Im saying it doesnt need to be fake because he can get one easily if he wants not necessarily needs. I agree theres most likely nothing wrong with him and the mri will show nothing.
WR Chad Ochocinco says Cincinnati Bengals treated 37-0 loss to NY http://http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/2010/01/wr_chad_ochocinco_says_bengals.html Jets as a 'preseason game' By Manish Mehta/The Star-Ledger January 05, 2010, 12:44PM Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco said an MRI on his left knee showed no structural damage and that he will practice Tuesday. CINCINNATI -- Chad Ochocinco may not be his typically loose-lipped self in the run-up to Saturday?s wildcard rematch against the Jets, but the outspoken Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver made one thing abundantly clear Tuesday: the Bengals treated last Sunday night?s 37-0 drubbing to the Jets as a preseason game. Ochocinco, who was held without a catch before bowing out late in the first half with a tweaked knee suffered in pre-game warmups, said Cincinnati?s offense was ?extremely vanilla.? ?Similar to a preseason game,? Ochocinco said Tuesday in the only time he will speak to reporters before the game. Ochocinco, of course, became the latest captive on Revis Island, a place where star receivers disappear at the hands of shutdown cornerback Darrelle Revis. The wideout promised no more friendly Twitter with Revis this time. ?I?m energized but more in a focused way,? Ochocinco said. ?This isn?t a week to talk. This isn?t a week for games and fun.? Ochocinco?s MRI on his left knee showed no structural damage. He said he was going to practice Tuesday. ?Ocho got his ego bruised when he fell down before the game,? Bengals coach Marvin Lewis said. ?Other than that, he?s healthy as I think he?s twittered all over America. That?s what happens. The only way you come back from that is to come and put up. So, now it?s time for all of us to put up.? Ochocinco also took exception to safety Kerry Rhodes' claim that he could be rattled if he was hit early. Rhodes delivered a blow on Ochocinco in the first half. ?I'm not sure where Kerry gets that from," Ochocinco said. "I?ve been getting smacked all year long. I don't know if he's seen the highlights. But it makes no sense at all."
If I was Marvin Lewis I'd have taken him out and kept him out, too. He nicked up his knee, they were down about 30, it was freezing cold and Revis was pushing him all around the joint. They need him in six days, that's an easy one.
I don't understand how anyone can seriously hate this guy. The NFL could use more players with a personality like his. At least he didn't claim Revis had safety help over the top... He actually admitted Revis was the best CB in the league and shut him down.
Though it would have been fair to point out that Revis DID have help over the top when Sherry smacked him.... I love Ocho Cinco....
I've learned to like OchoCinco a lot more since he stuck it to the NFL brass by changing his name. He brings a lot of humor and flamboyance to the league. OchoCinco = the Diamond David Lee Roth of the NFL.
