NFL fans, can we please raise a toast to the poor, beleagered Cincinnati Bengals who have _finally_ managed to win a game? Granted President Bush was in attendance, so it may have been part of the Left Wing ConspiracyTM. 😉 Me, I still remember one year when they won three games, two against my beloved Steelers, so I figure they’ve got a chance of winning at least one more game.

Houston fans, my condolences.

CJ

Isn’t it great when the expansion team is the one that’s embarrassed to lose a particular game?
