And this Pet Peeve goes to?!

Here are some of my biggest pet peeves! Feel free to add your own!

My biggest pet would be HInes Ward, I don't understand how this guy gets so open all the time. If it is 3rd down and less than 5 yards to go, u know its going to him. I know he may be the most physical WR in the nfl today but I would really enjoy someone laying him out (hint hint) and breaking his jaw (hint hint), so he can not have that stupid smile on his face for a couple of months. Matter of fact.... the whole team is one big a$$ pet peeve.

My next pet peeve goes to the New England Patriots offense. It may just be me, but doesn't anyone else notice that they do a screen about every other play? Its either to the RB or WR and no one seems to stop it. I know they may have some elite players on offense but most of welkers catches are short yardage and screens. To add one more thing, Tom Brady has one of the whiniest voices, but he sure does love his goat!

This is not that big of a pet peeve, but it still kind of annoys me. Why don't the bengals wear all black for every home game. I think it gives them that fierce look and it just looks better too!

And finally, my last pet peeve goes out to Paul Brown Stadium. Wtf is up with them green seats? i never really understood why the would make them green... I was thinking they could make them all oragne with some of them black. So when you get an over head view of the stadium it would look like the bengals stripes.

Cool idea for the seats at PBS.

Great idea about the seats being stripes.

Too bad that sounds expensive and MB will shoot it down like a 25% tip for dinner.

Green seats have a nice contrast for all of the fans wearing orange, but it was probably done because MB got a better deal on Green.

The shovel pass

I wish I had the arm to throw something at the coaches box every damn time I see that play.

It's still a good season if we go 2-14 and beat the Steelers twice.

At least the seats arent aren't

brown (as in the browns), purple (as in the Ravens) or black/red/blue/yellow/gray (like the steelers). Green if preferable to any of these colors, but you’re right, orange and black would nice.

This is our year!

Seats

Not to be finnicky…but the Browns seats aren’t brownm they’re orange. The Steelers seats aren’t all those colors, they’re yellow.

The Bengals should have orange seats….but not black. Can you imagine how hot black seats would be in September and October? I’m sure green is the “universal” color and was the cheaper option that a “custom” color like orange.

Though that theory wouldn’’t likely make sense…since we all footed the the bill, not Mike Brown. I’m sure he wasn’t trying to save construction dollars. Nevermind.

I was just referring to team colors, not stadium seat colors, but point taken. I was just saying that as long as we don’t put in seats that are the colors of the Browns, Ravens or Steelers then I’ll be fine.

This is our year!

The Bengal stripe idea for the seats sounds good in theory… but there is a problem. When would you actually see the stripes? Only when the seats are empty! Which means it wouldn’t (OK, HOPEFULLY wouldn’t) do any good on game day.

My pet peeve is people egregiously misusing a word’s meaning and then point to “truth by majority vote” (wikipedia) as “proof” they aren’t misusing the word.

That is true....

it would be expensive to do but I think it would be worth it. You wouldn’t see it for the most part on game days but when you see the stadium filling up, you would be able to see it. I think it would give more identity to the “jungle” theme!

My pet peave is that the Bengals aren’t jumping on the retro uni trend. How sweet would they look in some old school uni’s and lettered helmets?

I couldn't pass this up

These would be some sweet throwback uni’s

This is our year!

Those are pretty sweet

the only problem is they look like the browns uni’s a little bit…..

They were meant to look like the Browns uni's

PB specifically used similar colors and uniform schemes to piss off Modell.

And P.S. I play the game. Unless you have NFL experience, your experience likely doesn’t exceed mine.

Orange Uni's

I really love the Orange uni’s though. I’d like to see those every home game.

This is our year!

Helmet

I always thought that the inverted helmet looked cool. Black helmet with orange stripes.

I love a good rant!

My pet peeve is Sam Cassel’s big head. Man that dude has got a big alien head.

My second pet peeve is not allowing team mascots to play in the game. I think the Bengals could have a good three or four more wins a year with trained tiger running around the field. (imagine the damage that could do to Hines Ward)
