It takes more than a friendly face and bullshit propaganda to rectify the horror that's happened under this pathetic POS called POTUS.
May Biden and his cohorts rot in hell soon.
I generally don't give much thought to your contributions in this area of the forum, mostly because it's painfully obvious that you are profoundly stupid when it comes to politics. You are also a bloodthirsty little shit, too, as evidenced by your comments at the beginning of October.
Saying inane things does not really add to the conversation, it just demonstrates that you are too lazy to actually RTFA, you nascent fascist.

I'm not buying it. The Bengals, under their current management, including their business philosophy and practices, are a competitive team. If one doesn't like that, okay. Speaking for myself, I actually like the fiscal prudence of the Bengals. Always have, even when they sucked donkey balls. Now that they have got some wise football minds in the house, I'm absolutely content to allow these guys to steer their ship without any back-biting from me. I'm enjoying the ride. I encourage you to do the same.

With respect, BJ…that is bollocks. Whoever is the “highest paid WR in NFL history” means zero to the place where it matters: on the field. Uno might be the most productive WR in NFL history (and that would be important) but he is just one guy, and he can’t do it alone.
The bollocks part is the constant siren song of “no money”. They have it, they just don’t want to put it into other talents towards actually really competing for championships. They prefer—and always have—to “live by the draft”. They are perpetually stuck in “building” mode.
What? Are you living in the 1990s? One series away from winning the Super Bowl and one series away from returning to the Super Bowl? And definitely a contender this year.
It's okay to not like the business model or practices, but stop saying silly things. The team is competitive and doing fine. And they are not bankrupt, like some of you jokers would do if you were running the show.

In related news, Nick Saban says that "only pussies drink water during practice in late August."

Foghat had better tunes than “Slow Ride”.
“Drivin’ Wheel” and “Fool for the City” come to mind.
Saw them quite a few times back in those roaring ‘70’s
Saw Foghat at the RKO Albee in 73/74. Great venue, also saw Kansas touring their first album there around the same time.
I like Slow Ride, not may rock bands playing slide in those days. It's those Savoy Brown roots!

That's been the case for anything Enquirer related for a long, long time.
Cincinnati Enquirer
4-4-24
Read M. Anweep
In a possibly controversial move that will affect the entire sports world, Tee Higgins, after chugging eight beers in a sports bar while watching March Madness, told his agent to explore his returning to college to play four years of Hoops with the UConn Huskies. Rumor has it he wants to play for both the Men's and the Women's teams utilizing the special NCAA clause of "If it brings in more money, then that's a good thing!" As for Higgins, he thinks he can get a decent NIL deal. When asked to offer more detail while barside this past weekend, Higgin's said "I can fly, I can sky, I can hit a bull eye! Gimme another Corona."
Upon hearing this rumor, the UConn coaches reacted. Geno Auriemma said, " I hope he isn't injury-prone. We can use all the help we can get." Dan Hurley chewed his gum furiously and said, "Hell, Yeah!" And then he exploded.

Bengals should only trade Tee if, and only if, they are this >< close to signing a free agent or two and need the cap space. Otherwise, keep him and pay him the tag money. He's got more value than mere draft picks.
I really want to see Tee, Chase, Gesicki, Hudson and one of the other receivers on the field at the same time. How do you defend against that?

"They've Gotta Beat Us."
What did the team learn last year? That they can win without Burrow. More important, they learned to do a few different things in order to win sans Burrow. Some of that stuff will show up as the next part of Burrow's game and the evolution of the offense. And they'll do it without compromising the stuff that Burrow likes to do best--which means we'll still see plenty of shotgun, 4 and 5 wide, etc... . So, they got Moss because he can block and run from the shotgun. They got Gesicki who is Boyd's replacement, imo. They got a tackle who will let Burrow be more comfortable in the pocket and have more time to do his magic. This off-season is about becoming more flexible on offense, imo, and they have done a pretty good job of it --on paper.
Not bad moves on the defensive side of the ball, either. So, Fuck Cleveland, Pittsburgh and Baltimore--they've got to beat us.

Picture this, Bengals coming out of the huddle:
Joe in shotgun. Chase and Higgins; Gesicki in the slot; Hudson doing the Hudson-y tight end thing; Sample blocking w/ no one in backfield, or no Sample and Moss in the backfield.
Bet we see this a fair bit next year.

Haven't seen any remarks on this aspect; wondering what others think. IMO, one of the problems with the Bengals offense the past few years is that it seems predictable at times. By that I mean defenses see certain formations and personnel changes and pretty much can suss things out pre-snap. Do these two offensive player additions address this tendency? Does it allow the team to mask their intent better with their play calls? And lastly, does this have value when making these free agent decisions?

As far as Biden being in cognitive decline, frankly they both are. I would say we deserve better but "the price of apathy towards public affairs is to be ruled by evil men." and we have far too many who have checked out of the process.
I don't like his stance on Israel any more than I like the President's before him. And I think the issues with Russia are incredibly complex as well.
What I will say as someone who expected nothing of Biden and thought we would get another Neo-Libera (and he is a neoliberal) l who would not address any of the root causes that led to Trump in the first place is that there are some things I am surprised by. Especially as it relates to investments we are making, but even more so some of the anti-trust stuff they have been doing.
Of course they are.
Biden held it together for the most part. Bet he had to practice a lot to get the low-key Max Headroom without sunglasses effect.. And GOP Stepford Wife couldn't make up her mind whether she was channeling Margaret Thatcher or Barbie. I found both of the to be insincere. As instances of statecraft, neither met the bar.
I like that Biden gave a shout out to the UAW. That's about it. Maybe a few of the other palliative economic measures. But this was a campaign speech, not a State of the Union, so IO take most of the rhetoric with a grain of salt. Make it happen and stop making these endless promises that are recirculated every 4 years.
The sad thing tonight was what both of them agreed upon: crazy endorsement's of the Blob's foreign policy. Gotta be fair, both parties are killing machines, about 500,000 casualties in Ukraine and a hell of a lot more than the 30,000 cited tonight in Gaza. Probably multiples of that number.

Like everything else in this rentier's economy, the motivation is to stick one's hand into another's pocket as deeply as possible. On the other hand, I pay nuthin'. If it isn't on antenna, then Dan Hoard and Dave Lapham are my friends.
