You're right. The Leaves. And that live version is not very good. There were a lot of California bands that were big locally with little following elsewhere, unfortunately in many cases, with one word names and easy to confuse. Leaves, Seeds...Love etc... saw them both (as well as the early Doors) out there a lifetime ago. Leaves/Seeds ended their set by pulling their shaggy wigs off and showing they were not scruffy Beatles clones after all. BTW... if you or anyone else on here has Spectrum pay per view movies platform, they have a documentary on Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones that is hands down one of the best I have seen of the bands and period. Well worth the $6 or so. Far better than the pillow fights being called playoff games. I have not seen one team the full strength Bengals could not beat handily.

"Hey. Joe, were ya gonna go with that gun in your hand?" ~ Jimi Hendrix and others (the Seeds have a nice cut)

What are two things the Chiefs have that the Bengals don't? Taylor Swift and a running back. told to me by a friend...

https://www.cincyjungle.com/2024/1/11/24033488/nfl-mock-draft-2024-espn-bengals-georgia-bulldogs 👆🏽from the same article speculating Mims... "If Tee Higgins ends up signing elsewhere, watch for a receiver here.”

Discussed by spicoli and others earlier re Mims... https://www.cincyjungle.com/2024/1/11/24033488/nfl-mock-draft-2024-espn-bengals-georgia-bulldogs "Mims comes with questions; he has made nine starts in his career and missed six games in 2023 after undergoing TightRope ankle surgery." (whatever that is) I wonder if this would be enough to push him into the second round? That would be sweet. D line animal in round one, this guy in round two. ✅ Lack of Experience ✅ Injury History ✅ Lots of Upside and Po-ten-tial Yep, this guy had "Bengals" written all over him.

or wide receiver

Billy Price did on his french fries.

I think we are traveling to Pittsburgh next season which counts as a third world country.

https://www.cincyjungle.com/2024/1/11/24033117/joe-mixon-contract-bengals-2024-nfl-season Will Joe Mixon be with the Bengals for the 2024 NFL season? Another possibility is a change at the running back position. Joe Mixon, who will be 28 in July, had a bounce-back year in 2023. After only gaining 814 yards on the ground in 2022, he averaged four yards per carry, scored nine rushing touchdowns, and gained 1,034 yards on the ground this season, adding 376 receiving yards and three receiving touchdowns. Once Joe Burrow went down with a wrist injury, the Bengals shifted focus and began to lean on the running game when they could, which helped the team go on a three-game winning streak that kept them in the playoff hunt all the way through Week 17. Mixon restructured his contract after 2022, taking a pay cut. The Bengals will owe Mixon a roster bonus of $3 million on March 16th, just four days after the new league year begins, and it’s fully guaranteed. So this means that if the Bengals decide to pair Chase Brown with a running back other than Mixon, that decision will come soon. It’s not really right to say the Bengals are cheap anymore. Maybe once they were, but not now. What I will say is they’re smart with their money. They know how to spend it correctly. I won’t weigh in right now on whether or not Mixon should be on the roster, but I will say if he’s on the roster on March 17, he’ll be on the team in September, barring some sort of injury. ::::::::::::::: My Vote... He'll be back but shouldn't be. Besides, $3 Million here... $3 Million there... it all adds up

I have my ticket stub framed along with the game before that (I think that was where the Bill faked injury to slow down the hurry up) as well as the Super Bowl.

Black Thursday? https://www.yahoo.com/sports/bill-belichick-england-121215841.html Bill Belichick out in New England The Bill Belichick era is over in New England. Belichick and the Patriots have mutually agreed to part ways, according to multiple reports. It ends a 24-year run as head coach of the Patriots that saw New England win six Super Bowls, an unprecedented level of success.

Seeing a lot of the media mock drafts have us getting Mims. Good indicator it won't happen. I guess I would be OK with it... IPIT... In Pumpkin I Trust... and Bowers won't be there.

Delayed LOL... took a minute.

Boyd and Reader have both said they would like to be back. I am very OK with both returning. Now do they want to come back enough to sign deals that are not ball busters for the franchise?

Doubt if Carman and Smith are here next year.

don't they pick 18th, not 17th?

I agree about Williams and Evans being gone. I think if Clyde Edwards-Hilaire is cut and becomes a free agent he will be a Bengal before the end to the day. Not sure of his injury status but looked like he became Kansas City's Chris Brown.

Yeah, right. Just saying this draft has them picking 17 and Seattle, not Jacksonville at 16.

is their draft order and teams correct?

I'm OK with this even without trading up Seattle taking Newton right before us took some temptation out of the pick. If both had been there.... dunno what I would have done. Probably Newton. And, thank heavens, they did not go wide receiver. Bowers went way early. No surprise.

Agree and Joe went even further, as if it was needed, to show what a quality guy and orange and black bleeding Bengal he is, when he was thinking about Tee when he did his own contract negotiations. Totally unselfish. Tee will be here next year but I have doubts about the year after. And I will absolutely hate that. BTW... #5 Higgins jerseys on sale in the pro shop... not a good sign. The ball is in Tee's court but his balls are in his agent's hands. Would love to see Tee set that pimp straight on who works for whom and get something done to keep him where he is loved and respected rather than starting from scratch with some scrubs.

He can't block for Joe, either. He got 100+ yards yesterday playing against people who may not even be on that team next year. Or the NFL. The Bengals are not going to get any better by staying the same and Mixon is not going to get any better getting a year older. But you're right. He'll be back.

Joe will be back. Joe isn't the solution.
