I think I downloaded this from Go-Bengals years ago....seems appropriate to wash rinse and repeat....

I think it's still below France, just above the Mediterranean Sea. Just to the right of Portugal. Rain falling in the plain. All that stuff. Told to me by a friend.

Word on the street is Kenny Pickett looks TERRIBLE in camp. Some are trying to hide it but the eyes don’t lie. Zach Wilson not so good either.

The more I think about it the more an indefinite suspension makes sense. 1. 6 games is no punishment whatsoever. It will cost Watson almost nothing. The Browns have a soft first 6 games. This isn’t a punishment at all. 2. Watson has shown ZERO remorse. None. 6 games won’t change it. 3. Goodell is furious at the cute little fucking game the Browns played with Watson’s contract. The owners are furious with the idiotic 5 year guaranteed contract. Goodell works for the owners he is going to punish these asshats. 4. Watson fucked over the Texans. He signed a contract extension and never played 1 fucking down on it. Held them hostage because of these allegations. They couldn’t cut him, nobody would take him at the time and they had no choice but to pay him or get zero in return. That’s AFTER he got the signing bonus in 2020. 5. It’s a horrible look for the league. Watson makes the league look like shit and pays no price. Not gonna happen. Goodell doesn’t want the NFL to turn into the NBA where the best players do and go wherever they want. He is going to drop the hammer on him because that is what the owners want.

forgot to post once this beast made it home safely.

Go-bengals.com Stadium 🥷

kind hope they announce this before this weekend Ill be in Cincinnati this weekend to visit Onyx's grave and would love to be able to put a miniature white helmet on it

WOO HOO!!! My Bengals tix just got here. I get hard copies rather than the app stuff. Now I'm REALLY ready for some football.

I keep wanting to call him Kenny Stabler but in all honesty he seems like more of an Uncle Rico

They should have had Mike Ehrmantraut following him.

We just paid to protect Joe Burrow. That's going to have to continue during Burrow's career. He's 100 times more important than Bates, so his O-Linemen need to be paid. Just can't pay a Safety with one exceptional season out of four (and one exceptional post-season) Top-10 money, yet we offered Bates' Top-5 and he's turning it down. We have to move on.

Damn, just a bit too late for Go's autograph session.

2:17 in my brother and I are in the stands in our Covid seat location. Brother in white 33 me in black 64.

I think the torrent of news/updates is slowing. That should catch us up for now.

I have been told it is being called Pumpkin Stadium.

This one:

New mural downtown on Kitty's Sports Bar.

I'm going to need to see Mom's BFF before I can decide where to land on this

I think logically he should perform very well this year, for all the reasons you've listed above. I'm REALLY hoping your right in fact, because a Lombardi will more than erase his faults from last year. The problem is, pro football is wildly unpredictable for many reasons, not the least of which being injuries. The planets really lined up for this team last year resulting in a Super Bowl run, which is pretty bizarre considering how awful the pass protection was. The skill players made great plays on must have it downs. The defense made key stops and got turnovers with playoff games on the line. It was glorious for this franchise after such a postseason drought with so much heartache, but luck was with us for the most part too. Can't count on that, we need to be even better this upcoming year to get another shot at it. Hopefully Carman is a contributor to this. I know my next take here is pretty childish, but it's hard not to blame him for basically coming up one play short of an NFL championship. Him, Adeniji, and Prince. I know Carman is young, but a college graduate hired for millions to play in the NFL should be maniacally prepared to prove himself. Maybe there's something in his personal life that hampered that? Either way, winning cures all. Let's go Bengals! Let's go Carman!

Eh, a legitimate franchise QB *talent* with an unfortunate habit of taking his dick out in front of strangers. I can't imagine this was all a complete surprise to the Texans, but they took him anyway, and then it blew up in their faces. Pun intended. The fact they were able to get anything at all for him, let alone 3 first round picks, is kind of astounding. They've got ample opportunity to draft another QB and now he's someone else's problem.

Your number (3) is so important here, and no one seems to talk about it. Goodell works for the owners, and right now there are 31 owners who are absolutely livid at Jimmy Haslam. for guaranteeing every dollar of Watson's franchise QB contract. A long suspension would sort of put a huge asterisk over Watson's contract, the largest and easily the greatest in NFL history by far.

Lollll

Almost as embarrassing a stain as giving $250 mil to a serial sex offender amirite

Announcing the Dolphins will lose their first round pick the day after the Watson decision The Dolphins owner will be "suspended" (whatever the fuck that means when you own the team) for the exact same number of games as Watson. For maybe talking to Tom Brady when it wasn't his turn or possibly maybe throwing games. Same suspension as jacking off on unsuspecting women. 6 games. I'd say the NFL is the most corrupt governing body in pro sports but they're all kind of equally trash.

I bet Burfict is somewhere wishing he'd have jacked off in front of strangers instead of giving Antonio Brown an owie.

My favorite McKay quote was: REporter: "What do you think of the offensive line's execution?" McKay: "I'm in favor of it..."

Did he almost die?

Climate change...

That is so true, I had mine removed and the doctor said, there was nothing wrong with it. I was kind of pissed off in having it removed when he told me this until he said, you don’t need it anyways. I think it was the bad downtown street Korean food that caused my pain when I was in Korea and didn’t really need surgery. My stomach was hard as a rock at the time though and after I had surgery the pain was gone. So who knows. I recovered pretty quickly like the timeframes are showing and I was rather young like Burrow at the time. I am sure this type of operation is less complicated now, then when I had mine removed. He should be fine.

Joe Burrow does 4 hours of independent study AN HOUR I'd be all for throwing them back in whatever NFL Network meeting room they came from and nailing the door shut. TNF is dogshit.

I just watched that helmet video over my lunch break like I watch porn. With mouth agape and meat in my hand. My favorite stripe has always been the long one that wraps around the back of the ear hole. My second favorite stripe is the little 'U' shaped one on the back. Those are my 2 favorite stripes.

I couldn't appreciate those Oilers uniforms like I should have at the time, because of my dislike of the team. But looking back, they were among the best in league history. The Titans screwed it up in 1999 and then made it worse with the recent changes. If they don't want to be the Oilers, then fine. I get the need for a complete rebrand and something that Nashville could call its own, but they really could've used the same uniform and switched the oil derrick for the sword "T" and been great.

Seems this would be the easiest transition.

when andy was under center it could have been Charmin Super Soft field at Tampax Stadium.

I think Hurst is the sleeper this year. He's a rock solid pass catcher who's biggest downside, as far as I can tell, was ending up on teams with Mark Andrews and Kyle Pitts.

I wonder if they have Breakfast Tacos? Asking for a friend.

Just blow it up while you're at it

His departure is still kind of of puzzling, as the Bengals offered him the same amount of $. If it really was just because of chasing tail (and not also wanting to set up a post-playing broadcast career in NYC) then that's really sad. If about a tv career, I also think it's a miscalculation. As the Bengals lead the league probably in ex-player broadcasters (Boomer, Collinsworth, Hawkins, Pollack, Wilcotts etc). And as a multi-SB champ with Burrow, he would have been even more marketable, than flopping with the Jets.
