Excellent point, pally.

I grew up in southwestern Ohio a Cleveland Browns fan in the 50's/60's.  Actually skipped most of a Sunday basketball practice my senior year to watch the Browns destroy Baltimore in the NFL championship game.  When I got there the practice was almost over.  Everyone was shooting FT's and I casually joined at a side basket.  When I saw the coach coming over I thought I was done for.  After a sarcastic comment (he was good at that), he quietly asked me what the score was when I left.

When the Bengals came along it took me a year to come over from the dark side.  But once you put on those stripes you never look back.
