Nick Lachey encourages Mike Brown to sell Cincinnati Bengals with new song
Nick Lachey, a well-known singer and TV personality, has taken a bold step in expressing his frustrations with the Cincinnati Bengals’ owner, Mike Brown. Lachey, a lifelong Bengals fan, released a new song titled “Sell ‘Em Mike Brown” on his YouTube channel. In this catchy tune, Lachey calls out Brown for the team’s constant shortcomings and questions his decision-making abilities, urging him to sell the team.
In the chorus of the song, Lachey belts out, “Sell ‘Em Mike Brown. Stop playing a clown, baby. Quit bringing my Bengals down.” It’s clear that Lachey has strong feelings about the current state of the team and believes that a change in ownership is necessary for the Bengals to succeed.
This is not the first time Lachey has publicly criticized Brown. Earlier this month, he took to social media to express his disappointment with Brown’s decision to retain head coach Zach Taylor and director of player personnel Duke Tobin for another season. Lachey called this move “a slap in the face to all Bengals fans” and emphasized the need for change and adaptation in order to improve the team’s performance.
The singer’s frustration with Brown stems from the Bengals’ lackluster record under his ownership. Since taking over the team in 1991 after his father’s passing, Brown has led the Bengals to miss the playoffs 26 times in 35 seasons. Despite a relatively successful season in 2021-22, where the Bengals made it to the Super Bowl, they ultimately fell short to the Los Angeles Rams.
Lachey’s criticisms extend beyond the team’s on-field performance. He believes that the ownership’s priorities are misplaced, focusing primarily on profit rather than the well-being of the fans and the city of Cincinnati. In his Instagram post, he accused the front office of making money at the expense of hardworking Cincinnatians, further highlighting his disillusionment with the current state of the Bengals under Brown’s leadership.
As a passionate Bengals fan, Lachey’s plea for Brown to sell the team reflects the sentiments of many supporters who are eager to see positive change within the organization. While it remains to be seen how Brown will respond to this public outcry, Lachey’s song serves as a poignant reminder of the frustrations shared by many Bengals fans who are longing for a brighter future for their beloved team.
