One of the foremost and most notable face in the National Football League (NFL), Chad Ochocinco, is not only know for his skills as a wide receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals, but is also famous for the controversies that he is mostly surrounded with. The latest one being a $25,000 fine slapped by the NFL for the use of Twitter during a pre-season game. As per the rules and regulations of NFL, players aren't allowed to use electronic devices during playtime and are prohibited from posting messages of social networking services 90 minutes before kick off and before the postgame media formalities are met with.
Chad on the other hand began tweeting even before the game commenced, wherein he stated, "Just talk with Kelly Washington, Desean Jackson, Geoff Pope, Hank Baskett and I caught a ball from Mike Vick, I love prw-game warm up." Then a second tweet surfaced from the player during the game time, where he said, “Man Im sick of getting hit like that, its the damn preseason shit! 1day I’m gone jump up and start throwing hay makers, #Tylenolplease.”. Even though the use of Twitter landed Chad Ochocinco in a heap of trouble, yet he used the micro blogging service to apologize to the NFL management and said,
"Dear NFL I apologize for tweeting during the game but that was 2 monthsof my Bugatti payments you just took from me,I won’t do it again. I’ve been fined by the league a substantial amount of money for tweeting, 1st time twitter hasn’t made me money but cost me money.”
