Why are people so mad that Chad Johnson's changing his name to Ocho Cinco?

Question

Chad Johnson is trying to legally change his last name to Ocho Cinco, I personally think its hilarious and he should if he wants to. But some people are so against it and just think he's an idiot, the truth is he's one of the hardest working, most athletic people thats playing football.

Why do people get so worked up over this? It affects them in no way

Answer 1

I just don't understand why this guy gets so much attention.  

Answer 2

i dont think alot of people care

Answer 3

Who's mad? I just think it's stupid. It's also a blatant attempt to draw attention to himself. If he were half as good as he thinks he is then he would have no need to do such silly and meaningless things. His antics are a distraction to his team. End Zone Dancers are all alike. Show some class. Act like you've been there before.

Answer 4

who knows!! and personally i dont care but he better bring his best to the field this year!!

WHO DEY!

Answer 5

Because they have nothing better to do than judge someone else when thier lives are probably more screwed up and wierd.  

I think its funny as heII  and I could care less what he does with his name or life just as long as he keeps playing well and entertaining us on the feild.

Answer 6

Who cares Chad Johnson is a heck of  WR but lets face it he's not that bright.  I'm sure it just a stunt to get the limelight back on him.  He was probably missing it during the whole Brett Favre thing.

Answer 7

ok heres how its going down.

he changes his name

gets traded to a team where 85 is retired

decides to sit out until he gets his number

and while he sits he talks to the press about how he could beat other elite athletes in there sport

probably something like i can beat josh hamelton in a home run derby

or i could beat the Boston Celtics all by myself.

anyway hes going to change his name because its chad johnson and really i dont see why people care. He is a phenomenal athlete, just one that likes to do stupid stuff  

Answer 8

i don't care if he does or not as long as he has a great season. And lets be honest when has he had a bad year never.

Answer 9

Because people should not be able to legally change it to what ever they want!  Whats next people changing their name to Superman.  Johnson it is idiot anyway!  New Zealand stopped  people from being able to do this after too many people were naming their kids stupid things.  Like the girl whos parents named her Tula the hula hop or something like that.

Answer 10

i also think its hilarious  so if he gets traded and the number 85 is already taken he can change his name again.
