Chad Johnson News...

No, he wasn't traded our cut. He changed his name!

Chad Javon Johnson will now be Chad Javon Ocho Cinco.

I wish this was an April Fool's Joke, but it's not. Still, too funny....

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/football/nfl/specials/preview/2008/08/29/bengals.ochocinco.ap/index.html

I wonder how this affects his relationship with his teammmates now? When Johnson first put Ocho Cinco on his jersey, Palmer ripped it off.

He's injured and not playing, why is he putting the screws on Marvin Lewis and his teammates?

WOW just WOW

Dude if anything screams FANSHOT this would be it. Seriously this is not even remotely cowboys related.

Blogging The Boys
Dallas Cowboys, all the time…since 2005.

That reads at the top of the page. It doesnt say NFL news or Bengal news or anything but Dallas Cowboys. This isnt even Major NFL news like Brett Favre retiring or NFC East related news. This is some attention whore doing just that whoring attention. He misses his name being in the headlines. Stuff like this knocks off quality original thought and idea by cowboy fans.

So Unexpected next time you post a fanpost ask yourself these questions first
1. Does it have to do with the Dallas Cowboys?
2. Am i going to add my own creative thought and idea into it?
if not chances are it shouldnt be a fanpost.

What the French?! Toast!

I'm behind you Ham....people need to actually read the site news before wasting people's time by postiong this garbage... , both Fanshots and Fanposts....

no excuses for doubling up on garbage unrelated Cowboys news….

fanpost vs. fanshot

I understand you expect to get more reads and more comments as a fanpost, but part of the reason why I try to put stuff like this in fanshots instead of fanposts is that it pushes other more relevant and content-full fanposts down the list and out of view too quickly. While it’s a nice tidbit of news, we don’t really need to be getting a lot of comments on Chad Ocho Cinco here, while another more relevant fanpost just disappeared from view…

if it is relevant fanpost

then recommend it..

recs

that’s a good idea, but there are a lot of relevant fanposts that don’t necessarily merit the rec list, but don’t deserve to get pushed out by the irrelevant ones. plus it seems like with even 3 recs a fanpost can stay on the rec list for 2+ weeks after its relevance has somewhat expired… you can always unrec after comments have slowed and relevance has passed….

He can call himself what ever he wants, A better last name for him would of been Chad MOTORMOUTH

He doesn’r change the fact that he still doesn’t like going across the middle of the field.
