There Goes the Neighborhood: TO Joins Ocho in Cincy

Terrell Owens finds a home

Don't look now, but Terrell Owens signed a one-year deal with none other than the Cincinnati Bengals. Of course. It's a match made in heaven. TO's deal is reportedly worth $2 million with the chance to earn another two mil through incentives.

At least one person is happy to see him

You have to wonder what Carson Palmer thinks about this now that he has two of the NFL's biggest sideshows split out wide for him.

I mean, isn't this just adding grease to a grease fire? These two guys have been buddies for a while and now they'll be sharing the field together, but I can't see them sharing the limelight nearly as easily.

Ocho's going to be whining if he isn't getting his looks and we all know how Owens reacts when things aren't going his way. I guess it's a decent signing at this price for Cincy, but I'm not sure it's going to be worth the turmoil. For the record, Owens had 829 receiving yards with five TDs last year with Buffalo.

Ochocinco Strikes Again

Cincy wideout makes another bold claim

Chad Ochocinco has a reputation of being a great interview and he gets such a reputation by making comments like he did the other day on the Dan Patrick Show.

When asked about whether he expected to wear a Super Bowl ring or a wedding ring first Ochocinco replied "A Super Bowl ring. I believe that Super Bowl ring will be this year."

When one is not enough

And as for that other ring?

“I just talked to Pat Riley,” Ochocinco announced. “When I see the ends, I’ll be coming off the bench for the Heat. I can average 10 points per game. I might be the first player to get two rings in one year.”

Ochocinco had some pretty solid numbers last season, piling up more than 1000 receiving yards and nine TDs for Cincinnati.

NFL News and Notes: NYC Super Bowl and Dancing With the Stars

The Super Bowl is coming to the Big Apple

Bring on a Snow Bowl in 2014! For the first time ever, the NFL's Super Bowl will be hosted by a city that usually sees sub-50 degree weather in February. It was thought that New York's bid would be little more than a lay-up, but it took four rounds of voting to bring in the final decision.

This is just so overdue. Football's played in all sorts of elements all year long, so to settle it all without weather being a factor was a corporate joke. I'm actually a little surprised the bigwigs didn't drag their collective heels a little longer on this on.

Watch that first step, Ocho

Cincinnati Bengals WR Chad Ochocinco has been swooning all the ladies on Dancing With the Stars for the last little while, but reportedly sat out the series finale following a workout injury. Ocho tweeted that he didn't stretch before trying a 420-pound squat. Sounds like a whole lotta La Bamba, to me.

The Bengals are set at +4000 to win the 2011 Super Bowl.
