CincyInDC Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 The game will start at 2:30 or 3:30 AM Monday my time, so I'll get up early (like 6:00 AM) and watch from the beginning. Should be able to blow through commercials and some stupid commentary at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|High School Harry| Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 I can't imagine how sloppy drunk the Pittsburgh locals will be with an extra 3 hours of tailgate time. They will be in rare form when the Bengals blow them out with a half dozen picks and fumble recoveries. And the game will be over just in time for the new season premier of Walking Dead. Has the making of a fantastic Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I got used to watching recorded games instead of live it is hard for me to deal with all of those commercials. Cutting out commercials and halftime gives me an extra hour to do something else on Sunday. Nothing beats watching a game live with other fans, but there are no Bengal fans down here. Luckily I have some friends who get together for the big UT games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 I used to prefer 1pm starts, but our church is further away now and we barely get home in time for 1pm games. Especially if we stop to get lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tigre Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 AverageFan nationwide hasn't caught up with the real-time status of events yet. They are just barely out of summer, and only now beginning to pay attention to the NFL (kneeling, etc notwithstanding). AvgFan still wants to see the "elite teams"--and you-know-who fits this description of wants. CBS will hype it--angling heavily Black and Gold. The Bengals will simply be the opponent. Doubt much will be said like "comeback Stealers". AvgFan will tune in like Pavlov's Dog. And the NFL will deliver their usual assistance in providing CBS with what AvgFan is expecting to see--the "elite team" win against the no-name Milwaukee Bucks. And just in time for 60 Minutes and the gala Sunday evening programming. Set your watches to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthPaw Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 Of course they will hype Pittsburgh, they have been the more dominant team since.......Al of our lives. Not sure what the issue is. Again, I've said it so many times, if the Cincinnati Bengals....and their fans it's seems, want it to stop, them they have to put a stop to it on the field. Losing 7 out of last 8, including an absolute shit show in wild card game, is not going to get anyone to talk about you, but your die hard fans. The Bengals are the reason the Bengals aren't talked about more. Oh yeah, it couldn't have anything to do with the Bengals surging and the Stealers struggling along with their recent history against each other in while being in the same division. No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOF dan Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 Not to mention the now obligatory playoff meltdown / rematch angle. Honestly, Cleveland pregame talk show hosts asked the question "have the Bengals ever recovered from the playoff loss to the Stealers?" just a couple of weeks ago. But then again, if you're Cleveland, your used to epic meltdowns and lifelong angst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhfinks Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 Well Shit - Prime time - and nationwide - Whats our record after the Bi-week? and Prime time? Shit shit shit shit shit! Ok tantrum over - Go Bengals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostInDaJungle Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 That means it will be the national 4:25 game, so I'm thrilled. Even better, (depending on your level of Dalton hate) we didn't get flexed into Primetime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you can do a dunk and dash. Cool. Just make sure that if you are asked to hold one for a picture you don't spike the little nipper and do the Ickey shuffle.

Trio is meh, imho. Place always smells fishy which is understandable since fish is a specialty. I was there once and a blind guy walked in and said "Hello, ladies".

Champ Kind Posted October 17, 2017 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 I hope that in this "prime time" matchup Geno sacks Big Fat Ben 4 times in the 1st half, and we build a 17-0 lead so we can watch all the Yinzers tuck their tails and run back to their tailgates. And on the 1st series of the second half, Burfict de-cleats that little whiney ass bitch across the middle on the cleanest hit of his career. Then Dalton hits Kroft on consecutive drives for TD's and we forget the kid's name we drafted from Notre Dame. Is this too much to ask? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throw in a 97yd end around from Ross on a move in which he literally breaks mike mitchell's ankle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
