Chad Ochocinco was relatively quiet with the New England Patriots last season. But the newly signed Miami Dolphins wide receiver sent a warning to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell on Twitter on Monday: Get ready, the old Ochocinco is back. He tweeted: "@nflcommish Dad... I love u but I will be a problem this year.. all fine money this year can be collected from @MiamiDolphins #management." The NFL has repeatedly punished Ochocinco for his antics. In 2009, the receiver was fined $20,000 for pretending to bribe a referee and, weeks later, $30,000 for wearing a fake poncho and sombrero after scoring a touchdown. His many fines include one for $10,000 in 2003 for pulling out a sign reading, "Dear NFL, PLEASE don’t fine me AGAIN!!!!!" Source: Sports Illustrated
Well if he is fined for his touchdown celebrations then the Dolphins will be cool with that, at least they are scoring...lol
I'd be willing to bet thats exactly what they told him in contract negotiations..."Chad, you come score us some TD's and you can do whatever you damn well please in the endzone, and we got the fine covered for ya son. Just get in that god**mn endzone."
Joe Philbin can't be happy right? If he put this much effort into studying the playbook, he might still be in New England...
