I have heard the Bengals owner was cheap. Giving players used jockstraps?

" Welcome to the team. Here's your jock strap from the dude we cut to make room for you to join us. " This type of stuff belongs in the Major League movie.
 
I'm sorry, but I'm not buying it. I think TJ is full of ****.
 
Theres a bag of dicks joke in there somewhere.... too lazy to think of one

coach put one aside

because he thought he could tell by looking at the jock strap that the head was too big?

well, take it for what its worth, but it has been corroborated by other former bengals' players.

If true, then it is beyond ridiculous. Maybe it was a horrible joke? I just honestly can't believe it's true, but maybe I'm naive.

Full of **** from used jockstraps I'm sure.

Bengals equipment manager: *throws used jock straps in middle of the room*
Tj whoseyourmama: what are these?!
Bengals equipment manager: used jock straps. We can't afford new ones.
Tj whoseyourmama: You expect me to wear this?!
Bengals equipment manager: Well we are Bengals. Look at it as earning your stripes
 
Paul Brown supporters.

A work friend of mine is from Cincinnati.** He's a big Red's fan and a big Bengals fan.* When I asked him, how come the Bengals sign the troubled players, his response was classic.** Because Paul Brown knows he can play them less.

Bengals Equipment Manager: "Okay, everybody gets new jockstraps today."
Players: "YAY!!!"
Bengals Equipment Manager: "15 you switch with 82, 35 you switch with 32, 14 you switch with 22...."
 
TJ is NOT full of **** here...

The Brown family has been notoriously cheap for decades. This isn't the only incident.

The Bengals used to have a pay-for vending machine in the locker room
The Bengals used to have the players provide their own towels for showering, etc
The Bengals used to send their players off campus for lunch during training camp and regular season (no training table)

The list goes on...these were all things that Marvin Lewis had to change when he arrived in Cincinnati...hence my blog entry called "Marvin's uphill climb"

There is a steeler who tells a similar story the first year Noll was in town on an NFL films show. I think it was Andy Russell.
