DULUTH, Ga. -- Chad Ochocinco now is going to try bull riding.

The Cincinnati Bengals receiver who earlier this year had a tryout with Sporting Kansas City of Major League Soccer, has accepted a challenge from Professional Bull Riders chief operating officer Sean Gleason to ride a bull at the LucasOil Invitational this weekend in Duluth.

Ochocinco will earn $10,000 if he rides a bull. If he can stay aboard for the required eight seconds, the PBR will give Ochocinco a new Ford F-150, as well as allow him to rename the bull.

Gleason says Ochocinco is "a gifted athlete, but bull riding is a much different sport and climbing on the back of a bull in the chutes takes a little more than Twitter confidence, let alone calling for the gate [to open]."

Anything for attention.

Here's hoping he falls off the bull and gets maimed before the rodeo clowns save his skinny black ass. I'll admit I chuckled in the beginning at some of his antics and TD celebrations but his relentless attention whoring act has grown stale. I could care less and even would prefer it if I never saw him in another NFL uniform.

A.J. Green will make Bengals fans forget all about this idiot.

meh, I think it's pretty cool. It's no different than rockslamdance's old ass getting liquored up at a bar and riding a mechanical bull.

Anything for attention.

It's sad.

I actually wonder what things Terrell Owens will do when he's no longer wanted in the NFL. Johnson is an attention whore. Owens is as well, but I think he has legitimate mental issues that goes along with his.

I'm not joking when I say I think Owens life will end via suicide.
