What a shitty first day of playoff games.

And the Bengals must be cursed.

IIRC they were very good in what... 2005? Primed to go to the SB. Then the Steelers knock Palmer out of the game with a torn ACL and the Steelers go on to win it all.

Now this year they're one of the best teams in the AFC. Lose their starting QB a few weeks before the post season and gonna lose to the Steelers again.

For it to happen against your hated rival... has to suck.

We call them the "Bungles" for good reason.

Yeah, but those things weren't their fault. They've been one of the best teams in football this year, and then two games or whatever before the playoffs they lose their QB who was having a career year. Just really bad luck.

Only thing that maybe wasn't just bad luck when Palmer blew his knee out was it looked halfway intentional by the Steeler lineman.

I'm talking nowadays.

Do Super Bowls won decades ago still warm your heart?

I have them all on DVD along with several other of the Cowboys biggest wins. I may have to consider watching them.

Its all I got now.

Roethlisberger hurt (hopefully serious) and the Bengals just scored a TD. Down 8 with 14 minutes left. Come on Bengals.

Ben's shoulder got smashed. Carted off. Wonder if he can play anymore.

But he is a drama queen about all his injuries, so he might be okay.

Bengals get the ball on the their 13 yard line. No way they drive into scoring range. Their offense is putrid this game. McCarron playing like shit.
