Legend has it that Mark Twain said that when the end of the world comes, he wanted to be in Cincinnati because we’re 20 years behind the time.

Online Media Daily sets the record straight:
[The Bengals] have become the first NFL team to launch a site where fans can post user-created videos.
The [team] will send out e-mail messages today to 40,000 fans asking for user-created videos. The best videos as voted by fans will also be shown on the scoreboard during home games this season at Paul Brown Stadium.
