Might sound crazy. but I can root for both Browns and Bengals. when they play I usually pull for whoever has the best chance to make the playoffs. It goes back to the late 90s when I was a kid an Cleveland didn't have a team for a few years after the Model move. then I got into watching Cincy

I understand that dynamic............especially for you young'ns.
I grew up in NE Ohio and was a Browns' fan (via my father, of course) from birth. I remember watching Jimmy Brown play in the late 50's on a small black and white screen.
My husband grew up in Dayton (he's old like me), as a Browns' fan, and thought the people who changed loyalties to the Bengals were kinda like traitors.
Even though there's nothing left of the old Browns, and the new Browns are pathetic, it's too much in my blood to give them up entirely.
But when it comes right down to it, it's those ugly uniforms that makes me dislike the Bengals.
Good luck to your team, but it's not looking so good right now.
(If it's any consolation, I hate the Ravens far more!)
:( Yes that was a frustrating game for Cincy, but Dalton is still a very young QB and it is a young team. They are making steps in the right direction I think. but...grrr
Anyways
I didn't even know it. the nurse told me and brought me a cupcake (store bought)..lol.. it has been 1 year today since I arrived here. I don't regret it. Even though im not feeling the greatest physically.. im doing better emotionally and anxiety wise.
Hopefully Washington will win today. They have an awesome QB
Yes... I am feeling better about life...I only wish I could see my wife and twins more. But it was really reassuring when she told me that this is the best place for me long term and it will not ruin our marriage...
anyways
One thing I love.. by luck..(they were remodeling parts of the building) I was able to end up in a nice private room here. My own bathroom which I rarely ever make it there in time to use is ok.. but having my own bathtub is awesome. The nurse gives me a bath every morning and she doesn't have to walk me down the hall to a bath that a bunch of other people use. and I definately wouldnt want a roommate in the room when its time for diaper change. I used to be ashamed of that but now I really appreciate a clean bottom...LOL
Too bad about the Bengals, they are young and seem to have a good future. Marvin Lewis seems like a good coach, I hope that he gets a chance to continue to build this team. Good to hear that you are dong better, hope that you enjoy it here!
