Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

Anyone else extremely disappointed with Chad's 'celebration?' With all his hype, I was expecting more.

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

well...he's only one man...I'm just happy there's still someone willing to make the league fun

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

I was going to post this, but I wasn't sure if it would get any posts. I'm didn't like the celebration at all, and I thought that he is more creative than this. All they hype, and a boring show with a jacket? Come'on Chad....you can do better than that.
I did however, like the fact that he took it to the sidelines to do it. Could it be....Chad Johnson.....showing a little class????......Nah...can't be.

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

I thought it was pretty funny myself.

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

I didnt see it but i was listening to the radio broadcast with Boomer E and he didnt like it too much,shows no repsect for the coach,players in the hof,etc,etc

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

It was all in good fun, some people need to lighten up.

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

it was a joke, right? matty, your right. lighten up people

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

But you know who DIDN'T disappoint? My fantasy teams. Yessss.

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

Chad Johnson is original and funny. He may be my current favorite player in the NFL. I love his combination of work ethic, talent, and personality. Any other time I would have found this great, but he was acting as if he was going to have some huge show. It was funny, but not worth the hype it got at all.

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

Yeah, that celebration wasn't worth the hype, it was original, but not worth the hype he gave it. If you watched the game though and heard his "mic'd up" thing he was awful proud of himself.

I thought it was funny. Definitely original. I also heard that before the game, he was seen holding a sign that said "Please don't fine me again."

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

No, it really wasn't funny. It was pretty lame actually. I'll bet he thought of this months ago and it seemed like a really funny thing to do. What an imagination he has! NOT!

I wouldn't go as far as to say he disrespected the HOF or it's members, but I hope he is a bit more humble if he ever does make it.

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

it would have been better if he had fireworks going off from his jacket

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

Got to love Ocho Cinco!

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

In the end who really cares, his play on the field was the most entertaining part any way.

WOW, I was just about to post a picture of the time he actually held that sign up after a TD, but then I found this....

He's hilarious

He held that up a long time ago, he got fined for it.

I can't believe anyone would be upset by his little prank. I was expecting more out of him, it was funny no doubt, but not what I expected. As far as being offended by it, get over yourself. Football is and should be fun, not a bunch of drones.

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

Personally for all the hype that was going on it didn't live up to it, but it was still pretty funny. CJ is pretty creative when it comes to touchdown celebrations, that one was just subpar. He also said he will have a different one for every game of the season, so I would like to see what he has up his sleeve next.

I'm not sure who would have been offended by it, but I still don't think it was all that funny, maybe original, but not funny or very imaginative. If that's the best he can do, he may as well quit now and just play the game.

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

Anyone who actually takes an interest in TD celebrations and is over the age of 10, deserves to be disappointed at the very least.

Acting a fool for the man is very passe. C.P. is way ahead of the curve on this. His new militant, self-reliant approach to the game is obviously the wave of the future. Chad Johnson needs to get with the program.

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

I think there's enough room in the game for guys like CJ.

After all, they are just playing [I]a game[/I].

Perhaps, but I still enjoy watching a great play followed by a little humbleness, rather than watching Chad Johnson, or anyone else for that matter, make a routine play for a score followed by a comedic skit. I think it sets a bad precedence and a poor example of sportsmanship to younger athletes. CJ doesn't usually show up the other team, but some do, and I don't think it is necessary. There's celebration, and then there's over-celebration.

To each his own, but for me personally, I just want to watch football. I don't need all the extracurricular stuff.

I agree to each his own.. I never really bought into the 'sets a bad precedent/example to kids' line.. I'm fine with good natured celebration of your accomplishment that's still within the boundaries of good sportsmanship which is what I think Johnson does.. Some of the stuff that TO did (Ray Lewis dance) and Joe Horn (Cellphone) were over the top but Ocho Cinco doesn't take himself overly seriously. It's up to parents to teach their kids the boundaries of sportsmanship.

I am! He made a whole to do about this "greatest celebration" and all he did was put on a overcoat! I thought it was horrible. It would have been fine if he didn't run his mouth saying to watch it will be the best we've ever seen. Just horrible.

Re: Chad Johnson disappoints.
 

Oh, and it would have been a lot better if the coat said "Future Commish"!
