To new readers at CincyJungle.com

In the past week, we've seen a flux of new users come to CincyJungle.com and wanted to personally welcome all of you. My name is Josh Kirkendall (hence my username) and I manage CincyJungle.com with several writers who assist in putting together a Bengals related site that's aimed at making us all informed, so our opinions are detailed, wide-ranging and vast with our biggest focus being community.

This site is designed for several purposes, which includes information gathering, analysis, and community. Most of us are Bengals fans, so we all have one thing in mind. We care about the team and we desperately want to win. We have FanPosts on the right, which is your forum and it works just like a discussion board. I've strongly encouraged that if an opinion is well written and argued, that it will be on the front page of the site. FanShots are for smaller items, like pictures, videos and interesting quotes.

Also, each story has a recommendation button. Make sure you click on that if you like a story. Not exactly sure what it does, so click on it anyway.

If you're a new member, make yourself known and if you're just observing, then we welcome you too. It's easy to create a membership and best of all, it's free, free, free. Anyway, welcome everyone.

Thanks!

Hi Josh (and team). Thanks for your warm welcome. I’ve been searching for a decent, informed and well-written Bengals blog for a while now. I live in England and have been a Bengals fan since 1986, and, as you can imagine, something like Cincyjungle is a godsend to someone who lives so far away. Thanks to my first ever fantasy league participation last year, I’m now really interested in stuff like free agency and the off-season coming and goings. Thanks again for putting the time and work in to bring us something so in-depth and enjoyable to read.

THis site is awsome and being a mile high it helps be connect with the rest of the poor lost souls who follow my beloved Bengals and despise the Brown$

Just like thesaddler

I too hail from England and started supporting the Bengals in the mid-80s, stumbling across NFL coverage on Armed Forces Network radio on an ancient stereo. At that time one of the four terrestrial tv channels started showing American Football and it garnered a cult following.

I believe that the Bengals have a large following in England, the Pats and Dolphins too as that was the first Superbowl any one remembers. However, I no longer live in England, having taken to the sunnier climes of Guatemala.

As an avid fan of fantasy sports and disappointed with the generally negative coverage the Bengals receive, I’ve been a reader of the Jungle for the past nine months or so off and on. I love the wealth of information, as something of a social media buff myself it’s been fascinating to watch it grow and long may it continue.
