As a Cincinnatian, nobody likes the primetime Steelers/Bengals games.
It's always the Steelers getting wrecked, then turning around and trying to injure Bengals players for life, catching up, causing the Bengals players to try to injure the Steelers players for life, then Steelers winning.
And they always pick the absolute worst ref they can.
There is about one quarter worth of good time in those games, and it's only the first. It's always a dirty game, it's always depressing, and the NFL loves it because they can just collect on all the fines that they know will happen every year.
edit: Steelers fans tend to like it after they win, but even still it's gotta suck to cheer on Shazier trying to paralyze people (that was karma, unfortunately) then watch as your own guys get their ankles twisted.
I think this post sums up pretty well why nobody likes Bengals fans
I don't follow the logic. Or do you not understand the meaning of the word "unfortunately"?
I should be fair, it doesn't necessarily apply to you
But Bengals fans always tend to take the "You made us do it" mentality when their players act like thugs
Which isn't to absolve Pittsburgh of thuggery, certainly not
But it's not always as much of a "The other team started it" case as they'd often like you to believe ---
