USN Bengal Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 [img]http://slantmouth.com/articles/fearonomics/images/massengill.jpg[/img] It's totally comical the way everyone is reacting. I'm as disappointed as anyone, but you'd think that you'd all been sodomized by Mike Brown! No one here knows what happened, but by God, we will blame Mike Brown regardless of fact, because our vaginas hurt and we want to blow up at someone. He may very well be at fault, but you bunch of bleeding orifices are ridiculous. Damn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the same thing yesterday morning/early afternoon before the Rogers non-trade thing went down. To each his own, but I do feel sorry for all the miserable people on this board at times. Oh well, comes with the medium. I'm sure they are good people and are diehard fans, but I will admit I don't understand how miserable they can come across. As I said...... to each his own.

But word is the sticking point was an NFL interpretation of a $1 million roster bonus allocation due Rogers at 12:01 a.m. today. "Clubs discuss trades all the times that are not completed," Greg Aiello, NFL Senior Vice President of Public Relations, said today. "This is a club matter and we are not in a position to comment." Jack Brennan, the Bengals' PR director, said this morning that the Bengals never confirmed the trade, though it was widely wide reported in the media with other sources, namely the Lions and Rogers' agent, Kennard McGuire. The Bengals were going to give Detroit third- and fifth-round picks in April’s draft. In the meantime, with Rogers now a member of the Cleveland Browns, who gave the Lions their third-round 2008 pick and cornerback Leigh Bodden, the Bengals are still in search for help in their front seven.[/quote] but I guess nobody wants to put any stock in this... Why did the roster bonus only affect the Bengals and not the Browns? I guess that is what investigative minds want to know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win or lose, with Rogers or without, they still have a good time whether we are 10-6 or 6-10.

|SF2| Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 The truth is I's were not dotted and T's were not crossed. Our FO decided to go after a player in FA, had him in the net, and gosh darn it, the net had a hole in it. Meanwhile, our hated brother (same dad) landed the same fish in his boat. It is time to move on, I agree. So what now for our now very inexperienced front 7? We have taken 2 steps backwards today. We lost our best defensive player in Justin Smith and gained nothing. That is a sad statement by the way. Nobody left out there that is as good as Justin. The last thing I will say is thank god Justin Smith has class. Just imagine the things he could say once his deal is finalized with the 49ers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least he has something besides the ability to be a pass rusher which he was drafted so highly to do and never could. But wait, let me guess, now that he is surrounded by "true talent" on the fucking 49ers, he'll blossom into the guy we thought we had...right?

If we were screwed by the league office, we could appeal that too. If the Bengals FO screwed themselves, that's also worth knowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattyc Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 The ONLY thing that makes this hurt is that he to a division rival. If he went to St Louis or Indianapolis I wouldn't be that upset. Its a risky trade for whomever takes Rogers. I won't blame anybody til some semblance of truth appears. I agree though people's reactions over the last 24 hours have been WAY over the top. But its like this every year. 70% of all NFL fans are pissed that their team is not doing enough. Another 10% are pissed that their team overpaid for someone and the final 20% are drinking the kool-aid and living the dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go Tory Go! Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Well, if it makes any of you feel better... if you do a google search, one of the links about halfway down the page is to Rogers's yahoo player page, listed as "Shaun Rogers - Cincinnati Bengals," with the appropriate Bengals's graphics on the page as well. Enjoy it while it lasts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
