Jason Posted January 26, 2022 Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 Have you cried tears of joy for any of the playoff wins yet? If not, will you if they win the Super Bowl? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tigre Posted January 26, 2022 Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 Different sort of question, eh? Dunno. I did have some mist in the eyes at the end of the first playoff game, but not flowing tears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_B Posted January 26, 2022 Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 Ugly cry after asking Onyx for that 1st playoff win, after processing that it happened the next day. Also teared up at this video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
membengal Posted January 26, 2022 Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 Yes. Twice already. Unashamedly. At PBS at game when Pratt made the play and I realized what was about to happen and again last week a bit as McPherson' kick sailed through.

Also teared up at this video Yes I shed a few tears. Not sure they are tears of joy though, more just emotional outburst. After the initial go crazy jump up and down moment, then to see all of the fans celebrating, and the long suffering we have been through the emotions just take over. That stadium was awesome to see all of the fans celebrating like crazy after Playoff P`s interception. Same with this video, I can`t watch it even now without getting emotional and a little teary eyed. We have been through a lot with this team and those who have bled Black & Orange through thick and thin for a lot of years are probably going to shed a few tears.

UncleEarl Posted January 26, 2022 Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 I gradually get so wound up during these close games that when they win it's just a relief when it's over. Took me hours and several whiskeys to chill out Saturday. I think if the Bengals won this weekend or in the Super Bowl and it was out of hand at the end I may get misty. Hope to find out.

I wish mine was gradual, I am wound up from the kickoff. I try to remember it`s a long game but doesn`t help much. And same here when it is over it is just a relief to be able to settle down.

Griever Posted January 26, 2022 Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 Not yet, but possibly if they reach the Super Bowl. If they win the SB? I'll cry like a little bitch, no shame either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted January 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 I was excited for both wins but haven’t cried. Yet. I think in part because I’ve seen it before (other than on the road). But if they win the Super Bowl I think there’s a good chance I will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tibor75 Posted January 26, 2022 Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 Not tears, but after I stopped cheering after Pratt's INT, there was an odd sensation that I felt, like Holy shit! they actually did it. And a feeling of bliss and relief. No matter happens from here on out, if they are able to win it all with Burrow at some point, it's going to be hard to top that feeling. Seeing some of those young people celebrating and I think you have no idea what 30 years of misery feels like. I'm so glad I was there. Some are able to take it in stride and wait for next year. Some can't handle it and stop being fans. Others create Sewer Brewer awards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esjbh2 Posted January 26, 2022 Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 Definitely emotional after both playoff wins...not crying/blubbering per se I guess, but there were tears...I told my wife it was just "allergies", but she knew better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jungletiger Posted January 26, 2022 Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 I'm reserving MY tears for a Super Bowl win. Before then, the only tears I am concerned with are our opps to stay hydrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kochman Posted January 27, 2022 Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 Yea I teared up both wins, I will be like a baby if we win the next 2. This whole season has been emotional for me. My side kick while watching games {my dog Bubba} passed away last Feb. Week 1 was extra tough. The last 19 years he was always by my side watching Bengals games. He is in Heaven cheering on his Bengals. RIP Bubba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tibor75 Posted January 27, 2022 Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 I was a Bengals fan long before I ever knew what "Script Ohio" or "The Horseshoe" meant. But it's as if I've repressed that for the last several decades as following the Bengals after September is more depressing than anything else. And by coincidence Ohio State started becoming an annual national contender in 1993, one year after I started attending tOSU, and a few seasons after the "glory" years of Boomer and Wyche. But this is me now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spotto Posted January 27, 2022 Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 I've told my kids I'll cry for a day of we reach the Superbowl and a week if we win it. Secretly I got misty after both playoff wins, but not sure if it's happiness or relief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
