PrintWe've clearly hit our Chad Johnson quota for the week. I spent time arguing that Carson Palmer's points about Johnson, to the media, was being blown entirely out of proportion. Palmer spoke truth. The media, like the Senate, recognized it as war. It was going from informative, to gossip mongering. On Tuesday we wrote that Chad Johnson and head coach Marvin Lewis spoke. Baby steps. Progress. On Wednesday morning, we referenced an Eric Ghiaciuc quote that talked about distraction, clearly hinting at Johnson as one of those distractions.
Chad will definitely attend the team's mandatory minicamp on June 18, writes Joe Reedy.
“Of course, why not go and show off the product?” said Ochocinco of the upcoming minicamp. “Why not leave my coaches mouths wide open?”
“I’m sure all the people in Cincinnati think I’m really not doing that much but you’ll see the results with the work I’m putting in right now."

I just watched the Chad interview on NFL network, my fav quote
“Number 9, remember those days when we were young? And the night before Christmas, and you knew you had some good under the tree, and you couldnt wait to open it. Thats the feeling I want you to have with your new toy, your new 85. I’ll give you the remote control man cause which ever way you tell me to go. I’m gonna be like bing, bing, bing, bing.”
He seems actually excited to play for the Bengals. and thats the most exciting news this whole offseason to me
That's only slightly better....
…than the “I’m comin’ with every bit o’ Orange County that’s in me” quote from last year…before he went out there and stunk up the place.
The thing is…y’all remember him saying that, and afterwards, he said something like, “for those of you who don’t understand what I’m talking about, just look at any of the Miami Hurricanes championship teams from the 90s.”
Well…
A.) Chad…you might be from Miami, but you can’t claim the swagger of The U if you didn’t actually PLAY for The U!
B.) Chad…the Miami teams from the 90s were not championship teams…they were under NCAA sanctions at the time and they stunk!
Sorry to bludgeon a year-old quote, but I’m just ready to see him actually run crisp routes as well as he runs his mouth.

Echo that....
For an offense that was ranked LAST this past season, this is exciting. Not to be outdone by Dhani Jones, the Ocho takes up another sport to “improve” his game. Whatever. He’s ready to rock, and we need anything we can get.
3 yards and a pile of dust
We'll know soon enough
Chad’s either going to actually be ready to play and in top form, or, he will not.
Carson’s statements recently have shown the team isn’t going to tolerate antics or mediocrity from him this year. Chads onfield distractions directly benifit the offense by allowing the others to get open. But having Chad at the top of his game means the defense has to double cover him or risk a deep strike. That was non existany last season.
come here to enjoy more
I just saw a blog of this guy on ____- interracialsingleonline dot com -_ where many users are discussing seriouly about the game and the player. it must be very interesting…you may go to check some more details there…
He will be fit
Boxers are probably the most physically fit of all athletes, with only a few possible exceptions. Boxing training will toughen you up like no other workouts – especially with the top notch unit Chad is working with. Yea he still seems to be all about him but with, as far as I know, all of the other malcontents gone Chad will find himself on an island. Chad likes to be liked. I expect the close locker room to change him not the other way around. If we can come out of the block with 2-3 straight wins, which is doable, the confidence will rise and this team could get stronger every week as new players become more and more comfortable in their roles. If this happens we have a chance to do some big things. I would say out chances are about 1 in 3. Which is a big improvement. We probably won’t hit stride until next year after one more good draft.

Chin Penis (#9) better get his head out of his ass--85 is here to help you
I’m sure CP mouth-breathing off like a great beloved leader is very impressive to the true believers around here. Let’s see….mikeyboy franchised a caddish kicker instead of Housh, entrusted the Franchise’s glass chin to Kyle Cook and a lousy O-line and expects balls delivered under extreme duress to a combination of Jonah Henry, Coughy Caldwell, Jumpy Simpson and our new $30 million Stubby. OchoCinco is gonna be there to help you chinny, and he’s gonna be your best friend on 3rd and long.
