He lost his golden mohawk and now, unless Chad Johnson prevails on appeal, the colorful Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver is going to lose some pesos as well.

The league has fined Johnson $5,000 for wearing "Ocho Cinco" on a Velcro nameplate across the back of his uniform jersey before last Sunday's loss to the Atlanta Falcons. "Ocho Cinco," signifying his uniform No. 85, is the name by which Johnson said he wanted to be called the day leading up to the game.

They showed Carson Palmer ripping the name off the jersey and he seemed pretty pissed

Ocho Cinco is one of the few reasons I have ANY interest in the NFL. He's a ray of sunshine in an otherwise homogenized product.

Too bad there aren't college games on sundays.
