Chad Ochocinco Planning to Change Last Name Back to Johnson
By FanHouse Staff - AOL NewsStating on ESPN's NFL Live that he's "done enough with this Ocho thing," Bengals WR Chad Ochocinco confirmed Tuesday that he plans to change his last name back to Johnson. He originally brought up the decision Monday afternoon on Twitter. "I love Cincy,we are gonna be fine, just a few minor adjustments n we'll be fine, I'll start with my name change 2 Johnson," he wrote. He told ESPN's Trey Wingo that the name change "was fun" -- the Cincinnati star legally changed his name to Chad Ochocinco just prior to the 2008 NFL season; he was required to wear the "Johnson" nameplate on his jersey that ...
Jenn Sterger Now Out of Work, 'The Daily Line' Canceled
By Ryan Wilson - AOL NewsJenn Sterger is looking for work. The former Florida St. student parlayed her looks into Maxim and Playboy spreads, a gig as the New York Jets sideline reporter (which led to the situation involving Brett Favre, text messages, and alleged naughty photos), and beginning last April, co-host of Versus' sports news show, The Daily Line. Today, the network canceled The Daily Line, citing poor ratings. Sterger manager Phil Reese tells The Associated Press on Friday the decision is "unfortunate" but "part of the business." There is no mention of what Versus considers poor ratings, but another ...

NFL Stars Are Standing Behind Vick
By Tom Herrera - AOL NewsWe're only on the second day of freedom in the Michael Vick melodrama and it's clear that figurative lines are being drawn on the turf. Following his release from federal custody, many fans and journalists have expressed their strong feelings in opposition of Vick's potential return to the NFL. But there is another side, one which includes some prominent former and current NFL stars, that believes Vick is worthy of a second chance. Michael Irvin, Jamal Anderson and Michael Strahan are a few of the former players who voiced support for Vick, while Shawne Merriman and Chad Ochocinco made their ...
Carson Palmer: My Elbow Is 100 Percent, No Ochocinco in My House
By Nancy Gay - AOL NewsLOS ANGELES -- Carson Palmer is certain about two things: Electing not to have invasive "Tommy John" reconstructive surgery on his damaged throwing elbow was a wise decision.And the Bengals quarterback will not allow Twitter-loving, attention-grabbing wide receiver and teammate Chad Ochocinco to move into his Southern California home so that the two can do some male-bonding and work out in the backyard before Cincinnati's rookies and veterans report to training camp on July 30.No way. Forget it. "That was just a 'Tweet,''' Palmer said with a huge laugh. "I'm not sure where that came from. But ...
How Can Chad Ochocinco Twitter During Games Without Fines or Suspensions?
By Stephanie Stradley - AOL NewsBengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco claims that he will tweet during games no matter what the NFL says. The NFL bans cellular devices in the bench area, and Ochocinco risks fines for ignoring such a ban. Mike Florio at Pro Football Talk suggests that openly defying the NFL policy might even lead to suspension. These days, it's hard to say what the NFL commissioner might do.Ochocinco certainly isn't afraid of fines as some of his fined behavior is the reason that even non-NFL fans know who he is. So how can he get his tweet on during games at OGOchoCinco without getting fined?Probably the ...
Chad Ochocinco Likely Faces Fine if He Tweets During Games
By Stephanie Stradley - AOL NewsThrough the social media site Twitter, the folks at Houston's 1560 The Game were able to arrange an on-air interview with Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco (otherwise known as OGOchoCinco on Twitter because one man can never have enough names, I suppose).In the interview, Ochocinco discusses many things: how he will have a new checklist in his locker; how he truly is going to live with Carson Palmer's family; and how he wants to be more of team guy than a "me" guy this year. At the 2:34 mark in the interview, he discusses his love of Twitter and the way he will be using it next year:And ...
Carson Palmer Doesn't Sound Like He's Counting on Chad Ochocinco
By Ryan Wilson - AOL NewsEven Carson Palmer, the unassuming Opie Taylor-looking Bengals quarterback, has his limits. After spending most of the 2008 season on the sidelines with a bum elbow, the 2003 first-overall pick is healthy and participating in voluntary workouts. Which, like previous offseasons, isn't the case with Chad Javon Ochocinco. He's reportedly working out in Los Angeles, and I don't doubt that -- Chad always seems prepared, at least physically, for the start of the NFL season -- but that's not really the point. Cincinnati won just four times last year, and hasn't had a winning record since 2005, also ...
NFL: Chad Johnson Can Wear 'Ochocinco' on Jersey Next Season
By Ryan Wilson - AOL NewsFirst the huge news that HBO's "Hard Knocks" will be documenting the travails of the Cincinnati Bengals this summer, and now this: Chad Javon Ocho Cinco will be allowed to wear his NFL Network-given name on the back of his jersey. Finally. Last September, Chad Johnson, who sports No. 85 for his day job, legally changed his name to "Ochocinco." Never mind that "Ocho Cinco" translated from Spanish means "Eight Five," or that Johnson wrote it as one word -- "Ochocinco" -- which translates to, well, "Ochocinco." What's important is that, according to the final judgment awarding him the name ...
Biggest NFL Busts by Team: Who's Your Team's Worst Draft Pick Ever?
By Will Brinson - AOL NewsEveryone makes mistakes. But when those mistakes are magnified by intense scrutiny of the NFL draft, well, they become much more embarrassing than, say, my typical Friday morning, mustard-stain-on-khakis incident. Which is why the NFL FanHouse braintrust got together to determine who is the biggest bust for each NFL team. They're not listed in terms of stupidity -- they're all stupid relative to a team's total draft performance. Meaning, of course, some teams "bust" is much different than another organization's; we did it this way to avoid just linking you to DetroitLions.com. Share ...
