so i was over on espn.com doing the sportsnation poll and came across the question will the bengals make the playoffs. Like all of us i said Yes, expecting the results to yield an overwhelming no. To my dismay, the majority was voted yes by a 53 to 47 percent margin

What was even more shocking however were the states that said yes. To even further dismay one of the handful of states that had the majority say no, was Ohio. Now i am from Indiana but have to admit i am shocked that the state of Ohio doesn't believe. However, every western state and the majority of the southern states think the Bengals will make the playoffs. So my question becomes, Is America falling in love with this young energetic team? In the past we were the laughable convicts, the bungle, go on and on, but now we are being rooted for by what some would call, non- Bengals fans. I do not care about media coverage as i feel like our team feeds off disrespect, but it sure is nice knowing that America might just love our Bengals! WHO DEY!
