Oh, Chad.
The wide receiver formerly known as Chad Johnson (and in a few months, probably formerly known as a Bengal, too) says he’s had enough of the “Ochocinco” bit. 85 told ESPN this week he plans to change his name back.
You know. ‘Cuz it would be weird calling yourself Ochocinco if someone else on your new team already has that name.
Pros:
- Ken Broo can stop scowling every time he has to read the name “Ochocinco.”
- Unsold Ochocinco jerseys will probably be slashed to bargain prices. Makes a great Valentine’s Day gift!
Cons:
- Hearing Dave Lapham say “Ochocinco” reminded me of hearing a fat guy ordering more chips and salsa at a Mexican restaurant. I found it oddly comforting.
- Probably the first in a long series of things about to become less fun at Paul Brown Stadium.
