Tuesday Trenches: It’s all gravy

I refused to try biscuits and gravy when I was a kid. I thought it looked gross, and I equated anything gravy to Turkey gravy, which I didn’t (and still don’t) like. Despite my dad trying to get me to try biscuits and gravy every time we took a morning fishing trip, I treated the stuff like poison.

It wasn’t until I was in my early 20s that I finally tried it, and of course, it was delicious. Now I also understand the term “it’s all gravy.” When I think of the Cincinnati Bengals, which I always do, and I think about biscuits and gravy, which I’m thinking of right now because I’m hungry, I see some similarities in how the Bengals have taken their offseason approach.
