Bengals WR Chad Ochocinco Fined $30,000 For Latest Celebration

The NFL fined Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco $30,000 for wearing a sombrero after he scored a touchdown during Sunday's win over Detroit, according to an NFL source. In a letter the NFL sent this week to Ochocinco, the league wrote, "During the second quarter of the Bengals qame, you were observed gesturing for, and then wearing, a decorative poncho and sombrero in the bench area. ...Compounding your violation is the fact that your actions were premeditated and deliberate. Prior to the game on your publicly accessible Twitter account, you posted the following: '@adam_schefter what I've planned for today will get me fined when I score but it's so worth it.'"

How many pesos is that?

 

Wow that's a ridiculous amount of money for having fun.

 

I admire Chad's clear disregard for the No Fun League's rules. That being said, if everyone was doing it I'd probably be sick of it.

 

Agree pc.

But Chad just knows how to have fun without hurting others feelings, that's what I think I like about his celebrations so much, say as compared to TO's...

 

NoFunLeague Sucks!

 

Haha, Chad's celebration plan for next week. He sent this to Adam Schefter on Twitter.

 

Yeah that's gonna be a fine...

:icon_lol:

 

This guy has money to burn, and I can't say i dont enjoy it.
haha

 

Only 20 thousand less then what adams got for actually doing a rod move.

 

Are you talking about the most recent Adams occurrence?

 

Yes vs tuck

 

That's a pretty big fine, glad he got it.

 

only 20k.. like that isn't a lot of money or anything..

 

:rofl: damn No Fun League at it again, he didn't delay the game or use any NFL props for his celebration

why is he getting fined again?

 

Because he's hurting "the integrity of the game"

 

does he have a third middle finger?

 

He could have spent more of that on his guests to his next shopping spree,
