Bengals Receiver Chad Ochocinco is Staying Busy, But Still Dancing

Comments (1)

You'd think being on one of the nation's top-rated TV shows would keep Cincinnati Bengals receiver Chad Ochocinco busy, but apparently it's not enough. Ochocinco is in the middle of competing on ABC's 'Dancing With the Stars' but decided to head back to Cincinnati to work out with his team and, at the same time, try to cover the NFL draft for his little news network thing, OCNN. But don't worry, he's still taking the dancing thing pretty serious. He's bringing his dance partner, Cheryl Burke, along with him so he can continue to practice while on the road. That's a good thing because the judges on the show didn't like his last performance.

"I liked it," Ochocinco told the Associated Press. "I don't know what's wrong with the judges. They're tripping. I don't pay any mind, because I'm enjoying it. It's something new for me."

His news network, OCNN, is sponsored by Motorola and features Chad being Chad along with other NFL players helping him out for content. Ochocinco just recruited New York Jet cornerback Darrelle Revis to help him cover the draft in New York, even though Revis shut him down when their teams played each other last season.


"A lot of people are going to see this continue to take off and get bigger and bigger," Ochocinco said. "Revis is one of the best cover guys in the NFL right now. The whole point is I want the same type of coverage when it comes to giving the news and letting his following know what's going on. It's going to be interesting."

The NFL draft begins tonight.
