Oh No Ocho Cinco

Today is the opening kickoff to the new NFL season. So today’s thread of the day takes us to a football forum where Bengal fans discuss this latest piece of news.

At first I thought this was a joke, but unfortunately it is not. The Cincinatti Bengals’ Chad Johnson has legally changed his name to Chad Ocho Cinco. Ocho Cinco means “eight five” in Spanish which is his jersey number. The “Johnson” on his uniform will now be replaced with “Ocho Cinco”.

He should have went with the more technically correct “Ochenta y Cinco” which is “Eighty Five” in Spanish. I guess it doesn’t have the same ring to it.  Oh well, the important thing is I’m sure he will sell millions of jerseys now.
