Ochocinco: Me And Carson Are Like “Brokeback Mountain”

Posted by Josh Alper on June 9, 2009, 10:39 a.m. EDT
Throughout the offseason Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer made several comments indicating his displeasure with wide receiver Chad Ochocinco. “I know people are trying to say we’re mad at each other and all that, but we’re good,” he told Bengals.com. “We’re like Brokeback Mountain. I’m going to be with Carson so much in July that I’m going to be the nanny [for his new twins].” While he had nicer things to say at the end of May, the relationship between the two players was something to watch as training camp and the season unfolded.

There’s nothing to worry about, according to Ochocinco. He and Palmer are as close as a couple of cowboys riding out a cold night in the mountains.

“I know people are trying to say we’re mad at each other and all that, but we’re good,” he told Bengals.com. “We’re like Brokeback Mountain. I’m going to be with Carson so much in July that I’m going to be the nanny [for his new twins].”

Quite a change from a man who was trying everything under the sun to quit Palmer a year ago.

The lengthy interview covered many topics, but continually came back to Ochocinco’s claims of a renewed hunger after a subpar 2008 season. He said both Denzel Washington and Kobe Bryant told him to go back to having fun on the field and to stop worrying about the things he can’t control, something he vows to do for a team he calls more talented than the one that won 11 games in 2005.

He also said that his comments about not working out before the 2008 season shouldn’t be taken to mean that he tanked the season. Rather, Ochocinco says he was overconfident about his abilities and his seperated shoulder proved that he couldn’t coast and that he has no fears about returning to form because he’s been working out harder than in the past.

He also reached out to Bengals fans in an attempt to convince them that he wants to be in Cincinnati’s after past trade requests.

“I need the fans to embrace me. I know people are mad at me. I read the message boards, but I’ve apologized 85 times,” Ochocinco said. “If they can embrace me, I can spread my wings and be myself. When they’re mad at me, I don’t know if I can be myself. I’m an emotional guy. I want them to know that I love them and I want to win. I want to be on point with everybody on the team and win. I know I’ve been frustrated when we haven’t won. Maybe now when I vent, I should just do it to the fans on the message boards.”

It might just be a ploy to sell some Ochocinco jerseys, but Chad’s certainly putting on the hard sell in the last couple of weeks

Was this at his tea party with imaginary friends? Seriously, the guy has gone off his rocker.

And why the picture of Florida?

I guess it is befitting. They do say that Florida is the you-know-what of the United States.

You Clowns crack me up, you LOVE Ocho Cinco. Whenever the Bengals come to Cleveland you welcome Chad into the Dog Pound & shower him with kisses & beer.

Wow, get a clue. In no way did I refer to FL as the "armpit" of the country. Think more along the lines of a brokeback mountain reference.

I do have to say that I'm not surprised that something flew over your head though.

One of my favorite Bengal beatdowns of you Cleveland Clowns was the game just 6 months ago in Cleveland where the Bengals Shutout your Cleveland Clowns 14-0. The amazing thing about the game was that the Bengals only threw the ball like 5 times the entire game because you Clowns were completely unable to stop the run so they just just had Fitzgerald hand the ball off to Benson like over & over again, how sad for you.

That's probably why Ocho Cinco never got the ball but then again pretty much nobody got anything thrown to them, why should we throw if you can't stop the run?

Being a Bengal fan apparently means one of your favorite memories is a game when both teams were out of the playoff picture, losses actually helped their draft selection, your opponent was down to their 4th string QB in the second half, and despite the fact that your opponent turned the ball over 4 times and could not stop the run for a lame-duck coach, you only scored 2 TDs and did nothing in the second half of the game.

great communication between QB and WR....I don't blame Palmer though, I wouldn't be able to stand Mr. Ocho either.


"I just told him that unless he's picking up my mortgage for the month of July and August, he can't stay. He's not living for free. I don't need another kid around the house."
--Cincinnati quarterback Carson Palmer, after receiver Chad Ochocinco said to make up for lost time in his professional relationship with Palmer he wanted to live in Palmer's southern California home prior to training camp

Didn't see the movie - how exactly did they stay warm on those cold nights?

Interesting Bungal fact, Only one Bengals player has registered double-digit sacks since 1991.

How many winning seasons have they had since then?
