Pretty sure the TE coach is my new favorite person ever.

Mike Brown sitting in a room talking about rosters is awesomely awesome.

Re: Hard Knocks discussion (thread might have spoilers)

I liked the show, the one thing that really ticked me off, was the moment where Brown was asking if they can move someone from defense to tight end. Are the Steelers doing that?

I seriously laughed at how absurd that scene was. Mike Brown asking a room full of NFL coaches if they think a player can move positions and every coach knowing no matter what they say it wont matter.

Ditto Marvin Lewis sitting silently while Brown leads the meeting. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

FWIW, I'm not a Bengals fan, and I loved the show. The TE coach is a riot, as is the OL coach making the comment about Andre Smith running with his shirt off (which rocked).

I also loved that Chad Johnson has a giant painting of himself in his house. Comedy GOLD!

Can't wait for next week's episode!

I love how cheap the Bengals charge players for a TV set, can't get much cheaper than that.

John Thornton was on with Lance today. Lance asked him about that, and he didn't think it was a big deal. He said that kind of thing varies from team to team, some teams are set up in condos, others are in hotels, others like the Bengals are set up in spartan dormitories. Players can bring their own TVs.

Child Please!!

My favorite part of the show watching Chad giving his explanation of his favorite new term.

Episode 2 tonight!

They're supposed to cover Carson/Jordan Palmer, his ankle injury, some with Maualuga, and talk about Kenny Watson being cut.

Carson's "hand problem" was one of the funnier things I've seen in a while.

This show just keeps getting better.

Re: Hard Knocks discussion (thread might have spoilers)

For those of you who are into such things:

Chad Ochocinco's Twitter: http://twitter.com/OgoChoCinco
Chad Ochocinco's Live Show: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/the-ocho-cinco-show

Highlights to look for in the latest Ochocinco show include:
- Chad broadcasting live from the hotel as he looks for his room, asking himself aloud "Where is room 1080?" (or whatever number it was)
- Chad's hotel room phone ringing as fans watching live start to call the room number.
- Chad discussing his latest merchandising opportunities with potential for "Child Please" T-Shirts
- Chad saying he would whoop Shaq in a fight, a football catching contest and free-throw shooting contest.

I know Mr. 85 is a bit of a polarizing figure, but I love this kinda stuff. It's real, and it's fun.
