ochocinco was fined for his fake bribery attempt $20,000. i think thats a bit excessive, i miss good old end zone dances, maybe it's just me, but while i don't like celebrating after making an average tackle when you score you should be able to celebrate, i think the nfl is taking away part of the game that is fun to watch and if they say it's cause of time, then they should knock out some of the tv timeouts

Not a fan of Chad "Ochocinco" but this is silly. It wasn't serious and I don't even think the ref really saw what he was doing. However the NFL has a long history of being the no fun league.

He does these not-so-funny stunts for personal attention, so I have no problem with increasing the dollar amount every time. It's getting old.
This fine money goes to charities, right?
He's going to end up like MC Hammer after his playing days...he throws so much of his money away.

Apparently you didn't watch Hard Knocks on HBO during trainging camp, the guy is cheap!!! He went to Clairs and bought cubic zirconia ear rings and made the statement just because you have money doesn't mean you have to spend it...

The NFL reminds me of working for corporate america. No fun. 20k for what he did is just ridiculous. Those stiff suits on Park Avenue really need to chill out.

I though the ear ring thing was hilarious and started liking Ochocinco because of Hard Knocks... Before that I always thought he was TO Junior, but Hard Kocks really showed that he is just a smart ass who loves performing for an audience, whether its clowning or catching TD's. Reminds me of Riggo a little honestly...

Why does everyone hate on him, he really isn't that bad, truth be told I think he is very funny!!! No one here ever jokes around at work?

I'm glad some NFL players get that.
I don't think he has any problems paying the fines....whatever celebration/stunt makes him feel better is good with him.
