Ocho Cinco Causing a Stir
Apparently, Cincinnati’s favorite showman is at it again. Chad Johnson was asked by a Miami newspaper about his feelings for a potential trade to the Miami Dolphins. Johnson’s response was less than desirable for most Bengals fans
“Hey, that would be cool. Where’s (Bill) Parcells at?” Johnson asked. “I need to win now. I’ve done a lot of things, I’ve broken a lot of records here, I got the yards, I’ve been to the Pro Bowl, and I’m kind of fed up with the same thing every year.”
If Johnson is fed up with the same thing every year, he should imagine how the fans feel. Why is it that no professional athlete is ever able to put themselves in their fans shoes? You think you’re sick of losing, we’re sick of watching a very talented team underperform for the second straight year, then have one of it’s star players complain about losing, as if he had nothing to do with it.
Why can’t these athletes ever realize that whining about wanting out rarely, if ever endears you to fans? You’re paid tens of millions of dollars, win or lose. It doesn’t sit right for me to hear Chad talk about how instead of working extra hard, becoming a real team leader, and turning this thing around, he just wants out.
And by the way CJ, exactly how close do you think the Miami Dolphins are to fielding a playoff team?

I would love to see Ocho on the opposite side of D-BO!
December 28th, 2007 at 11:15 amSend him to Philadelphia. Fans here would love him.

Isn’t one mouthy wide receiver enough for you guys. He’d be Terrell Owens part deux
December 28th, 2007 at 12:14 pmocho cinco would look sweet in midnight green…what are the chances he actually gets traded though?
December 28th, 2007 at 5:52 pmHey, No. 85 will be available with Eddie Drummond hitting the road. Interesting…
December 28th, 2007 at 7:08 pmAnd you hate Terrell Owens? Wow.
December 28th, 2007 at 8:36 pm"what are the chances he actually gets traded though?"
I’d say they’re actually pretty good. He’s never had a great relationship with Marvin, if the Bengals could get a top notch defensive player or two, I could see it happening
December 28th, 2007 at 10:33 pmhe should go to dallas we need another great reciever. . . and he should contact me
December 29th, 2007 at 11:56 amI really like chad he has done alot for cincinnati he does bust his ass and you got to love I’m a die hard dallas fan but somehow #85 has won me over he’s awsome. . . .
December 29th, 2007 at 12:03 pmCharlotte, I’m a big Ocho fan myself, but if he’s started crying about how he wants out, then show him the door. Of course, get something of value for him in return. I don’t want to see him traded for a 5th round pick or anything
December 29th, 2007 at 4:24 pmHey TO was loved in Philadelphia, until he started throwing McNabb under the bus, told his coaches not to speak to him, and claimed he needed more money to feed his family.Before all that garbage started he was the most popular athlete in Philadelphia.

And you want the possibility of going through that again
January 3rd, 2008 at 9:34 amChad Johnson/Ray Lewis are good pals ;) And he wants to win NOW, maybe like with a veteran team a year away from a chad johnson short of a super bowl…hmmmm.. that will have a fresh GENIUS coordinator… plus he could dance and have all the antics he wanted we encourage that sort of thing
January 3rd, 2008 at 10:05 pmBaltimore would need to get a QB before Chad agreed to go there. You’re more than a wide receiver away from the super bowl.
