August 14, 200817 yr LOL that is hilarious. Ok Ocho Cinco. What a loser, thats all I can say. What a disgrace. A loser? A disgrace??? Who the F are you to call a multi millionaire and one of the most successful people in the world at his job a loser and a disgrace?? Who is he hurting if he changes his name? I think its great, and good for him for exploiting the system and screwing the dictatorship that is the NFL. You know the NFL is freaking out right now too, because if there is one thing they hate - it's individualism (esp. from black athletes). And who the F are you to rip somebody for expressing an opinion? Technically, that's what you are doing now. Actually, he was defending me. "Technically" yes he is ripping him of his expression but about me... which these boards arent quite made for.
August 14, 200817 yr I dont think you quite "asked" me. You more stated in a pretty rude manner that I have absolutely no right to say that, mainly because he is rich and successful? Yes. He is a loser. Thats a disgrace to his family and to himself. So because he is a multi millionaire I am not allowed to think that is disgraceful to his family and himself? No, you're not allowed to think it's disgraceful to his family and himself because you are not his family or Chad Johnson. You don't get to judge how he or his family reacts to something, because you are not them. And the loser part... he is simply trying to do that to act cool or whatnot... its not cool to change your name to an improper form of eightyfive in spanish which actually reads eight five. What is the problem with him trying to act cool? Why does trying to act cool make someone a loser? Sorry, I didn't realize you were the arbitrator of cool. I'll be sure to let Chad Johnson know that you don't think what he does is cool. Do you do anything that is uncool?? You cant honestly think the NFL is trying to avoid individualism, and especially to think that they are racist. Players are allowed to be themselves, but the NFL stopping showboating isnt wrong. Yes, I do honestly think that. And yes, I think racism plays a part. I never said the NFL stopping showboating is wrong. I hate how if someone tries to do something wrong and they get caught, automatically if they are black its a freaking hate crime. Stop talking out of your ass. Chad Johnson has not done anything wrong and he has not been "caught". Im sure if freaking Tom Brady wanted to change his name to " Tom Uno-Dos" they would have the exact same reaction. By changing his name to showboat himself, he disgraces his family name and treats it as some joke. Your name is not something you can just change, its your identity. Again, you aren't his family so stop speaking for them. Let them say he is disgracing them, you have no clue what they think. Your name is something you can change, and it's not like it will be permanent. I am sure he will change it back once he retires, and people will still call him Chad even though his Jersey sells thousands with the OCHO-CINCO name on the back. I think who you are and what you do in life identifies you more than your name, but whatever.
August 14, 200817 yr what if he goes to another team and 85 is taken or retired??? than what will he do. Ocho Cinco on the back of jersey # 19 might look pretty retarded.

