The career of Bengals receiver Chad Johnson began to diminish nearly three years ago, when word broke of his halftime antics during halftime of a playoff game against the Steelers. As we initially heard it, Johnson got into a physical altercation with receivers coach Hue Jackson, and head coach Marvin Lewis.
And so perhaps it’s fitting that the catalyst for the final collapse of Chad’s career in Cincinnati could be another scuffle.
Per Adam Schefter of NFL Network, Johnson “got into it last night with someone in the Cincinnati organization,” apparently at a team function.
Stay tuned.

Florio, are you nuts?
Chad had 1440 yds and 8 TDs last year. Now if you mean his TD dances got boring… yer right.

Good thing he doesn’t play for Dallas. He would be gone for the season after something like that.

Hopefully he took another run at Marvin Lewis. That would be the classy move by a player that is all heart. The Bengals are a joke and have been for years. They need to tear that whole organization down and start over. It’s the only way to stop these antics from happening over and over again.

Shocking…he’s such a douche.
I had heard about Johnson of course for years, but never really got the chance to watch him closely until I moved to Cincinnati last year.
He is not a money player…I’ve watched him consistently fail in the clutch…does great against lesser talents in lesser games…the Bengals need to say bye bye to Peter Pan Johnson Ocho Cinco Doucho.

If by “diminish,” you mean, got better, had the best years of his career (until 2008, injuries), and made first team all pro except for last year (Randy Moss), then by all means, he “diminished” over the past three years.

Come on, now. We all know Ocho Cinco is a Jackass, but he never stopped lobbying for a trade. His poor play is a result of him not caring about the team, and hoping that a so-so season will usher him out of town in the offseason. This fight was probably his way of attempting to seal the deal.

He was de-activated for tonite’s game in the Burgh, for instance.
Sounds like he’s up to his old bullshit.

there is a new music video with Anthony B, Wyclef, and Bonecrusher called “Lighter” that has a guest appearance by one Mr. Ocho Cinco acting like a hilarious drunken rapscallion at a party or club..
He is obviously portraying the “drunk fightstarter” at this party and I give the performance 3.5 stars. When the stars of the video realize what he’s doing they promptly tackle his ass.
Some of you will probably use this against him. If so you have forgotten how to have fun, and therefore are irrelevant to us.
either way…

He took a swing at owner Mike Brown after he learned that the Rolex that Brown sold him was, in fact, a fake.

As a long time fan, I’ve always forgiven his antics because he was so talented. Now I have to admit that his greatest talent is being a jackass. I agree with the earlier comment that he has never really come through when it mattered. He’s making me recall fondly the days of Carl Pickens, and that’s just downright depressing.
I’m taking suggestions on ways to use my Chad Johnson jersey, since from this point forward I am never wearing it again. I already have enough toilet paper.
