Did anyone else catch this? I saw it on Sportscenter this morning. I
think that Chad has lost most of his mind. Although when he said he
read his contract and that is why he went to minicamp made sense. It
also drives me completely nuts when Chad refers to himself in the 3rd
person, or as 85. WTF

I caught highlights from it. I don't think he's lost his mind as much
as he's lost his battle. He knew all of this all along (re: the
contract clause about having to go to minicamp and whatnot). If he
didn't, then that's why he pays his agent.

I don't want to say the Bengals won this fight, but they did call his
bluff. Despite the ham-and-eggers in that front office, they still know
how to read contracts. Chad thought they'd budge; they didn't.

Now I wanna see him sit at least 40% of the games and hear non-stop
booing every time he touches the ball. The fans owe it to themselves to
do that. He didn't want to play in Cincy until he realized he can't get
paid if he holds out.

Bulldig. Sit him and let him rot. This team wasn't on the fringe with
him anyway.
