Chad changes name back

bbergforum_veteranOPWelp, looks like its going to be official? Ocho is back to C. Johnson.
Good news for the 'phins? Not sure it will help/hurt Hard Knock... But I think this is a real good sign for the dolphins WR. Sure.. it's for his wife, but it shows maturity and might help some of the doubts.

HULKFishforum_veteranI think it is good... Everyone knows it is Johnson we wanted, and not Ocho.
I also think he will turn some heads with his rededication to the game. I have a great feeling about him this season!

Headcoach material wouldn’t want to work somewhere they’re not trusted with actual football decisions.

Fair enough.. my buddy texted me saying "No more ocho" so I assumed he was cut.. thought it was good humor.
my apologies.

DisgustipatesubscriberI'm glad he changed it back, "Ochocinco" sounded way too much like he was having fun.
Tone_EsubscriberIsn't there a stipulation that the NFL won't allow name changes unless advanced notice has been given due to merchandise laws. I say that because when he initially changed is name to Ochocinco, he had to wear Johnson for the year because it was beyond a certain deadline and all the apparel has been made/sold/shipped or something.
Curious to see what his jersey will look like this year.

I found it funny. At least you had a question mark.
What's far more annoying is when people put "Breaking News" before a thread title. I want to punch them.

Sooner or later they all wake up one day and say " WTF was I doing. " Good for Chad.

After his last suspension, Colin Cowherd took to calling him Metta World Mishap. I liked that better. :)

bbergforum_veteran"I ate every bit of that humble pie," Ochocinco told the newspaper about his season with the Patriots. "I believe it made me a better man, a better player.
"The Dolphins are the right team, the right offense. I'm at the good place in my life. Everything fits perfectly for me."
I'm starting to love this guy. I really hope he makes the roster.

Aguaforum_veteranYeah, I think it is symptomatic of maturity.
