[pontooner]

Sources are reporting the deal is done.

I for one have been pushing for this since the Super Bowl... Once the season was over I prayed Cincy would get another long distance reciever threat instead of these guys like Coles who can only run patterns in teh flats with any success. Last year they just double covered Chad every single play, leaving us relying on a running game. If our running game comes back strong and we can have both of these divas on teh field at once, it definitely opens up Carson Palmers options...

to me this is a smart move...

Chad Johnson and Owens are good friends, it's Johnson who really made this happen. I hate Owens but I guess I'll just have to get over it, lol.

Owens is a tool. I think he will be gone in a year maybe two. I just don't see it working. I know he is in for a two year deal but jeez I can't imagine him being around especially if they flounder this year.

He is headed for Hollywood since he really wants the publicity and not the hard work of the NFL....JMHO.

Wasn't he passed up by many teams? Not many teams want that baggage on a guy who isn't as good as he thinks he is.

One thing for sure Cincy will get more talk time on the NFL scene with the drama queen on their team. Georgetown KY will be buzzing as well!

I like the move and I think the two will make it work. Going to be an exciting day tomorrow. Me and my son are going to early session of training camp.

Don, it is a one year deal for $2 million along with incentives that could double it. Also, one thing is wrong with your statement, T.O. is an extremely hard worker and is always in excellent shape, normally stays injury free.

TOcho Show will be DRAMA from Day 1. Palmer can only throw 1 football at a time, they only have one football on the field at a time and with these 2 MOUTHS both wanting the football on every play - unless the ball can reproduce after the snap then not good. The term "Throw me the **** Ball" will be thought of on every play by one or both of these bozos and the second the Bengals lose a few games will be said by one or both of them. Rank the top 5 Egos of the NFL and both of these guys are in the top 5 and could be the top 2. These 2 guys make it the National Fool League. Maybe VH1 will start showing the Bengals games with the TO Show and Ocho Dating show before and after each game.

Oops I guess I read it wrong on the article... I am not a fan of this tool. To me he represents what is wrong with the NFL. (I'm old school I like nose to the grindstone beat you down and stomp your face football) I googled his name and read about some of his antics over the years and I can see why the premier teams didn't want him. I really don't know his work ethic but I would say alot of what he has is God given talent. Drama queen and bad for most teams.

Like I said he has just made the Bengals a huge topic of conversation and that alone might be worth the money he is getting paid.

I've always wanted to see somebody bust his teeth out, litterally. Have them bouncing on the field, then the camera zoom in on them while he lays there unconscious, but I'm a sick SOB, I can't help it. You know a Ronnie Lott type hit where his helmet flies off ten yards and they have to collect his teeth and take him out on a cart, just the thought makes me Giddy.

AMEN!! I wanna see him crying in the camera looking like Michael Spinx.

LMAO

Ochocinco has always been a team player, even with his ego. He has never complained about not getting teh ball... that was Whose-Your-Mama... i believe that with these guys being good friends, they will work together to share the passes without much drama... I really do...


I for one am excited about this season...


WHO DEY!!!!

[ElectricSLT]

Don't you know Jack Tatum's (RIP) in heaven thinking - man I think I could shut T.O.'s mouth for GOOD!

Ocho's OK - but I would take an old school guy - if any are left . . .
