Bengals sign QB Doug Johnson

[andybren]

Mikey: "You sure 'bout this one, marv?"

...conversation continues and fades around corner...

....later, in the Hobson household...

[a glowing red phone blinks in the study, Hobs hurries to answer it]

Hobs: Yessir!

Marv: Take it easy, G-Dog, it's Marvin.

Hobs: (sighs in relief) Thank God it's you...

Marv: What is it? The Doug Johnson signing didn't work to placate the masses?

Hobs: No, it's worked too well! The posters at BengalsZone are falling all over themselves to get fancy new "DJ-to-PK CONNECTION" signatures designed.

Marv: That's great! Two days into the off-season and they're ready to buy replica jerseys for two players that won't even make the opening day roster!

Hobs: You don't understand...they don't even care about Henry or whatshisname....that other quarterback.

Marv: Carson?

Hobs: No, Krenzel. We're on the brink of losing our Ohio State fanbase. And with Henry out of the spotlight....

Marv: Our street cred is history. This is horrible.

Hobs: What are we going to do?

Marv: Desperate times call for desparate measures. It's time for the Wicky-Wacky Signal...
