Onion NFL Preview

http://www.theonion.com/articles/onion-sports-2010-nfl-teambyteam-guide,18023/?slide=1

Cincinnati Bengals

• Strength:
In the past three years, their ability to convince NFL experts the team could make it to the Super Bowl has been staggering

• Weakness:
Terrell Owens wants to prove he can still play at a high level, but he wants to systematically destroy an entire football organization much, much more

• Intangibles: The combination of T.O. and Ochocinco could make the Bengals so annoying at the receiver position that other teams forfeit to avoid playing them

• Biggest Question: How good is Carson Palmer's psychiatrist?

The Onion was a lot funnier before it became big business.. wasn't it only last year that no one was picking us to do anything at all?... the truth is usually an important part of anything truely humerous..
I guess someone needs to remind the Onioneers of that....

That last part was amusing.. The rest, not so much.

Obviously? We're all Bengals fans.

Meh, I can enjoy a witty roasting of my favorite team, especially when the source is a comic outlet like The Onion (sports "journalists" aside). But I didn't find much worthy of a tickle except that last line.. (The annoying receivers causing forfeits was closest thing to funny about the Bengals).
