Chad Ochocinco tries to 'bribe' official on replay ruling
The artful use of a folded bill can get people past a long line at a club, seated quickly at a restaurant with a 45-minute wait or, as countless detective shows have demonstrated, a good piece of information from a cab driver with a hazy memory. As Chad Ochocinco (notes) found out today, it ...

Chad Ochocinco tries to bribe an official and fails
Cincy Jungle — ... or shrug it off, whereas the rest of their world loses their mind? How do you know when you've reached a point that you've accepted Chad through the ups and downs of an eight-year marriage? I'll tell you when. When Chad holds onto a dollar bill to bribe the ref, after catching a 15-yard pass that was challenged and overturned, and you're actually disappointed that he didn't stuff the dollar bill in the ref's pocket. That's when. (h/t to Shutdown Corner for screen cap) Instead, he handed it back to someone and went ...

Ochocinco tries to ‘bribe’ official
The Scores Report - The National Sports Blog — From SHUTDOWN CORNER… The impish Cincinnati Bengals receiver playfully tried to bribe an NFL official today during his team’s game with its division rival, the Baltimore Ravens.

It's bad enough that Celek drew a 15 yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for the celebration, but to hear that no one can do a Captain Morgan again is just plain silly. Has Roger Goodell and his cronies forgotten that football is still a game, and with every game there is supposed to be an aspect of fun? Or, is he just jealous that he couldn't come up with something creative like a Captain Morgan pose himself? But at the same time -- it's still okay to pretend to bribe the replay official. Just don't strike a pose while doing it. ...

Ochocinco Aiming to Exhaust His Fine Budget in Record Time
The Sporting Blog — ... continue doubling Ocho's fee each time he slips up? That not likely the case, which is a shame, but I think I speak for all of us when I say I'd like to see how high he could go. I don't think a couple hundred grand is out of the question. Not the Ocho would sweat the money. Millions in annual salary aside, Ocho has money coming in from a highly successful iPhone app. Though there's little doubt he'll find a way to get fined because of new media.
