Apathetic

I wish I cared more. I wish I thought it would make a difference whether or not Marvin Lewis stuck around as the Cincinnati Bengals head coach. I wish I could say I was mad, or sad or disappointed about the decision to keep a coach that has won as many playoff games in the last eight years as Dick Cheney.

But I'm not.

And the reason why I'm not is because I have lost nearly all of my faith in an organization that refuses to learn from its mistakes and seems to have little desire to win. I'm apathetic because part of me believes that it doesn't matter who is coaching the Bengals. As long as Mike Brown is the owner, general manager and the mascot of the team, they will keep on doing what they do best: losing.

I'm not sure what is more sad. That the Bengals are even in this kind of crazy situation at all, or that Cincinnati fans will hop back on the bandwagon by the time the team reports to training camp.
