I don't know fans of every team, but I don't recall any team in baseball losing their ACE in the first inning of the playoffs. I don't recall any team in football losing their All-Pro quarterback on the first play of the playoffs. I don't recall another college basketball team that was ranked #1 in the country lose the best player in the country in the last game before the NCAA tournament started. Cincinnati has had all of those things happen in the last 13 years. I really don't think this is some "pity party" as much as it just hard truth. Cincinnati sports have had some insanely bad luck in the last 15 years.
