Damn good game Cats. Should keep the fans coming back. Hope is still alive.
Here is possibly an unknown fact to some about the Bengals. In the Taylor years as coach (in 6th year now), the Bengals are 1-11 in the first two games of those seasons. That seems to tell us that coaches are not preparing the players enough in the preseason. Of course, in Burrows 4 seasons with the Bengals he has played in only one set of preseason games (2021). In 2021, they have the only game won in the 1-11 record and that was against Minnesota.Good morning folks. Another Monday to survive.
Bizarre weekend of sports. The Bengals and the Cats both managed to lose by one point. I wish Kentucky had thrown that pass that reeled in an interference call on 4th Down. Both outcomes might have been reversed. Nothing else to do but move on. No fan of "moral victories" teaching us anything.
Back to work. Hope Monday is a good day for you all.
They enter every season unprepared and must be the least disciplined team in the NFL...I'd love to write them off once and for all. But I'd be haunted by the ghosts of Greg Cook and Paul Brown because when I was a ten year old boy I vowed if Cincy got an NFL team I'd always be faithful.Here is possibly an unknown fact to some about the Bengals.

Kind of like me with the St Louis Cardinals. Their fundamentals are crap the last several years. Jim Edmunds called them out on TV for poor fundamentals and too much sabermetrics the other night. The next game he made kind of an offhand comment that he didn't know if he would be back next year. Wondering if his comment upset the front office?They enter every season unprepared and must be the least disciplined team in the NFL...I'd love to write them off once and for all.

I was already a Reds fan and in 68 I was 1 1 years old when the Bengals started their first season. My fan ship got stronger after they drafted Kenny Anderson and to this day, he still remains my favorite Bengals player. I don't think people realize just how good he really was. If he had more support around him back then, he would have had a Super Bowl or three and a few records set as well imo.They enter every season unprepared and must be the least disciplined team in the NFL...I'd love to write them off once and for all.

I grew up a Browns fan as their games were shown on Cincy TV. I was still Browns fan went I left for UK. Bengals didn't start till I was a junior. Them we went to MA till '72. When I got back to Cincy area, it felt real strange that people were Bengals not Browns fans as I was still a Brownie. I very gradually shifted my support & only when Browns moved to Baltimore did I fully change. But even then, and now, I'm only a mild/fair weather Bengals fan. Never got the initial jolt.I was already a Reds fan and in 68 I was 1 1 years old when the Bengals started their first season.

Dry as can be here, Md. No change expected for over a week unless that Carolina storm gives a shower or two tonight. Temps near 90.Good morning folks. Cloudy and muggy in the east. Our cooler days may be over for a couple weeks.
Running a bit late this morning but our crunch of getting the Trump - Harris interviews done and edited and the pages designed is passed, so it’s okay.
Thanks for those thoughts, VHC. That wedge on the Mall where the Journalists Memorial is going is not far from my offices. A nice spot if families want a place to remember. More than 20 men and a couple women I knew and worked closely with never came home from their last assignment.Now, that’s over a long period of time, from Bosnia and Somalia in the early 1990s to Iraq and Afghanistan through 2006, and places in between like Kosovo and Sierra Leone.. So it doesn’t compare to the constant losses of a combat unit. I used to say a prayer for them over at the Newseum’s Memorial but that closed. So I’m looking forward to the new Memorial opening.
Heading to Kentucky at the end of the week to check in on dad. Hoping for good weather for the drive.
Greg Cook, wow. He was a star in the making till the arm injury. Like Couch.They enter every season unprepared and must be the least disciplined team in the NFL...I'd love to write them off once and for all.

good luck.Good morning on this hump day. It is partly cloudy 66.4°F, it is supposed to get to 84° and a 5% chance of rain.
@AustinTXCat that breakfast has variety. Is the dark circular food a sausage? What kind of beans?
Went to the doctor over a skin condition that started in January after I had Covid 19 in December. The doctor would not say that they are connected. We did a blood drawing and he suggested that I would probably be put on some very strong steroids if the blood test backs up his diagnosis.
You all have a good day.
