Ocho Cinco In B&G

[Stuck in TX]

No, I'm taking advantage of the cheap tuition here at Midwestern State University (Dominic Rhodes graduated from there). But sheppard is real close.

Thanks for welcomes... I look foward to contributing and getting my info to and from this site.

yeah, i spent my 4 1/2 months there. not my favorite place. one of those school will take an avionics guy, have him take a couple classes, and pop him out with an accounting degree in under 10 months. not really sure what the two fields have in common, but it's pretty popular with permanent party there.

ESPN - Rosenhaus says Johnson will play in '08, but won't say if it's with Cincinnati - NFL

Rosehnaus & ocho speak..

We need him for our redzone scheme. I scream every time we just try to punch it in with portis twice then try to punch it in with betts. Lets bring Ocho here and have him perform. Now I know that punch it in style in the redzone was Jibbs "thing" but in all Ocho in the redzone is what we need.

price being taken into account, i'd rather have tj whosyamomma. roy williams would also be a good low-er budget guy to go after. i think CJ will be quite pricey.

There is a very persistent story out there that Johnson and Hue Jackson got into fisticuffs in the locker room at halftime of the Bengals' playoff loss to the Steelers (the game where Carson Plamer had to be carried off in the 1st quarter) because Johnson didn't think his number was being called enough. There is also a persistent story that when Marvin Lewis brok up the altercation, Lewis caught a punch - - that was "an accident".


Even if that story is "embellished a bit", I think it would give one reason to suspect that ocho cinquo might not be named "teammate of the decade".

I thought it was TJ and Hue? You could be right though.

Somewhat off-topic, I think the Bengals made a mistake in not firing Marvin Lewis. He seems to have lost that team and I just don't think he's the right fit for them.

SmootSmack:

Agree Lewis seems to have lost the Bengals. I think he's not getting fired for economic reasons. The Bengals just don't like to pay people who don't work for them.

That was what I was referring to in my earlier post (#45) in this thread. I didn't know it came to blows though.

Consider that this was during Cincy's best season w/him as I recall. They were an up & coming team but seemed to regress since then.

What number would Oucho Cinco wear? 81 is out of the question.

Wouldn't he wear #85? Brandon Lloyd sure won't need it.

You gotta figure Danny would back load his contract and give him a huge signing bonus. or maybe CJ wants out bad enough he would rework his contract with the Bengals and allow a trade of some sort probubly draft picks. Hopefully he would not kill us in the $$$ and the team would except perhaps a draft pick that would not hurt us. Who knows maybe the bad publicity works in our favor. lol. Similar to Moss or TO.

Anyone hear or rumored to have heard any other bad news about CJ. lol.

[skinsguy]

Well, like Randy Moss in New England, maybe Chad just needs a change. While I know the reasons for Moss wanting to go to NE (going to a Super Bowl contender,) he seems to be a brand new player.

I honestly say I'd probably give ol' chad Johnson a shot. Couldn't be any worse than having Michael Westbrook.

[T.O.Killa]

After watching the Super Bowl, I think the Redskins should spend their money on D-lin and O-line. I would like to see them draft and thru free agency bolster both lines. Our recievers are underated and will look alot better, with an improved O-line.

[SBXVII]

You know I completely forgot that Moss went to the Patriots hoping to win a SB. lol. That makes it all the more enjoyable. Unless for some ungodly reason he ends up with us in the off season then I'm totally denying this.lol.
