nd because I like to see someone stick it to naysayers, even when I don’t particularly like that someone.

You might have heard that Cincinnati Begnals wide receiver Chris Henry died in an accident this week. His teammate Chad Ochocinco decided to wear Henry’s #15 on Sunday in his honor. The problem was that this was Ocho-cinco, the player who legally changed his last name to his nickname after the league fined him for wearing his nickname on his jersey. This was the player known as much for his post-touchdown hey-look-at-me antics as for his receiving ability.

The boo-birds came out and complained that Ochocinco was trying to turn Henry’s tragedy into his own story.

So he didn’t wear #15 on Sunday, but he did catch a 49-yard touchdown. As the commentators waited for some fanciful tribute, Ochocinco simply dropped to one knee and looked skyward. Because we’re used to so much more from this player, his inaction spoke volumes to both his fans and his detractors.
