Cincinnati receiver Chad Johnson is making his point that he wants to be traded by skipping the Bengals’ voluntary workouts this week.

OK, Chad, you made your point. The Bengals aren’t going to trade you. When the mandatory minicamps come around, get back to work.

Many people don’t like Chad Johnson and his ego, but I’ve always found him entertaining, and he’s always backed up his ego with good play. With this stunt, he’s risking lumping himself in with Terrell Owens as selfish malcontents.

Get over yourself, Chad. Besides, if you did get traded and didn’t end up with the same number, you risk having to change your nickname to Ocho Ocho. That’s just too silly.
