How about them Bengals...

I've been to two casino parties that involved the Steelers. Against Seattle, the Steeler fans were the majority and for the most part behaved pretty well. A few got obnoxious towards the end- a mixture of booze and victory.
The second game was in Laughlin and with Arizona in the game, Steeler fans were a distinct minority. Several were belligerent from the getgo and ended up getting removed. Each table had buckets of beer as part of the setup and at halftime, a dozen or so Steeler fans formed an impromptu conga line snaking in and out of table using the buckets as drums. First minute was amusing, carrying on for most of halftime wasn't.
Worst fans I've been to a party with were Saints fans.
Best fan behavior I've seen is the two Giants- Pats games. Last years SB was wierd because so many Pats fans were snowed in in New England.

AAAAACCK!! WTH did you do that to me JM!> I think I'm blind

I've been to NFL football games in Indy, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, San Diego, Cleveland, Chicago, St. Louis, Houston and Nashville. Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Chicago stand out for the high volume of rude fans and the stadium security's lack of interest in stopping said terrible behavior. San Diego fans didn't have enough interest in the game to bother being rude. Houston and Nashville stand out for the volume of nice and friendly fans. The Indy fans are generally gracious to visiting fans, and security will toss the few who aren't...........which is like.

John, some idiot named Porter should not have been on the field and the hit on Bernard should have been flagged.

The hit on Bernard shouldve been a flag. While Porter probably shouldnt have been on the field, Jones shoved a ref and thats a huge no no, flag everytime on that. Porter knew exactly what he was doing by jawing with the guys, he was king of trash talk at one time,but Jones lost his cool,got a flag and helped seal the Bengals fate.

Even if I wasnt a Pitt fan, I would have no sympathy whatsoever that Cinci. lost the game, they deserved to lose.

I didnt notice during the game but I saw video today of Berficts sack that knocked Ben out and its really obvious where Berfeict drewhis leg back and rammed his knee into Bens shoulder. I used to think Suh was the dirtiest player in the game, Berfict eclipses him. Hard to beleive he only got a three game suspension and 50K fine.

It is time for Marvin Lewis to go! Pretty good coach but has no control of his team. Not to mention he is now 0-7 in playoff games. He will land another NFL job but the Bengals need to start anew with someone. The players having little discipline also leads to crowds becoming more rowdy. And you have some of the best "thugs" in Cinncy, both on the field and off.

The Bengals should stop worrying about things that they can't control, and should start worrying about things that they can control. A good starting point would be the dirty players and raining raining flags.

I'd have called off-setting penalties on Jones and the Pittsburgh coach. The coach should not have even been on the field. A horrible way to end a playoff game.

Interesting pic, adds a new twist on Cinci. bitching about coaches on the field.



EDIT: OOPS, fixed

Cinci was bitching that refs were on the field? Huh?
