Ocho Cinco In B&G

[Coff]

A guy like Chad Johnson is happy when he's winning, unhappy when he's losing. And when a guy like Chad Johnson is unhappy, everyone is unhappy. Those who support CJ coming to the Skins need to be prepared for the ramifications of such a decision if and when things do not go well. One losing season and CJ will wreak havoc, and what reason do we have to believe that with CJ we will suddenly become contenders? It hasn't worked in the past with our huge acquisitions, and we're currently a team in flux, what with a new coaching staff and all. Maybe things will work out, maybe the depth we have been accumulating will pay off, and signing a guy like CJ will be what finally takes us to that next level. But are you prepared for all the garbage that CJ will heap upon this team in the event that we do not become contenders? That is the question you have to ask.

I disagree if you look at our last ten year history based on that lonely we aren't a winning franchise & CJ knows that. He likes our potential as a team plus it was mentioned he was interested in us & Miami trust me he wants to win but he wouldn't pitch that big of a fit if we lost games.

It will be a different story once the signing bonus Rosenhaus negotiates with Snyder is cashed. I would take anything that comes out of CJ's mouth at this point with a "shaker" of salt. Anything he says about "interest in a certain team" is coming from Rosenhaus and is designed to get him out of Cincy.

True I agree about Rosenhaus, but we are not the Colts, Pats, Eagles, Seahawks teams that pretty much make the playoffs every year we want to but we aren't a winning team like that and he knows that.

Ocho Cinco is interested in one thing........and that is the monster contracts that Dan Snyder historically pays out.

I agree. I'm really, REALLY tired of his antics. I used to think his shenanigans were cheeky and fun. It's become clear that when someone catches more TDs than he does (Housh), and the team struggles, the real number 85 emerges. Evil shenanigans. Crybaby bullshit. I definitely want to add a big WR, but if we piss away our draft for a 30 year old me first attention hog... I'll put my head through a wall to say the least. Just say no to ocho stinko.

Of course he likes our potential as a team (if he is actually considering coming here) but that's just my point. If the team's potential does not live up to his expectations, he will be dissapointed, and pitch a fit; he'll do the same thing he's doing in Cincy, cry like a baby until he gets his way and we trade him or release him. Again, we can avoid that mess simply by winning, but why take that chance? Based on his behavior, there is no reason to believe he wouldn't resort to acting like a prima donna cry baby if we start to lose.
