About Tom »

Hi how are you my name is Tom and I am a Bengals Fanatic. I have been a fan of the Bengals every since I can remember. I live in Cincinnati and attend Reds, Bengals and Bearcat games on a regular basis. I came to BleacherReport to write articles because I want to read/write articles from a fans perspective. I figured I would write what I want to read as a fan. Also I have read articles on here that are as good or better than anything out there. I am a father of a 5 year old girl also name Tomi, she just started T-Ball this year and is hitting monster shots already. ;)--

Chad Ochocinco has brought fan interaction to a whole new level on Twitter...

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/254798-chad-ochocinco-brings-fan-interaction-to-a-whole-new-level-on-twitter

I think its about time for someone to have taken a positive stance on the issue.

Would love to get your thoughts if you get the chance.

The Bengals must perform well in a strong AFC North division if they have any shot at making the playoffs next season. Hope you enjoy!
