Bengals fan here, but I wont be at any (maybe 1, but doubt it) games this year due to 1. Money 2. Going to 9 OSU games so ill get my fill of travel on the weekends, and 3. Its great to watch games on Redzone or with Sunday Ticket. Bengals fans are really not that bad, though they are fairweather, but damn near every fanbase is fairweather, so who cares? It doesn't help when you have one of the worst owners in sports either. If people want to rip on Bengals fans then that's fine.

The NFL is televised/covered so amazingly with RedZone and 5-6 live games per week, there really isn't any reason to attend games unless you can afford it and are close to the stadium. Add to that, fantasy football has actually made it a turn-off for many people I know to go to games. For me, I'm almost 2 hours from Cincinnati. When I lived in Lexington, I was about 80 minutes. I still rarely attended games. I'd simply rather sit at home in-front of my 55-inch LED TV, watch RedZone, the Bengals game and follow fantasy football all day. That beats paying 200 bucks to attend an NFL game when you factor in gas, tickets, concessions, etc...

I live 15miles away and would still rather go to a sports bar or watch at home with friends. Guess I'm not a fan. There are only about 70k fans per team I suppose.

Looks like some of you guys are desperately looking for something to brag about since the browns sold out their home opener last week. It's a tough pill to swallow when the Browns beat you, right?jordo212000;902433 wrote:You're a little late to the party

Not surprised this went over your head. Since you went to Marietta, allow me to spell it out for you. I was referring to the Browns attendance vs bengals attendance.jordo212000;902550 wrote:wait when did this happen?

Can't make the home opener, some family members stepped up and are going in my stead. As one previously mentioned, I wish it weren't this way but I know many persons who have such disdain for the organization they either refuse to attend games while still holding tickets or go to games and boycott any outlet that Mike Brown stands to benefit from additionally (concessions, parking, etc.) Myself, I support the players as much as I can, but go out of my way not to give the impression I am happy with how things have gone under Mike Brown and Katie Blackburn's leadership.
As for the Browns fans trolling on this thread, let them sour. If I lived in/near/around Cleveland I would be a malcontent as well.

You weren't that clear in your first post, champ. Nice spin though.

Cool. You're happy winning the attendance battle in the stands, and I am fine with my team winning the actual game.Commander of Awesome;902556 wrote:Not surprised this went over your head.

That was rather weak. I know you can do better, and I'm being serious.

Seriously, though. If you're arguing over attendance numbers you're losing no matter which side of the argument you are on.

Yeah, I'm roasted because the Bengals fanbase is so pathetic that they are forced to find a delayed stream online due to being blacked out. You got me /sarcasm.jordo212000;903028 wrote:There is this thing called, the internet? I will find a feed. Boom roasted.
As a Bengals fan, you probably won't even bother looking for a feed unless you hear the Bengals are up by the 4th qtr. Boom roasted.
Also lol at you using an Office reference after your constant bitching of the show.
