Ochocinco will now be a Miami Dolphin

The circus will continue.  Only four days after being released by the New England Patriots, veteran wide receiver Chad Ochocinco has found a new home and it’s the same as his old home.  He’ll be taking his talents to South Beach; Chad Ochocinco has joined the Miami Dolphins.  He’ll be joining the team on Wednesday to participate in some off-season training activities/OTAs, where he’ll bring some of his flashiness and receiving skills to a team in dire need of one good wideout.  Chad Ochocinco was born Chad Johnson in Miami 34 years ago.

“You would like to have some players make it easy and distinguish themselves, maybe make the picture a little bit clearer,” Dolphins coach Joe Philbin said.  “We have to catch the ball more consistently at every position on offense, because it is not quite where it needs to be.”

Ochocinco won’t have to compete too hard to win playing time.  The Dolphins traded away last season’s leading receiver, Brandon Marshall, and Cinco signs to a wide receiver corps that includes Legedu Naanee, Brian Hartline, Davone Bess, and not much else.  Given his skills and in spite of his age, he’ll definitely be a good addition to that crew of cast-offs.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
