Helps spend within our means during the year, and then this is like an end of the year bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took some creative writing for that letter when you don't have your #1 RB under contract and not sure your QB will be back. Of course, it is only March. I am sure I will be back on the bandwagon come August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smizno Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 I have a $500 car with 240,000 miles on it that I will sell for $7,000. That's tax and title included.

Your piece of shit car is just that, a piece of shit car. There is no comparison. Some people actually enjoy going to games win or lose. I know I do. Sure winning is more fun. But you have no way of really knowing before you buy the tickets. And winning is just part of the experience. I enjoy the total experience. We get that you don't. We get that your fandom and more importantly, your money has to be validated with wins. Don't talk down to others because they're not like you though.

Just curious... Do you guys not believe in bad investments? If you wouldn't put your money into a proven failing stock/product then why would you buy tickets?

Sure I hope they win every game, I was born in Cincy and odds are will die in Cincy. I love it here! However, the Bengals are not my life as it seems they are to several of you. Call it a fair weather fan if you will but really I call it a Realist. As far as the tailgating thing, I agree, it is awesome. Grilling out...Beers...Chics...It's a blast! I have actually, on several occassions, just went down for the tailgating and left even after offered a free ticket. So yeah, I do practice what i preach. Sometimes I question myself and I'm sure you guys question me as well as to why the F do I even come to this board. I love the Bengals but hate the organization (Mike Brown).

[/quote] you seem to be stupid enough to think there is some capital return on a winning team vs a losing one.. you get the same thing, 10 live nfl games. nfl games are fun. i will probably go to some broncos games when the bengals arent playing cause its fun as hell to go to nfl games...hanging out with family and friends and such... no one cares what you love or hate. football is awesome. tickets range from 60-85 at PBS. factor in license revenue on a very high end.. lets say $100 per ticket sold per year revenue.. which is high.. thats $6.5 mil a game.. and $65mil a year.. that covers maybe HALF of the players salaries....let alone coaches, staff, marketing, advertising, etc.. the shared revenue makes the ticket money seems silly in comparison... acting like buying tickets or not buying tickets is some monumental stand in either direction is fucking stupid... no one cares if you go to games or not, and no one cares AT ALL what you think about them going to games.. nfl football is fucking sweet.... get the stick out of your ass or rumble will be calling me begging me to let you back on the forums...

[/quote] when most of a persons posts are negative, is it really a stretch to assume they don't enjoy watching the team? here's two flaws in your argument. [quote name='Smizno' timestamp='1299773819' post='976339'] [b]Do you guys not believe in bad investments?[/b] [/quote] I pay money expecting to enjoy a sunday of live football and I get that. If I'm getting what I expect it's not a bad investment. It's definitely more fun when they win, but I have fun either way. What is a bad investment is people who put any time/bitching/money into efforts to get MB to change. it's his team and it's going to be run his way. All those people who donate to the revolution are the ones throwing their money away. [quote name='Smizno' timestamp='1299773819' post='976339'] [b]why come on here and bitch year after year if you do nothing but contribute your money to see a shit product.[/b] [/quote] everyone bitches at times, especially after/during a tough loss, but the ones who bitch the loudest year after year are those who don't invest any money into the team anyway. at this point I'd say almost everyone still buying tickets is doing so because they enjoy going to games. If not, I agree with you that they're dumb for investing their money into something they don't enjoy. why does it bother you that people spend money to go to games?

AGAIN.... [/quote] I aint begged you, just gave you some cheese!!! but on a serious note, I'm not going to say people suck by going to the game and buying season tickets. Everyone has a choice, and I made mine and that is not to renew with the Bengals! I'd rather watch the games from my couch or a buddies place a sports bar. Just not at the stadium. I may go to a game once in a while but that's about it for me. However, tailgating is the bomb and I enjoy that alot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
