Welcome SB Nation's Newest University of Cincinnati Bearcats Blog

by Josh Kirkendall on Sep 16, 2010 9:56 AM EDT

I disrupt your regularly scheduled posting of Bengals obessionism (my newest awesome word) for this brief promotion. Cincinnati is a wonderful city. A great sports town. With the Cincinnati Reds and the Cincinnati Bengals, we're often consumed with great sports discussion, especially amongst the Cincinnati-based sites Red Reporter and Cincy Jungle.

We also have, for your football alternatives, the Cincinnati Bearcats, who generated plenty of buzz in the city during the Brian Kelly regime. Hopefully the Butch Jones regime is as effective, but we're in wait-and-see mode as it is. Anyway, along with Red Reporter and Cincy Jungle serving your local sports obsessions, SB Nation is proud to announce that we finally have a Bearcats blog.

If you're a Bearcats fan, please head over to Down the Drive and welcome Matt Opper to the team. Of course, if you're not a Bearcats fan and rather cheer for the Buckeyes, then let me take this time to also point you towards Along the Olentangy. After that, let me ask why you can't be fans of both teams. It's not a terrible thing to support your Ohio (not Cleveland) teams.

cool

I didn’t know there where any of you guys. I am an OSU fan who never rooted for or against UC. Then i went to the UC vs. Pitt night game where they clinched the Orange Bowl and I began to root for UC also.

then the OSU bashing, buckeye state t-shirts and radio commercials kind of turned me off to UC.

RE:

Yea, I just don’t understand why people can’t root for both. I mean, it’s not like they’re a rivalry today, and really, UC nor tOSU get in each other’s way during the season or post season. So why not root for both?

I have a bUCkeye state t-shirt, I think they're great.

I’ve also always been an Ohio State fan. The radio commercials weren’t on UC, they were on WLW.

UC Fan, OSU Student

I root for both, but I’ll always be a UC fan first. They don’t play each other often, and the only time you have to pick a side is when they do.

I also love how everyone in Cincinnati thinks the same way. It’s okay to support other Ohio (not Cleveland) teams. That has always been my view. Support every Ohio team not in Cleveland.

I'm a Buckeye fan that also roots for UC

But when UC ever gets to play tOSU, well then….GO BUCKS!! The heart is scarlet and the passion is gray.

UC Alum - OSU Family

I’m a fan of both teams. I graduated from UC and my father and both brothers went to OSU. Hating Meat-Chicken is in my DNA. How do you keep Ohio clean? Throw your trash in Michigan.
