Ochocinco Condoms Coming Soon?

Of course, if the Bengals make the Superbowl (pardon me while I laugh hysterically for minute…… hahahhaha…… okay I’m back), then the timing might interfere with his football schedule. Otherwise, he’d be cleared to go.

Would you watch DWTS if Ochocinco was on it?

Ochocinco On Dancing With the Stars?

Recently, the man formerly known has Chad Johnson guaranteed that the Cincinnati Bengals would make the 2009 NFL playoffs. Considering that the Bengals won just four games last year, that’s quite a statement.

Here’s the actual quote, courtesy of ESPN.com:

“It’s going to be a great year; we’re going to the playoffs. We’re going … We’re making progress. I mean, I see it, and I can come out on a limb and say what we’re going to do.”

That’s not exactly Joe Namath — or even Rasheed Wallace, for that matter — but that quote should add even more drama to the 2009 NFL season for the Bengals if they begin to sputter.

If Cincinnati is going to the playoffs, they’ll need a better season than they got last year from Ochocinco. He had only 53 catches for 540 yards. In the previous five seasons, he never had fewer than 87 catches or 1,274 yards.

We’ll see if Ochocinco can live up to his end of the bargain.

Here is the transcript of Palmer when he appeared on “Movin’ The Chains”, a show on Sirius NFL Radio:

When asked about his wide receivers during the recent Bengals voluntary workouts:

“It’s definitely a new look for the Bengals receiver corps but I couldn’t be happier with the guys we’ve got. T.J. gone and Chad’s pretty much gone – he hasn’t been here. So we’ve got guys that want those two spots, guys that compete day in and day out – when we’re out there on the field, running, conditioning and in the weight room lifting. They’re guys that want to take over for those two spots. They look every bit capable of doing what we’re going to ask them to do.”

When asked about Chad Ochocinco specifically:

“I haven’t talked to him. I haven’t talked to anybody that has talked to him. He wasn’t here last year so I’m expecting him not to be here at all this year. Last year I think he was here for the mandatory camp but didn’t participate in it, so I’m planning on him not being here just because he hasn’t been here yet.”

Chad Ochocinco has shown that he’s capable of changing his name. Will he be capable of changing Carson Palmer’s seemingly negative opinion of him?

Stay tuned.

Carson Palmer Blasts Chad Ochocinco

Last year, he changed his name from Chad Johnson to Chad Ocho Cinco to presumably give his “Ocho Cinco” nickname a better stage. He wanted his jersey last year to say “Ocho Cinco” on the back but the NFL said that they were notified too late to make the change.

This year, there still won’t be an “Ocho Cinco” number 85 available in Cincinnati Bengals colors. Instead, the jersey will say “Ochocinco” on the back. Apparently, when Chad Johnson issued his name change request to the NFL, he wrote it as one word instead of two.

No word yet if Chad Ocho Cinco will be satisfied with Ochocinco.
