Name Change to "Ocho Cinco"

Cincinnati Bengals receiver Chad Johnson is in the news. Again. What could he possibly have to say now? This tends to be a common question because he is frequently out to shock the media. The topic this time involves a name change to "Chad Ocho Cinco" based on the No. 85 jersey he slips on week after week.


Why he feels the need to do this? Who knows. He has declined to admit the change, but the state of Florida reported the change occurred last week.


"If it ain't about the Ravens, I don't want to talk," Johnson stated, as he is currently preparing for the Bengals season opener this Sunday.


It will be interesting to see if the back of Johnson's jersey reads "Ocho Cinco" on Sunday, especially after injuring his left shoulder during the second pre-season game versus Detroit. Good luck, Chad Johnson, Ocho Cinco, Future H.O.F, or whatever your names ends up being. But if you end up injuring yourself even worse in the first couple games of the season, don't start complaining that it was your teammates' faults.
