See available tickets for Bengals v Bears on Oct 25
The Chicago Bears make a visit to Paul Brown Stadium on October 25. There’s a little bit more interest than usual in this game as far as ticket sales go as the teams are from the same general region of the country and there’s a mix of the Bears fan base in what I consider Bengals territory. The Bears are always one of those teams that thinks they’re more important than they really are. They’re still bragging about that Super Bowl they won almost 25 years ago. If that championship was a dog it would be long dead by now.
The Bengals may have failed to knock a ball down with triple coverage on a receiver and given up a 87-yard pass play for the game-winning touchdown, but the Choke of the Week still has to go to the Buffalo Bills, who blew an 11-point lead with less than 3 minutes left in the game against the Patriots. The Bengals lost because they were unlucky; the Bills lost because they were stupid. After giving up a touchdown, their return man decided to run back a kick instead of just kneeling on it in the end zone. Apparently nobody told him that the desperate Patriots would be trying to strip the ball from him, and when he coughed it up he robbed his team of a chance to burn some precious time off the clock and probably at least 2 of the Patriots time outs.
OchoCinco has warned the NFL that he’s found a loophole in their “no Twitter” policy and plans to send out messages this Sunday. He’ll get fined if he tweets within 90 minutes of kickoff through the end of media interviews after the game. I suspect he’s going to be relaying messages to a friend, who is going to post the tweets for him from OchoCinco’s personal Twitter account. He’ll probably have his friend videotape this process to prove #85 was the one twittering during the game. I suspect the NFL will smirk at this charade but probably fine him anyway.
See available Bengals vs. Texans tickets
The Bengals take on the Houston Texans on October 18 at Paul Brown Stadium. This game will have the normal 1:00 pm start time. Tickets for this game are probably going to be among the cheapest you’ll find all year on the resale market. I’ve seen some floating around for under $40 a seat, which is a good $10-$20 less than the next week’s game against the Bears.
