Man, he can get a life in the off-season. Let him stafy focused and do what he does during the season.

Besides, he's doing what he LOVES for a living, and a very comfortable one at that.

How many of us can say that?

He doesn't have to be out on the town to be having a good time.

Besides, dude is as funny as they come. Very entertaining individual. Its not like he's some lame, boring cat.

Let him live his life.

Funny.

It's that "lack of a life" (I would love to have his) that makes him great BTW - lives, eats, breathes football and will settle for nothing less than being the best.

You can't buy or coach that kind of attitude and work ethic.

Never has a bad thing to say about the city in general or the fans either.

I have nothing but respect for the guy - but wish he'd eat better, that sh#^ is going to catch up to him some day. :)

Didn't SI say he has four kids with four different mothers? Forgive me if I don't stay up late worrying about Chad Johnson's social life.

Maybe he should talk to James Brooks or James Francis about what he should do with his free time.

Unfortunately, while not unusual with pro athletes, I am not aware of that.

From an old article by Lonnie Wheeler in the Post during Chad's 3rd season:

"If it weren't for football," he says solemnly, humbly, "I'd be one of three places. I'd be dead, I'd be in jail, or, what's the third thing? -- selling drugs. I guarantee you I could give you 30 names right now of people I grew up with who are dead. We got 'em dead, we got 'em in jail, we got 'em on the street hustling.

"I cannot sit here and picture myself, 25 years old -- someone who did not like school, who was not successful at school, who was no academic genius -- without football. What would I be able to do? Football had to do it. Football is my savior."

And so Chad Johnson embraces football like an old teddy bear at bedtime. Only, a couple nights a week, he takes his bedtime now in the players' lounge at Paul Brown.

It must be something about temptation, and Johnson's carefully nurtured need to stay away from it. When he was in junior college in Santa Monica, Calif. -- before signing with Oregon State, out of which he was taken by the Bengals in the second round of 2001 -- he was arrested for a domestic incident involving his girlfriend, and it cost him 30 days of community service, not to mention the black marks in the draft rooms. There will be no domestic incidents in the PBS players' lounge.

"It was all my grandma keeping me on the right path," Johnson says. "I associated with people all my life who drink and smoke and do things they have no business doing, but I knew where to draw the line. That's why I am where I am right now."

Is that his house in miami or in cincy? if its in cincy might exsplain why its so small sense he really lives in miami

His offseason house is in Miami, as are all of his cars. While in Cincinnati, he drives an old Buick and lives in the house shown on the interview with Sharpe.

um lst i checked an old buick isn't a 2005 yellow custom Lamboghini Murceliago, or his Baby Pink convertable he drives.

Which al have been spotted in the cincinnati area, with him driving in them.

I'm sure he drives those as well, he's a rich bastard. He can buy cars here, and play with them, then send them down to Miami. He has his Buick to drive to and from work in Cincy... They had a story about it I believe on Sunday NFL Countdown last week on ESPN.

I am pretty sure I saw Chad about 3 weeks ago driving a Masarati. He peeled out going across the bridge in between the US Bank arena and GA field. A truck in front of him stopped and did a u-turn, and Chad almost rear-ended him. I thought I was witnessing the demise of the 05' Bengals. But all was well, and the car was sweet. A dark maroon convertible.
