What to do with our free time?

Hello Fellow Bloggers, as i sit here writing a football blog at the end of June, I realize that real football fans are very single minded.  We eat, breathe and sleep football.  If you are like me, (and I honestly hope you're not)  your break from work during the middle of the day is to go onto ESPN.com to see if The Ocho has made any further Super Bowl predictions.  This somewhat sad existence is replicated by true fans across the league and is made worse by the fact that between OTA's and training camp, their is essentially nothing going on.  Football fans are in some strange stage of limbo while the NFL goes into hibernation.  Every fan copes with this down time differently and fills in the gaps.  For example, we all know that during this time of year Patriots fans burn incense and candles to a likeness of Tom Brady's butt stashed away in a closet or attic somewhere.  Lions fans spend a lot of time throwing garbage at Matt Millen's old house (so do Vikings fans in the form of Daunte Culpepper). And Steelers fans mostly stay at home because Troy Palamalu  wanders Pittsburgh nailing random pedestrians as they cross the street.

So I was wondering what you, the true Bengals fan, do during the offseason?  Also, may I suggest throwing out a few suggestions as to what other team's fans are doing this time of year.

Regardless of what you're doing right now, I know for sure we are all doing one thing... ROOTIN' for Dem Bengals!  Who dey baby?

good idea

I like that, it might actually slow the guy down for .000008 seconds. Looking back on the posted list, I noticed that I have a lot of looking backward and feeling sorry for ourselves kinda things. I think we should have a few forward thinking ideas as well. So how about these

Encourage Andre Smith to sign quickly by building his self esteem.. ex. say “Hey man, have you been working out, you look good in that tank top” or giving him part of Munoz’ Zebra

Strategize awesome cheers for the Bengals, win or lose…

Growing manly beards to show solidarity with Palmer…

etc. etc.
