CINCINNATI -- Maybe receiver Chad Johnson can go by the name that his head coach hates.
The Cincinnati Bengals receiver has legally changed his name to Chad Javon Ocho Cinco in Broward County, Fla., a switch that became official this week. Johnson, who lives in Miami, didn't return a message left on his cell phone Friday night.
"It's something I don't think anyone has ever done before," he told the team's Web site. "Have I ever had a reason for why I do what I do? I'm having fun."
Two years ago, Johnson gave himself the moniker -- a reference in Spanish to his No. 85 -- and put it on the back of his uniform before a game. Quarterback Carson Palmer ripped it off before the kickoff. After the season, coach Marvin Lewis -- who dislikes Johnson's attention-getting stunts -- referred to the receiver as "Ocho Psycho."
Bengals spokesman Jack Brennan said the Bengals had no comment on the matter.
Johnson has been a concern for the Bengals this season. He unsuccessfully lobbied for a trade in the offseason, threatening to sit out if he didn't get his way. When the Bengals refused, he relented and showed up for minicamp, but complained that his right ankle was bothering him.
He had bone spurs removed from the ankle and was limited at the start of training camp. In the second preseason game, he landed awkwardly and temporarily dislocated his left shoulder. Johnson is wearing a harness and expects to play in the season opener against Baltimore.

He now trumps TO as the biggest tool the NFL has ever seen.
Hell of a player but enough with the bs antics already.

Chad Johnson's only concern is himself. He could give a rat's ass what happens to the team so long as he's getting all the attention. There was a game last year against the Titans where after he scored he jumped up on the cameraman stand and started moving it around like he was filming. Of course he cost the team 15 yards on the kickoff giving the Titans great field position. They were only up by a TD at the time I believe and it was early in the game.

When I read the headline for this thread I actually thought it was some kind of belated(albiet 5 months) April fool's joke. Changing his name is not only senseless, but wouldn't it degrade the Johnson family name?

I didn't realise he was still going along with this ocho cinco thing.
Insofar as he is doing it to genuinely raise awareness of hispanic heritage, I think it's actually quite a cool gesture. But what with the other crazy stuff he gets up to it's difficult to see it as more than the same old grandstanding.
Btw, isn't Ocho Cinco just 'Eight' and 'Five' in Spanish? Surely he should have called himself Ochenta y Cinco instead.
Probably wouldn't have been as catchy...
