Drew22 Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Does it really matter? Who is going to lose sleep of Ocho Cinco changing his name? If you are that disturbed by it, maybe you are the ones who need to grow up. Eagles/Heels/Dawgs/Falcons/Hawks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I'd lose sleep over T.J. Houshmandzadeh changing his name. That would suck. How do you improve upon "Houshmandzadeh"? Persian names are cool. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Just reported on ESPN: It is officially official: The Bengals have recognized the name change and Ocho Cinco will have Ocho Cinco on the back of his jersey. This is actually going to happen. How awesome is this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are that disturbed by it, maybe you are the ones who need to grow up.I'm only torqued off about it because I assume NFL shop still won't let me buy a non Bengals Ocho Cinco jersey.

Epiphanic Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 1. Can you buy player jerseys that aren't on the team they're on? I mean is it possible to buy a Donovan McNabb Giants jersey? I don't think the absence of a non-Bengals "Ocho Cinco" jersey is that strange.2. Doesn't the NFL shop have a customize feature? If you really wanted say, a Rams "Ocho Cinco" jersey you could customize one, yeah?If the above post was a joke, then I totally missed it. "In the arena of logic, I fight unarmed."I tweet & tumble.

If you really wanted say, a Rams "Ocho Cinco" jersey you could customize one, yeah?If the above post was a joke, then I totally missed it.It was a joke related to Number 2, and how the NFL has banned certain names from being on them, such as Rae Carruth or Ron Mexico.

ShinyHubCaps Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 So how many times in opening week do you think the stiff commentators are going to:a.) call him Johnson?b.) say Ocho Cinco as if it were in "quotation marks"?c.) make a childish comment or insert their personal opinion about his name?I'm guessing 512.