August 14, 200817 yr No, you're not allowed to think it's disgraceful to his family and himself because you are not his family or Chad Johnson. You don't get to judge how he or his family reacts to something, because you are not them. For me to judge whether or not I think he is a disgrace to his family name has absolutely nothing to do with his family's thoughts on the matter. I THINK that Chad Johnson is a disgrace to the Johnson name, and it has absolutely no input of what his family thinks. If his family doesnt mind it then whoopdeef***ingdo. That has nothing to do with me. I have my own oppinion, and there oppinion on what is disgraceful to a family's name means nothing. I am entitled to think what I want. You dont think that because for example every Muslim must marry another Muslim or else its a disgrace to their name, it applies to what I THINK? No. They can think what they want. I am a Christian, so its irrelivant. They are a differant person than me, so what they THINK is irrelivant. (BTW Im sorry if I am incorrect or insulted anyone, its just the best way I could put it there) What is the problem with him trying to act cool? Why does trying to act cool make someone a loser? Sorry, I didn't realize you were the arbitrator of cool. I'll be sure to let Chad Johnson know that you don't think what he does is cool. Do you do anything that is uncool?? The problem? That just shows how much of a poor sported, fame and spotlight seeking attention whore he is. Yes, that makes him a loser. When did I say I was the arbitrator of cool? Becuase I THINK he is a loser... as clearly stated before, you hacking your ass away at MY oppinion, and then claiming you simply ASKED me, when obviously your attitude here is sour. Yes, I do honestly think that. And yes, I think racism plays a part. I never said the NFL stopping showboating is wrong. Stop talking out of your ass. Chad Johnson has not done anything wrong and he has not been "caught". Hmm last I checked, circumventilating these filters are against the rules. F U C K. But hey, it still says f*** there doesnt it? Not until a moderator takes action does that get changed. But wait, what I did, was it allowed? No. You arent allowed to write whatever you want on your jersey just like you arent allowed to write f***. Chad Johnson instead opts to write F U C K on the back of his jersey and now the NFL is trying to stop it. Yes, he was caught. There may not be much they can do about it, but yes, he is doing something against the rules of the NFL but by changing his name legally the NFL cant touch him. Of course you go on with these insults after "claiming" that you simply "asked me". No sir, I am not talking out of my ass. So then how come you didnt comment on the Tom Cuatro or the Brett Uno Dos, if you think this is such a racist act? You honestly think the NFL wouldnt treat it as the EXACT same situation and act the exact same way? If you think otherwise... then you are wrong. Again, you aren't his family so stop speaking for them. Let them say he is disgracing them, you have no clue what they think. Your name is something you can change, and it's not like it will be permanent. I am sure he will change it back once he retires, and people will still call him Chad even though his Jersey sells thousands with the OCHO-CINCO name on the back. I think who you are and what you do in life identifies you more than your name, but whatever. Again where did I say I was speaking for his family? They may or may not be upset about it, but no matter how you look at, that is disgraceful to the Johnson family name. Your name is your identity, your background, its where you come from, its who you are. He is rejecting that so he can look cool. And people dying to look cool and showboat like he is doing are lame. Thats just totally poor sportsmanship, 100% Grade A Chadass Johnson rub-it-in-ur-face garbage.
August 18, 200817 yr August 16: Chad Johnson challenges Michael Phelps to a swimming race. August 17: Chad Johnson injures his shoulder. Coincidence? :shifty
August 19, 200817 yr I love Chad Johnson and hate what the NFL has become. Go Chad, screw the NFL! :thumbup It truly is becoming the No Fun League. August 16: Chad Johnson challenges Michael Phelps to a swimming race. That was awesome!
August 30, 200817 yr I'm shocked there hasn't been a thread about this yet. :lol "Chad Johnson" is no longer named Chad Johnson. He has legally changed his name to Chad Javon Ocho Cinco. Thoughts?
August 30, 200817 yr I'm pretty sure there was a thread on this... I personally think it's hilarious, the guy is a show, he's having fun, I'm laughing, nothing wrong with that.
August 30, 200817 yr Goddell is def. gonna fight to have that never reach his jersey, but I am not sure he can.
August 30, 200817 yr that makes my bengals top out of date now cos it has Johnson on the back :mad Perfect. Now you don't have to wear one of the ugliest jerseys on the face of the Earth. It's a blessing in disguise.
August 30, 200817 yr I dont know why you guys are surprised, this is the same guy that raced a horse on national television a couple of years ago.
August 30, 200817 yr I dont know why you guys are surprised, this is the same guy that raced a horse on national television a couple of years ago. Someone's gotta reinject the fun into the NFL.

You have to admit though, racing a horse and changing your name to Ocho Cinco is as good as entertainment gets. It might just be me but the guy makes me laugh and he isn't hurting anybody.

He is when he's bitching week in and week out about wanting a trade. The Bengals are idiots for not taking 2 high picks from the Redskins for this fool. You know it's just a matter of time before Marvin Lewis gets fed up with the guy.

August 31, 200817 yr You're right. Who doesn't love tiger stripes? I'm pretty sure Roy from Siegfried & Roy isn't too fond of them anymore.
