Just to give you an idea how pathetic things have gotten here your blog is the first time this week I have heard/seen it mentioned that it’s Steelers week, and it’s Friday! In a way I guess it makes sense as PBS will be impersonating Heinz Field West come Sunday.
Our only hope is 0-16 w/ the season ending w/ KC coming in here and kicking ass week 17. Sadly if Carson does get shutdown for the season Mikey will blame his injury for a disappointing season.
For perspective the last home game (non preseason or strike) I missed was 11/84 against the Falcons. At this point the KC game may end up being my last ever, depends if my 16 yr old wants another season of great tailgating followed by a lesson in not how to run a NFL team.
Keep up the revolution; at some point something has to change, hopefully while I’m still alive.

Robert, you are only too right--Mike Brown will use Carson's injury as the excuse for the whole rotten season. Your post actually has several good points, like most earlier posts on this site but unlike the posts that trash Pittsburgh the city and its people. That crap is typical stupid stereotyping and, as a native Cincinnatian, I think it just makes Cinci fans look like low lifes. I hope the Bengals roll over the Steelers, but the fact is that the Steelers for decades have been one of the best run franchises in professional sports with something we lack here--competent owners.

Robert is a WDR hero. Most of us were toddlers the last time you missed a game--you have given up too much to this franchise to have them put this kind of product on the field. And by "product" I mean dogshit. Thanks for joining the Revolution, Robert.

Robert... You are a true Bengal fan and in the mold of a great revolutionary. 1984?!? That is dedication. Thanks for joining the movement. It is fans like yourself in which this revolution was born.
