N/S Bengals message board about the Super Bowl is refreshing to read (reminds me of how WE felt) (1 Viewer)

[ndcc]

The talk is upbeat, emotional... and with a lot of humility. Gotta feel good for that fan base!

The last time the Bengals made the Super Bowl was the (1988) season that the 49'ers, Rams & Saints all tied with a 10-6 record. We were undefeated (4-0) vs. AFC, but only a mediocre 6-6 vs the NFC, and 3-3 within the (NFC West) division. Because of that, Old School WhoDats remember that the Saints were "odd man out" because of the tiebreaker, and the Forty-Whiners went on to win the Super Bowl!

Here's the link to the 1988 season (FINAL STANDINGS):

Anyway... it's a real treat to view the remarks that their fan base are making. WhoDey... all the way!

Bengals are like the sister team of the saints in so many ways. I am so happy for them.

I don't know a single person who wants the rams to win, which is funny because I have friends who are in L.A. and they said more people there want the Bengals to win than the rams.

Bengals fans deserve to see a title this year. It would be good for the league as well.

The Bengals probably would have had a title in their first SB if their star running back didn't get high on cocaine. Stanley Wilson was a cautionary tale.

We continue to look back at one of the best teams ever assembled in Cincinnati Bengals history. Unfortunately, part of the 1988 team's legacy has a very dark chapter with one of their players.

I want the Bengals to win because I like Joe and hate the Rams. But I will never be caught saying, "Who Dey".....

Good for them. Every fanbase should experience this at least once. The anticipation, the preparation, the excitement, the “whatchu grillin’ for OUR Super Bowl Sunday?, feeling.

Awesome.

I'd probably be pulling for the Bengals no matter who their opponent is (unless it was us, of course) just b/c they have never won a Super Bowl, but since it's the Rams, I am definitely 110% in the Bengals' camp. Geaux Bengals! Who dey!!!

Every fanbase....except... Atlanta. They should never feel the anticipation again, all six of them can pound sand.

Well, I mean I don’t think six is considered a fanbase so, yeah, you’re right.
BUT….

They’ve experienced the anticipation, the preparation, and the excitement - twice. And both times they’ve been utterly destroyed. And the second time, it was like Street Fighter Tiger Uppercut, Mortal Kombat Finish Them! typed destroyed. I’ll take that.
