    On a completely different note for the Central Ohio peeps,  “Good Morning America” tomorrow morning is broadcasting live from The Pub in Gahanna, which is the long time meeting place for The Columbus Bengals Nation. If you can’t be there to get on TV, at least you can see one of the most rabid fanbases in the nation. Le Tigre and Sox can attest to that.

    It will air at 8:40am this morning, my sources on the ground at the Pub in Gahanna tell me.

    The “sources” you know quite well. 😃 Look for them!

    Quite the sum..

    Isn't 170mil of it for appearances and 

    all revenues off his merchandise?

    Still a ton of money for the Great One..

     

    I believe, for these new Saudi League signees, it’s straight money to him. There is also payoffs from PSG for the transfer amounts…but most of it is salary. 
     

    Renaldo makes €600 million—but I know a lot of that is market sales

    Actually, the highest paid footballer in the world is: 

     

    1. Faiq Bolkiah | $20 billion

    Faiq Bolkiah is a Bruneian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Chonburi F.C. in Thailand and the Brunei national team. Bolkiah is the richest footballer in the world, with an estimated net worth of $20 billion. He has been capped by the Brunei national team since 2014 and has captained the team since 2018. He is the Prince of Brunei. Bolkiah’s father is Jefri Bolkiah, the Prince of Brunei, and his uncle is Hassanal Bolkiah, the Sultan of Brunei.

    Does anyone live in the Columbus area? Wondering what kind of coverage they have for Bengals games, particularly when the Browns are playing in the same slot. My mother lives there and I can use her spectrum cable account (father lives in cincy but cut the cord!). 
     

    I used to use nfl gamepass with a vpn but they switched to DAZN which has been an unmitigated disaster (won’t work, won’t let me sign in to cancel or talk to anyone). 

    It generally follows the Cleveland Football Team, if truth be known. Columbus is and always has been North Shore-driven.

     

    However, if each are in the same slot--and no other network can take one (Fox/CBS/etc)--then they have mostly been alternating them as the primary telecast. No big deal--plenty of bars and restaurants in the area which will have either or both on regardless of what is shown on the telly.  

  15. General board thoughts on embedding x's (tweets), video, etc.

    All of the tweets are appreciated and I say this as a chronic twitter checker. 

     

    I think this forum is the best place on the entire internet to stay up to date on anything Bengals. I'm glad to do my part in that as well. If someone doesn't like it, fuck em, they don't have to be here.

    Heck BJ...I don't know what I would do without your annual man-crush draft pick overload. 😄

     

    It makes the entire draft!

    He's talking about organizations like the Cardinals that are a complete dumpster fire, which makes complete sense. Now that players like Caleb can get paid millions from NIL deals they are getting less pressure from family members, like Caleb's dad, to go pro. In past years guys might have been heavily pressured by "loved ones" to go make some money when they could have benefited from another year or two of college sports.  

     

     

    Today’s “dumpster fire” may be tomorrow’s “rising franchise”. Just never know. 
     

    Unless some good team has acquired the top pick…any Bottom-5 team is there for a reason—and not always QB caused. Would any of these suit his fancy? 
     

    I have always been in favor of a kid going the whole way through the college football experience before venturing into the morass of the NFL. Maybe it is one year closer to the career death age 30 (sarc), but real maturity comes with age for the most part. 

  20. Week 1 - Browns(stains) - News and Observations

    Times change…younger “fans” replace older ones. “Loyalty” can be fleeting—especially in recent times. 
     

    I can remember Riverfront having a long streak of sellouts, over quite a few years. This was whether the team was competitive or crap. Didn’t see that post 2000. 
     

    And is “loyalty” based on ticket sales, eyeballs on TV, or gear sales? Or all of the three? Seems like a drive-by poll of some sort.
