years. Just the overall arrangement of the articles (in verticle fasion), a better team store home page, better pictures, etc are needed to give it a more updated feel. Do you think they will do some revamping in the near future? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrishcovga Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 I asked the same question to Geoff Hobson last year. We do seem a little Atari 2600 when it comes to other teams' websites. Would like to see a draft section, Player/Fan interaction section, fan prizes .. and the list goes on and on that would put us equal to other teams' websites.

We do seem a little Atari 2600 when it comes to other teams' websites. If you want to see a good teams website, check out the St. Louis Rams site. That has it really goin' on. Bengals.com is relatively lame compared to it. In fact this site has it all over "Bengals.com" as far as layout and user friendliness. Jungle Noise!?! Puleeze!! Why bother posting at a site where they might add your comment in a few days, if that!! If it wasn't for Hobsons articles, I'd NEVER go there!!

Kirkendall Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 If it wasn't for Hobsons articles, I'd NEVER go there!!I think that's the only reason I'd go even if it was up to date was the articles. You can find a great assortment of pictures and multimedia on NFL.com for each game. Going through the team store is a bad idea anyway because they overprice everything. Plus, I like the low end type sites because it takes a split second to load as some sites take several seconds or more with all of that flashy blinking buttons crap. SHESH!

Bobcat Bengal Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 Definitely....Ill readily admit to that statment....I mean, this is the 'new era' right?

BengalszoneBilly Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 and I think they edit certain pieces....i remember i went on a tangent one week, and my s**t didnt get posted... I guarentee you they delete certain posts that they deem are somewhat offensive, or are anti-Bengals, or anti-Mike Brown. C'mon. Read that crap "Jungle Noise" and tell me it ain't been filtered by some fascist bastard.I too went off on Mike Brown and Dick LeBlow there last year. Major rant on the obvious ineptitude that was oh so present. It did not get posted. So I turned right around and wrote a lame type of ass kissin', "that's okay boy's, we'll get 'em next year" bulls**t e-mail, and they couldn't post that piece of sarcasmic crap fast enough.I haven't been back since.

jditty47 Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 The bengals site is the best in the nfl, wanna know why? Cuz it has articles every frickin day in the regular season, and almost every day in the off season. NO other nfl site has it. Yes it needs to be updated the format/layout but who cares, as long as it has up-to-date news, fogetaboutit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalszoneBilly Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 You're overall right. I was mainly bitchin' about the forum, or lack of one while EVERY OTHER TEAM IN THE LEAGUE HAS AT LEAST A DECENT ONE!As far as the general website content, it is on par with the rest of the league. It's just getting a little "long in the tooth", so to speak. Time for a makeover, and not one buy those queer guys either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we all still go there everyday knowing that we have some goodie Bengal information waiting for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimersfan88 Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 I'd like to see a link to go to with the history of the franchise. Something with some pictures, stories, old game scores, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something with some pictures, stories, old game scores, etc. Yea your right Reimer, that would be sweet. It would help me out a ton at least All of this searching the WWW for a single stat gets to me after a few hours when it just applies to one sentence!!! Serenity now!

Chad Johnson Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 If only there were an official forum. Jungle noise blows but Ill always post their. And I do love new stories about evry other day so overall i say its okay. And why dont they ever respond to emails? New format and a real forum and it would be one of the best!
