The Future Of Chad Ocho Cinco

Rumors have flown in recent days that Chad "The Spanish Flea" Ocho Cinco had been traded from the Cincinatti Bengals to the Oakland Raiders for Michael Bush and a second round pick.  The rumors were in fact false, and based on fabricated corroboration from Raiders coaches.

Thus, I wanted to take the time to say: Chad Ocho Cinco, would you please go away?

Your antics have polluted your team, and have now polluted the credibility of The Bleacher Report, which seeks to give a credible voice to the fans. 

There was a time, back in your early career where your antics were entertaining and you worked like Jerry Rice, but clearly those antics have become an addiction because the people around you have suffered from them. Yet you continue doing them. 

And those antics have given a platform for other crackpots to erode the integrity and credibility of others.  In other words, your antics have now in some ways, defamed the voice of the fans.

By the way, it is: Ochenta y cinco, or ochentacinco—not Ocho Cinco.  I'm sure that you don't care, and that some think it's funny.  To me however, (and possibly others), it's just a symbol of how lazy your antics have become, yet you continue doing them.

Perhaps you are now trying to pull a, Cutler—my new word to mean "compelling your team to cut or trade you."

But why should any team believe that you won't be another Terrell Owens, and why would they trade fair-value right now when your stock is at an all time low?  In other words, you're a great talent yet you're trying to force the Bengals to let you go for relatively nothing. When the Bengals have not done anything egregious to deserve that.  In my book, that makes you a buffoon.
