combatbengal Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 I’m kidding we’re not signing Chad. Chad Johnson is wanting to make a comeback and play some more in the NFL. Who wants him? I loved what Chad did for us, but have no desire to see him back in Cincinnati. I do however wish him the best of luck and do hope that another team gives him a chance. Not sure that that will ever happen though… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 His obvious baggage aside, I don't think he is even capable of being productive anymore. There is essentially no reason for any team to sign him at all. Having a lost a step with age, he is completely useless now. He isn't physical or imposing enough to last as long as Owens or Moss did/have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volcom69 Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 He ruined his own carrer, when he decided to change his name, and start putting many other things ahead of football. I loved Chad when his last name was Johnson, and he cared that much about his game of football, where he slept at the stadium, and wanted to learn and be the best.Seems like a LONG time ago now, but it sucks that he let so much of nothing get in his way of being the best.

COB Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 It's hard to even feel sorry for Chad anymore. Hey fool, you don't have to be the center of attention every waking moment of your life. You wanted out of Cincinnati so bad? You're out of Cincinnati now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
combatbengal Posted June 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Nice to see a judge not putting up with crap or disrespect. He got serious when she entenced him to 30 days. To later for that Chad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sea Ray Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Have you guys seen the court video? I just saw it this morning and I must say that after seeing it, I lean towards Chad's side of this story. In it Chad slowly and gently pats his attorney on the rear. Throughout it all Chad never breaks into a smile and is what I would describe as subdued. I think we all pictured a jubilant Chad like after a TD. He did not appear to be taking this court proceeding lightly at all. He was serious the whole time. I think this judge had it in for Chad. I really do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Agreed, Sea Ray. Obviously the video didn't show the entire day in court, so maybe his conduct was poor prior to that incident and she simply reached her breaking point. If his only offense was that slap on the butt, then he did literally nothing wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Yeah, the whole "butt pat" thing was pretty understated. But it got the rest of the courtroom giggling and that clearly set her off. I agree with searay, it sure looks like she was looking for any excuse to bring down the hammer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
membengal Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 A lot if judges are woefully short with regard to humor, and really get their ire up if they think their courtroom is being disrespected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COB Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Chad needs another counseling session with his big brother and mentor, Ray Lewis. Just like Marvin explained the banking system to Chad on Hard Knocks, Ray can explain the American judicial system to Chad. Ray was a co-conspirator on a double homicide, walked out free. Chad goes to jail for 30 days for goofing around. Chad: "Please, Surrogate Father Figure, explain why I'm in jail when my lawyer said I was going to skate even though I didn't contact my probation officer for 3 months."Ray: "There was blood everwhere! Good God Almighty, we stabbed 'em, we stabbed 'em so good! Praise Jesus! Blood on my suit, in my SUV, I was washed in the blood! Walked out of that courtroom like I owned that f**king place! Yes!"Chad: "Uh..."Ray: "Whooo! Raven's stadium entrance dance! Praise Jesus!" (begins to do retarded chest pounding stadium intro dance that everyone in Baltimore is totally sick of seeing) "WHOOOOO!!!!"Chad: "ok."

combatbengal Posted June 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 Chad back in court today. He's hoping to get released early. TO visited him this past weekend; said he never wants to be in that sitaution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoosierCat Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 Yep, still sad and pathetic to see how fast his turn downhill was.It is, but you could see it coming a mile away. Chad was famous for being a football player. When that was over, his 15 minutes were going to be up. Chad seemed to understand this, but thought the answer was to turn himself into some kind of trendsetter. But he had no idea how to do that, really. So in the end he became a C-list celebrity. If this were the Seventies, he would have a spot next to Brett Sommers and Charles Nelson Reilly on "Match Game." Since this is the 21st century, he ends up on a crappy reality TV show. And he couldn't even not fck that up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

combatbengal Posted June 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 They were talking about Chad on the radio this morning and he got released from jail today; told the judge that he was sorry and she accepted it. They also spoke about his finances and get this. He pays child support (which is great; he's taking care of his kids), spends 2.5k a month on food, 3k a month on clothing, 5k a month in entertainment and so on and so on. I know he made a lot of money playing football but that’s crazy seeing that he no longer has an income.When I retired from the military, the family and I had to readjust to the new income. Chad should think about that now or he’ll be broke!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
