Question

Do you think Chad Johnson changed his name to Chad Ocho Cinco merely to get attention?

Answer 1

No, he really wants to be known as Mr. Ocho Cinco.  It was a life long dream that start when he was 5 years old.:)

Answer 2

That's the only reason he does anything.

He wants to get all cocky and do the "ocho cinco" thing, but with his tore up shoulder he won't amount to c**p this year.

TJ Hou. will out play him and blow him out of the water stat wise this season.

I wonder if he brought his Hall of Fame jacket to the opening game this year like he did last year when he didn't do squat.

Answer 3

Probably.  I'd like to think that he did it for some personal reason that means a lot to him.  But I have a feeling it's for attention.  If so, he got what he's looking for - we're all talking about him.

Plus, this news article basically has him telling us he dosen't have a reason and that's it for fun.  

"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."
