"Hear that Bengal growling - mean and an-ga-ree..."

I love the Cincinnati Bengals. From the bottom of my heart I do. Even though they break my heart year after year, I love them. I absolutely loathe Mike Brown, but I digress.

Yesterday, my Bengals (yes, the are, in fact, my Bengals - I own them. Maybe you didn't know that) beat the Steelers. They capped off a poor first half, and a so-so game overall, with one of the best drives I've ever watched them execute (minus spiking the ball on first down with :42 seconds left on the clock). 2 4th-down conversions and a last-minute touchdown. It was wonderful to watch. And kudos, Marvin, for growing some balls and going for it with that punt fake. Sure, it didn't work out, but you tried; with your history here, that's what counts.

Sure, the Bengals played less than "great" football. Regardless, thank you, Bengals, for that final drive on Sunday. The fact that it resulted in you beating the Steelers made it even sweeter.
