SPRINGFIELD, Oh - Nuclear power plant technician and Bengal's fan Homer Simpson has owned Bengal's season tickets since Kenny Anderson was throwing to Isaac Curtis.

"I have been a Bengals fan for as long as I can remember. When I was little, Dad would round me and my brother Herb up, drive down to ol' Riverfront to tailgate by 8 am. He was usually smashed by 11 am, and branding all of us with the grill tongs by then. I suppose, looking back on it now, it was a strange thing for a grown man to do to his children, but that was Dad."

It was that type of team spirit that led Simpson to spontaneously tattoo "Go Bengals" on his stomach after Stanford Jennings 93-yd kickoff return for a touchdown in the third quarter of Super Bowl XXIII.

"Looking back at the 90's, that was probably a mistake," he said.

Recently, irate over the tattoo, and while reminiscing about the Ickey Shuffle, Simpson made up his mind to have his own fun at the No Fun League's expense. Subversively at first, Simpson coached football's brightest stars in the most obnoxious, offensive play celebrations since The Dirty Bird.

Last week, the gig was up, as Simpson's identity was revealed on national sports show Jock Center, and the NFL came knocking. This exchange was caught on home video and given exclusively to The Dealer!

After meeting with the NFL and explaining his life as a Bengal's fan, the NFL pardoned Homer. He also removed the tattoo.
