^ I found this little gem while bouncing around a few sites and thought that it could be a way to spend some time during the debacle of the CBA. I realize it wasn't the initial intent of this thread but that's where it has morphed to.

Wait till he finds out that there are no 7-figure signing bonuses in track and field...
Also, wait till he finds out they don't have a 40 yard event at the olympics. Being fast in the 40 is one thing, being fast in the 100m is another.
CJ was a track star in high school, so I think he's aware of the length of the races. He's fast any way you slice it.

I know. I'm a fellow ECU Alum that saw him every Saturday when he played here. I miss that dude.

I hope he makes the team and gets the chance to play in an MLS game. When I first came across this story I thought Ochocinco was just being a attention seeking moron, but it turns out he actually played soccer in high school and really loves to play the sport.

It is possible that ChadO could play soccer for the KC MLS team AND SIMULTANEOUSLY be an "attention seeking moron".
These need not be an "either/or" situation...
