Yup, the Cincinnati Bengals, who completely ignore character traits when it comes to their roster, have signed WR Terrell Owens to a one year $2-million contract.
Owens joins the likes of Chad Johnson (now Ochocinco), Pacman Jones, and Cedric Benson. Ochocinco and Owens are cut from the same cloth as far as flamboyance is concerned; but it should be noted neither player is a threat to get into legal trouble.
Benson and Pacman are quite a different story. Pacman has been arrested for, among other things, assault, felony vandalism, disorderly conduct, public intoxication, obstruction of justice, marijuana possession, and has been linked to shootings. Actually, if you Google Pacman Jones and read up on his various charges it's actually quite amusing.
Benson has had a number of legal troubles as well, the most recent being an incident this offseason in which it's alleged he punched a bartender in the face.
Since 2000, the Cincinnati Bengals lead the NFL in arrests.
I hate to admit it, but this is my favorite team.
