Ochocinco says he’ll take a pay cut for T.O.

Bengals receiver Chad Ochocinco, whose quest to get out of Cincinnati in 2008 fundamentally arose from a desire to get more money, now says that he’ll take a pay cut to get receiver Terrell Owens to town.

Ochocinco made the comments to a citizen journalist while leaving Roscoe’s House of Chicken ‘n’ Waffles in Los Angeles, and the comments made their way to TMZ.com.

Bob Glauber of Newsday reported earlier today (in the portion of his article that we can see without prying open our change purse) that Ochocinco is the only person in the organization interested in T.O.

And though it might make sense for Chad to enlist quarterback Carson Palmer to the cause, Chad says during the video and he and Palmer don’t get along in the offseason.

Maybe it’s because Carson is focused on getting ready for football season, and Chad is focused on doing things other than getting ready for football season.
