    Fine, if I were to write any stories, I'd say Chad Johnson (who should have legally changed his name to Attention Whore).

    I get the impression that a lot of outlets just dont know how to proceed with this because it just seems too ridiculous to ACTUALLY be legitimate. like we should just wait for the point where he comes out and admits its another attention-whoring gag and proceed per usual

    (I hope it's clear I'm not actually angry about this ESPN choice - and that I am simply excited to read stories about Chad Ocho Cinco's shoulder.)

    The crawl on ESPN right now just mention's "Chad Johnson's shoulder ..." No Ocho-Stinko. :-\

    As it should be. Why get dragged into it when you know it's a publicity stunt.

    My personal button was people calling LaDanian Tomlinson "LT."

    That's taken.

    When Lloyd Free legally changed his name to World B. Free, how was he referenced? Isn't it the same situation.

    A quick check pf public records would prove if this is legitimate or a gag. It his legal name is legal name is Chad Ocho Cinco, refer to him as Ocho Cinco. Or better yet, just Cinco.

    So what's your take on Cross Canadian Ragweed being referred to as CCR?
