He can call himself Seis Nueve for all I care...I'm just glad we didn't trade for him.

If it takes some of the attention off of the Brett Favre saga then I'm all for it.

Re: Chad Johnson wants to change his last name...
 

Brilliant marketing decision if you ask me. NFL players get like 15% of their individual jersey sales and an "Ocho Cinco" jersey would sell much more than a "Johnson".

Re: Chad Johnson wants to change his last name...
 

I'm all for it. Pro wrestlers do it all the time. Maybe he could start wearing a mask and get his own personal "manager" to escort him to the field. That would complete the freak show that is Chad Johnson, I mean Chad Ocho Cinco (COC for short).

I'm really glad the Skins resisted and didn't give up a couple of picks for him.

HAIL!!

i think the skins made the offer, and got turned down. and Johnson is really getting annoying. listening to him is as bad as watching grass grow. im just glad he isn't here in D.C

I agree with you 100%. Freaking brilllant move on his part if he can get his name changed legally.
