Versus gives Chad Ochocinco a weekly platform for his zaniness
Chad Ochocinco
If Cincinnati Bengals receiver Chad Ochocinco doesn’t get enough publicity for his outrageous stunts, such as attempting to bribe an official with a $1 bill, the Versus cable network has given him another platform for his zaniness. This week, Ochocinco debuted a segment “Child, Please!” on “Sports Soup,” 9 p.m. Tuesdays.
In his first segment, he sounded off on Sunday’s game in Pittsburgh, the bribe in this past Sunday’s game, and much more:
On Sunday’s game in Pittsburgh: Experts had us as underdogs this Sunday, I mean come on, son. Get out of here with that. Troy, Ike Taylor, Ryan Clark, Deshea Townsend, William Gay. You guys … child please, that’s all I can say. Literally no disrespect but you guys don’t stand a chance. I’m riding high on confidence right now.
The bribe in the Nov. 8 game against the Baltimore Ravens: Me being me — a fun guy who likes to have fun — I asked the guy next to me if he had a dollar. He obliged. I took the dollar and I wasn’t going to actually ask the ref, you know, let me get the call. Just having fun. It’s me and again, the NFL sees things like this and fines me and enjoys it and embraces me because I’m around for the next 10 years.
