Chad Ochocinco Fined for Hijinks


CINCINATTI, OH - Eccentric Bengals receiver Chad Ochocinco was fined $20,000 for an unabashed display of hijinks following a touchdown in Sunday's game. The idiosyncratic name changer engaged in a somewhat original act of whimsy after a productive offensive play in which he played a pivotal role. The play-making goofball, known for his celebratory antics, silenced doubters of his commitment to tomfoolery.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is taking a hard line with the borderline entertainer. In a press conference yesterday, Goodell read in a statement, "Chad needs to take responsibility for the damages that he causes with his shenanigans. They detract from the serious nature of athletic spectacle, and distract other players who are trying to pay attention to the game."

When asked where the money from Ochocinco's fine will go, Roger Goodell paused briefly before swiftly levying a fine on the inquisitive reporter for being a "smart aleck."
