Boomer's lips to God's ears...yes indeed, Boomer speaks the truth. Boomer always has a lot to say and Bengals fans seem to get po'd at him for most of it, but I truly don't understand why. He's often (usually? sometimes?) right; plus, it's Boomer Esiason, for goodness' sake. When has the man ever, from the time he was drafted back in '84, not spoken his mind? We Bengals fans should be used to him by now, right????
Anyone gutsy enough to walk around in any sort of Bengals gear after the last 2 decades or so deserves a little respect or at least a little sympathy, right? I'm not much of a numbered jersey wearer myself--wore a borrowed Manning jersey to the Colts game last fall effectively bringing about the Colts' worst home loss of the Manning era. I had an old-style Bengals #14 as a youngster. This jersey was responsible for the disastrous 1978-1980 seasons, and yes it took me 3 full seasons to come to the conclusion that it was all my fault and that I should never, ever wear a Bengals jersey on gameday again.Bengals fans notoriously wore their jerseys at random times at Ohio State. I famously remember someone wearing a Carson Palmer Pro Bowl jersey on a Tuesday in the spring. (Seriously? Who buys a pro bowl jersey? Ever.) This is precisely the kind of thing I always hated about Cincinnati fans, so maybe their wallowing in self-pity will make them more tolerable.
Are you nuts? That may get me a ride on a fine NJ Transit bus. The armpit is the most expensive state ever. It's hovering around $8 for a darn pack of smokes (not that I smoke, just saying thats nuts). Crap houses go for like $300-400k.
Haha, but I never pay more than $50 for my jerseys, and this has been spread out over the last 8 or so years. I limit myself to one a year now![]()

Actually, I'm from a bit north of San Diego (as in SF Bay area), but I understand your confusion. I've seen Lubbock!
P.S. I aspire to be classy. But then I hear Groucho in my head and rethink it.

Seen Anchorman? :-P
I'm from Cleveland, anyway, and I'm moving to New Orleans for the next couple years in six weeks. Alas, packa will not sell his jersey collection to help bankroll my doctoral program at Tulane. Thankfully, they gave me a fellowship.
Okay, you're losing me here...

Nope. I accept no financial compensation for fantasy football unless I win a prize through the league results.
Besides, like I said, I got a fellowship, so hawking fantasy football players for cash and/or street-hooking will not be necessary this fall. Phew.
