Everybody Loves Ken Griffey Again
Remember back when Ken Griffey Jr. was considered moody?

Bengal Arrested ... Blah Blah Blah
I would've gotten to this sooner, but I thought it was probably a good idea to wait a few hours, see if any other Bengals got arrested, and then combine them into one post. Alas, they put together an unprecedented 12-hour streak of good behavior....

From Bengals Linebacker To 15-Year-Old Boy
With all the rigmarole surrounding today's Cincinnati Bengals, it's vital to remember that Bengals of the past weren't necessarily princes either. Or, more to the point, their wives are still out there, causing some trouble, sleeping with 15-year-olds. (Via Pro Football Talk.)...
Chris Henry's Scheduling Conflict
The Sports Oasis brings up an excellent point regarding the suspension of Bengals wide receiver Chris Henry: How much money he will lose will depend entirely on when the Bengals' bye week is....

That's Not Quite What Pete Said, Actually
With all the hullabaloo around Pete Rose's "admission" yesterday that he "bet on the Reds every night" — a story so overblown that even Katie Couric was talking about it, chatting with beer pong specialist Armen Keteyian — Keith Olbermann, who did the Rose interview along with Dan Patrick on ESPN Ra...

Bearcats Football Trying Out The Eight-Man Weave

Bengal Watch
I hope you enjoyed the 48-hour period in which a "FREE CHRIS HENRY" t-shirt was appropriate. Save them, though, you never know when they'll be relevant again. The "troubled" wide receiver was released from prison on Saturday morning after a two-day stretch, slid out a side entrance, and hopped in a ...
This Brings The Total Amount Of Bengals Jail Time To ... Two Days!

Man, The Cops Just Won't Leave Those Bengals Alone
You know, honestly, we almost feel bad bringing this up, because this is the type of thing Bad Media People do: They see an athlete do something "bad," even an athlete who, like in this case, they'd never heard of beforehand, and just draw large-scale conclusions based on sketchy facts and uninforme...
