In response to:
Ocho-Cinco won't sit out '08
Bengals wide receiver Chad Johnson said Wednesday in an interview with ESPN's Brian Kenny he will not sit out the 2008 season. Johnson was reacting to comments made Tuesday by head coach Marvin Lewis at the owner's meetings in Florida. The coach had said the Bengals are "prepared to move on" if the all-star wide receiver decides to sit out the 2008 season. "It's unfortunate that Chad has put himself in that situation, because a lot of people who really had affection for him now see him in a different light," Lewis said Tuesday. "Affection? That's the problem right there," Johnson responded Wednesday. "The player is not gonna change. Chad has to do what's right for Chad... That's why (Lewis) made the comment. He thinks I'm worried about people liking me. Those days are over. I'm not worried about them anymore, because I have to do what's right for me."

 

Ocho-Cinco was an allstar.  Now, he's turned into an "all-eyes-on-me-star."  I wouldn't doubt it if the guy said he was going to sit out of the 2008 season just to get some press, because who would think that the allstar would sit a whole season?  Then, he comes back and gets even more press indicating that he's back for the season!  Who'd expect it, right?  Well, congrats to the Bengals on keeping your hands on an allstar.  He's an unbelievable player, but his head doesn't even fit in a helmet anymore.
