I know some people don't like his antics... but he plays a game for a living... his special skill is catching a ball... I find it amusing

You know, in spite of all the drama he causes, I think this is pretty funny. He brought 4 fans to the game, tickets on him, just for the chance at this happening. He made their day and had a pretty funny and fortuitous celebration that he made out of it. I enjoy the showmanship. Football is entertainment after all.

I really question Ocho's motivations. If the cameras weren't around, I bet he'd lose interest and give show business a shot... or be busing tables at Bob Evans. On HBOs Hard Knocks, his entire life outside of practice revolved around twitter and his computer broadcast. These antics are in good spirit in comparison to Owens and the Pacman Jones' of the league. But in the business of winning Super Bowls, I'd rather have a professional with love for the game.
