Video: Chad Johnson Getting Fired by Dolphins

August 15, 2012 by tamaratattles 11 Comments

Video shot for HBO’s Hard Knocks had leaked to the Internet showing Chad Johnson getting fired.

WOW. Nothing like getting fired on national television, complete with them showing someone cleaning out your locker.  Incidentally, Chad lied about never being in trouble before. He has had a domestic violence incident previously in 2000 just before his football career began. He got a light sentence involving some graffiti removal work release which he failed to complete until forced to by a coach after he was signed. I guess he had to show up to film this or lose his pay for the Hard Knocks show in addition to everything else. I’m not sure I could have done it for any amount of money. If I did, I would totally have used the box of Kleenex.

    anybody who follows this series knows that they regularly show players getting cut by the teams. this is the only piece of this entire drama that i believe 100%, cause the dolphins made it clear from the beginning that they were not about to put up with chad’s foolishness. both of them are such phony, moneygrubbing, fame whores, that im not certain how much of the rest of this mess is truth, and how much is a bad plan gone awry. time will tell.

    I pretty much agree with Chitown above. Some of this (perhaps all of it) is a PR stunt, some of it may be truth.

    What we have here is part fiction, part fact – I am just not sure which one is more weighted. Never underestimate someone’s drive and hunger for fame, attention and money. Think about this? What makes sense? Not much.

    Judge Judy says it best: If it doesn’t make sense then it is probably not true.

    What I do know is that Eve and Ocho were basically forgotten by pop culture until Saturday night. They swiftly drifted into oblivion post-BBW. But today they are a main focus .

    Mission accomplished.

      Maybe so. But I’m going with the occam’s razor theory on this one. I think they are both just this stupid and it’s not part of an elaborate PR stunt. As Chitown Shelley says, time will tell.

    I don’t believe it was a planned PR stunt because she ran next door and had her neighbor call the police. She obviously jetted out of there so fast she left her cell phone behind. Now he has an arrest record, lost his spot on the team, lost his reality show, getting divorced and may have to pay alimony. No…it was real.

      He won’t have to pay alimony, he wasn’t married long enough. It’s up to the judge, but the judge isn’t going to give her alimony for 6 weeks of marriage, they won’t. In fact it’s stretching it for 2 years and normally if given at 2 years it’s not for a long time. This wasn’t scripted, she found condom receipts and went ballistic, he had a bad day and didn’t want to hear it from her. And he headbut her or whatever happened. You don’t do something like this as a plot if you get fired from your job in football, the endorsements, the shows cancelled before even being put on and getting arrested. She could sue him for damages, but this guy has 3 baby mamas wanting more on child support and most of his stuff (houses and cars) aren’t paid for. He’s broke or soon to be broke.

      You’re probably right on the alimoney thing. Completely forgot about the duration of the marriage. lol

      I turned the channel on the radio this morning and caught the tail end of a female talking and crying at the same time. The female had a latin accent. The radio hosts began talking about how hard she was crying and how they thought the tears were real. They also mentioned how they thought it was strange how the lady talking felt bad for “him” and what was happening to “him” and what people were saying about “him”(whoever she was talking about.) I got the impression it was an interview that Evelyn had done and they had played a portion of it.

        That is a new promo for Oprah’s Rihanna interview. She was talking about Chris Brown. In both situatiions, all parties involved need some therapy. I say that in a kind way, when so often people take the suggestion of therapy as an insult.

    Two seconds ago I read a headline about Rhianna explaining why she felt “protective” of Chris Brown during the aftermath. I came back here to say that I may have been wrong in thinking that portion of an interview I heard this morning was Evelyn. Oh well, I got one thing right…I knew I heard an accent.

    ok, so i was watching the own network (please dont judge me), and they were showing previews of shows in their new season, and during a preview for the new iyanla vanzant life improvement or whatever show, who was there being given this big bearhug, but evelyn, the soon to be ex mrs. ochocinco, crying rivers of tears. now the question is, is iyanla using ms. evelyn, or is evelyn using ms. iyanla? and was this already in the works, or did this just come together? the name of this show is, iyanla, fix my life. no words.
