So to all of you that think Chad is sad, or want him to go away, then you have no idea what you are talking about. You must just be jealous or something. He is promoting himself, just like any other athlete, movies star, and so on. The man does not drink, do drugs, or get into trouble with the law ala Ben R, Ray Lewis, etc…he has fun, he takes the game seriously and he celebrates his accomplishments. You don’t see him taunting players to their faces or anything like that. He plays the game to have fun and he appreciates his fans. How many athletes fly fans to away games taking care of all accomodations, how many athletes take 85 people out to dinner in every city they plays in? Chad is the only one I know of for sure. So continue bad mouthing him or whatever you want, but he is truly one of the better role models of all professional athletes and entertainers today!

It’s funny that you pick on a guy that is clearly a great role model to kids in the sport of football and he does not bring his personal life into the game but you are quick to pick on anything to make him look bad…COME ON!!! His kids???? WOW if that is all you can come up with to try to make him look bad or make yourself feel better about yourself than what ever!! But I did jut read on facebook that he was flying to L.A. to spend time with his kids…

This article reflects another pathetic,jealous Bungle fan. Do you actually think a corp would risk their reputation by doing something so stupid (yes, i think it was stupid) to p*ss off fans of a nfl team? Oh, yes, foiled again by old nasty pittsburgh , get real. Say what you want about Ben R. he won 2 super bowls in 4 yrs, if he was a Bungle, Cincy would love him. Remember folks: Steelers: 6 Lombardi trophy’s Bengals: 0

Just saw T.O. call 6 people and have conversations with them last night. And Ochocinco got a cell number and put it out on facebook.. he texts back to as much as he can and will sometimes answer the phone when he can.. Id say their “high horse” really inst that high..

Ocho dingdong is NO role model for anyone except for his mirror. Popping out kids with as many women is typical. It’s a good thing he has a job. There are young kids out there without fathers who are in their lives. A mother with a slew of kids without support from the donors hurts, and the only support is from the Gov. I say Military, Police, Fire Fighters are REAL role models.

Its a cereal box and a print mistake - people in the media industry are not bright, we all know that. To take a cheap shot at Pittsburgh and Ben is classless. Then again, Ken is part of the media. Perhaps he is trying to get a spot on TMZ?

He may not be a role model on the family side of it but in the sport of football he is. All of the players in the NFL were not picked to play beacuse they sdress nice or because they are nice to other people or that they only have one child with one person they are picket to help the team win.

Lots of possible reasons for the typo in the phone number. Chad’s own reps may have provided that number themselves! Switching the 888 and 800 is actually a common error. I know the blogs on the site are more for opinion than a typical news story, but I think this particular entry crosses the line. Sometimes a typo is just a typo - not part of a football conspiracy.

The Steelers actually heard about Ochocinco’s, called the company and told them to intentionally make this mistake - Kimo is the VP of Conspiracy for the Steelers and he ok’d this sex line number… Our Pirates stink but at least they have won multiple world series, the Penguins are the best team in hockey and the Steelers will win an unprecedented 7th Super Bowl this year, so I am not exactly sure what it feels like to be from a town (an entire state actually) that can’t win anything EVER

who care if he is a bad guy or not. who cares if he has 10 kids to 10 different mothers. that has nothing to do with a mistake that the media is responsible for. and now since ben is an idiot and made a few mistakes in his time every sexual act that goes down on tv with another nfl athlete is automatically ben’s fault? if the company is taking all of the cereal off the shelves why the hell even bring it up. NO POINT!! now if people have more time to judge another, and criticize another, yinz are no better than the media. it was an honest mistake that ANYONE could have made. get over yourselves and let the man live his life.

Paxson takes a pathetic cheap shot at Ben, basically because the Bungles had their once every 10 years playoff season last year. See you folks in the playoffs again in 2020. Oh by the way, no charges were ever filed against Ben, can’t say that about too many Bengals players, their roster reads like a police blotter.

By insight

October 3, 2010 8:04 PM | Link to this

Last I saw, neither Ben nor Ray were found guilty of the charges, so we should really just lay off. They have nothing to do with this story. It’s easy to critcize someone, but what would we do if we had the same opportunity. Several jumpoffs are always trying to trap athletes, so that is nothing new. If there was a typo on the box, then correct it. If Chad had 80 kids by 80 different women, as long as he takes care of them, then who cares. He isn’t using your tax dollars. By the way, at least the cereal box is endeavoring to help the Feed the Children charity. What have you done?
