I’ve always been a pretty avid fan of the NFL, but as of lately, something has really kept me away from football media. Due to several disagreements with the Cincinnati Bengals, wide receiver Chad Johnson has chosen to ditch practices as a way to show that he wants to be traded. I think trading him would be a bad idea. Instead, they should fire him. What this man is doing along with other problematic receivers such as a younger Randy Moss in Oakland, Hines Ward and his dispute with QB Ben Roas of recently, and of course the infamous Terrell Owens is a strain on everything the game of football is about. Playing football was once about hitting another person as hard as you possibly can, and yet these few can only sit there and whine about it.Maybe it’s not all Chad Johnson, though. I think Cincinnati does have something to do with why he’s so unhappy because it’s definitely nothing new there. Along with Chad Johnson, receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh is also skipping some of the Bengals practices. A few years ago running back Corey Dillon was looking to be traded away from Cincinnati as well. Afterward he won the Superbowl with New England, so just maybe it is the city’s problem.Obviously this isn’t the first time some jerk player has been all over the media for displaying his disputes with his team. It’s almost expected these days, and personally that’s a little sickening. Chad Johnson says it’s because Cincinnati doesn’t respect his talent. If a team as desperate as the Bengals doesn’t respect real talent, then who will? If you want to show that your upset about playing football for money, next time show someone else Chad Johnson.
