Unlike seasons past, Bengals earn attention

I grew up a Cincinnati Bengals fan, but lost interest over the years because I always felt owner Mike Brown treated the club as if it were his personal fantasy football team.

Why spend money on a general manager or a squadron of scouts when that would only take away some of the satisfaction of compiling a roster yourself and competing for the high stakes of the NFL?

Nevermind that they haven’t won since facemasks were fastened to helmets, the streamlined operation meant more fun for Brown as he engaged in his hobby at our expense.

But the Bengals’ 5-2 start has gotten my attention. Carson Palmer is still one of the best quarterbacks in the league and he has surprised me with his mobility. After tanking last season, Chad Ochocinco appears committed this year (maybe the Bengals were right in not caving to his trade demands).

Meet Chad Ochocinco, buy his book

If there was ever a perfect day to meet Bengals wide receiver, diva, camera hog and author Chad Johnson/Chad Ochocinco/Esteban Ochocinco, it would have to be Halloween, right?

So here’s your chance. Joseph-Beth Booksellers at Rookwood Pavilion is hosting Ochocinco on Saturday at 1 p.m., where he’ll be signing copies of his new book, “Ocho Cinco: What Football and Life Have Thrown My Way.” This is the book with the cover photo of Chad flipping the bird to the camera, or the reader, or the world, depending on your viewpoint

Chad Ochocinco talks trash via Twitter to Bears’ Cutler, Brown

Long before the team has even landed in Cincinnati for this Sunday’s afternoon skirmish against the Bengals, Chad Ochocinco is trying to fill up the Bears’ bulletin board.

In tweets to both quarterback Jay Cutler and defensive lineman Alex Brown, Ochocinco said he wants Cutler’s jersey, will torment cornerback Charles “Peanut” Tillman, and needs only 1.5 seconds to get open.

Yesterday, Ochocinco started in on Cutler [exchanges sic'd]:

@jaycutler6 tell your defense I’m gonna run circles around them, I’m mad we lost, peanut Tillman is gonna kiss da baby along with the rest’

To which Cutler responded:

@OGOchoCinco it’s only Monday. Already starting?

The exchange with Cutler continued: @JayCutler6 Jay I have to get a jump on yall, on a serious note tell Lovie to put Tillman on me all game with safety help, please!!!!

@OGOchoCinco Peanut on you with safety over top. You got it. Anything else you would like me to pass on?
