On Cincinnati's local radio station 1530AM Homer this morning, host Alan Cutler had on attorney Eric Deters. Deters is representing a class action suit against Bengals WR Chad Johnson over a raffle that winners didn't receive their prizes.When asked about Ocho Cinco not being very bright, Deters responded:
"No not at all. Mental agility of a small soap dish."
"It's a Greek tragedy. It's a Shakespearean tragedy. It's all the talent, all the fun, the city loves him, and he just ... for no good reason at all ... turns against the entire city."
The interview starts at the 3:15 mark with Reds talk, and then it moves into the Chad Johnson trial at 7:30. Deters even speculated that he's heard rumors that Chad Johnson won't even show up for the trial and even suggested that he is struggling financially after failing to pay property taxes.
He also touches on the possibility Johnson may have perjured himself in his deposition. He also got off this blast:
"The intellectual capacity there is lacking ... I don't understand how he can understand a playbook."The trial is set for June 30th.

How does Carson Palmer have the patience to deal with ( Henry &...) this moron ? Gee, what a waste of a great quarterback, and every lineman who sweats and breaks their back blocking , so this Mo-Mo' can slide around and mess up their chances, week after week...

Chad called a soap dish by a Lawyer? Maybe they are both soap dishes-Duh.
The fans are sick of this guy leering at the cameras and shooting his mouth off.
I won't be surprized to see him in the AFL, IF they will take him. Go away Chad and take your gold teeth out to pay your bills.

As a local Cincinnati resident, it's worth noting that Eric Deters is a self-serving pain in the ass that says things like this to get his name in the paper. Ironically, the guy is essentially Chad Johnson with a law degree. I actually couldn't tell you who is more worthless to our town. If pressed I suppose All-Pro WRs are tougher to find than Jack-hole lawyers.
