Presidents day is somewhat funny. Aside from taking a day out to honor some of our great forefathers that kicked off the "America is more badass than you" tour in the 18th century, many hard working, god-fearing and country-loving Americans have the day off. But many have to work on Presidents day too. And those people curse those that are able to have the day off. Not that Monday was a big deal, with the state of Ohio directly under heaven's aqueducts and all ... What? ... While many Americans

Bengals running back coach Jim Anderson has been on the payroll since1984. He's worked with five head coaches, worked with Ickey Woods, Harold Green, James Brooks, Corey Dillon, Rudi Johnson and Cedric Benson and coached in Super Bowl XXIII. Needless to say, he's going to be a big part of ushering the Bengals offense from the Bob Bratkowski era to the Jay Gruden era ... If he sounds like a throwback, he is. At 62, Anderson is the dean of NFL position coaches for length of service with his team

NFL Draft: Is Mallet a Mid-Round Possibility?

Carson Palmer's poorly timed trade demand could possibly really stick it to the Bengals. In a worst case scenario, the NFL and NFLPA don't agree on a new CBA before the March 4 deadline and the NFL goes into lockout mode, effectively killing free agency. Mike Brown decides not to trade Palmer and Palmer, staying true to his word, retires. Without a CBA, the Bengals can't pick up a new quarterback in free agency. They draft one and by the time the NFL and NFLPA come to an agreement, the NFL

I want to celebrate the names, the ridiculous and the sublime, that make baseball what it is. This is largely inspired by a Joe Posnanski post where he said that Wally Moon was the most 1950’s name ever. That sparked me to take on this new project ... Let’s go through each decade of Reds’ history, from 1890s through the 2000’s and select the greatest names. We will have three categories: Best Name, Most Cincinnati Name, and Most 1920’s Name. I will list the names and how they got on

"The Who Dey Perspective" (prepare to gag)

Published Feb. 21, 2011 at 6:31 a.m.

So, today I happened to stroll over to the "Mothership" and low and behold, what do I find?  "The Who Dey Perspective":  possibly the final act of desparation by the Bengals PR director, Jack Brennan, to ward off the inevitable public backlash against their recent demands for an additional $43M from Hamilton County to make repairs to Paul Brown Stadium, originally constructed for $455M - by Hamilton County, for the Cincinnati Bengals ... Before you click on that link, be advised it may cause

Even if you could sit around and detail possible trade scenarios, the Bengals are unable to move Carson Palmer until there's a solution between ownership and the players for a new Collective Bargaining Agreement. That's just fact ... No matter what you hear from other places, there is no trade in principle. There's no reason to believe a trade will happen soon and the Bengals front office is doing nothing about Carson Palmer's trade demands. And I mean, nothing ... Don't believe me. Then check

The Cincinnati Bengals released outside linebacker Rashad Jeanty a week before the regular season started in 2010 because he failed a physical. Jeanty spent the regular season out of football, recovering from a broken leg he suffered against the New York Jets in the Wild Card game. A couple of weeks ago, Jeanty began his road back into the NFL, working out with the Miami Dolphins, New York Jets and Seattle Seahawks ... On Sunday, he signed with the Philadelphia Eagles ... Jeanty's injury was one

Since the Cincinnati Bengals signed Jay Gruden as their new offensive coordinator, the team has made little noise. They still need to find a wide receivers coach to replace the departed Mike Sheppard, who took a job with the Jacksonville Jaguars as the quarterbacks coach. They may need to find a new assistant defensive backs coach after Louie Cioffi was announced by Arizona that he'd be the Cardinals new defensive backs coach. Whether they'll replace Cioffi is up in the air, considering that

Week In Review: King Believes Carson Palmer Stays, Debating Alternatives Between Kevin Kolb And Kyle Orton

As Jason pointed out earlier this week, Peter King thinks he thinks (that's not a typo) that Carson Palmer will remain with the Cincinnati Bengals in 2011. Why? Two reasons. One, Jay Gruden's new offense will convince Palmer that he be "great" and Marvin Lewis will make sure that neither Terrell Owens or Chad Ochocinco are on the team ... What King says, does make sense. For one, Bob Bratkowski's offense often had routes that took time to develop. With Gruden's West Coast style, Palmer will

On Friday it was learned that safety Chris Crocker was medically cleared after he injured his MCL against the Buffalo Bills last season. A player being medically cleared isn't something we'd make a big deal out of in February, with six months until training camp (or 16 years based on the rate that the NFL and NFLPA are progressing with a Collective Bargaining Agreement resolution) ... However, Crocker's medical clarence only promotes the team's desperate need to address the position in the
