I’m not really sure how it’s possible, but Chad Ochocinco always seems to be involved in some sort of controversy. To be honest, I’m not sure I even knew who he was before his name change last year (sorry guys, I’m pretty lame).
However, once again Ochocinco is in trouble with the NFL. During the Bengals-Ravens game, Ochocinco borrowed a $1 bill from the CBS crew, and attempted to “bribe” the officials during a replay challenge.
Ochocinco’s $1 bill cost him $20,000. I’m not really sure where these numbers come from, but apparently that’s the charge when you attempt to “bribe” the referees. I mean, really, if he was seriously trying to bribe someone, don’t you think he’d use something a tad bit bigger? Like maybe in the thousands?
Everyone knows Ochocinco is a clown, the NFL should just charge him $50,000 a year and let him do whatever he wants… since he’s going to anyways.
As always, you can watch it here.

Ray Lewis Fined for Hitting Ochocinco
Baltimore Raven’s linebacker Ray Lewis received a $25,000 fine for unnecessary roughness during a Cincinnati Bengals game on October 11th. Lewis ran helmet first into Chad Ochocinco, driving him into the ground, and the force knocked off his helmet. After a 15-yard penalty, the Bengals were able to score the winning touchdown, putting them ahead of the Ravens 17-14.
Ochocinco asked NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to rescind his decision and not require Lewis pay the fine. He issued a statement on his Twitter, saying that he was not injured and didn’t think it was necessary for Lewis to lose money over it.
However, according to the Baltimore Sun, Lewis received the fine totaling almost half of his weekly salary. I don’t know about you, but I think there are better ways to spend $25,000.
