Chad Johnson wants out of Cincinnati and out of his number 85 jersey. Now city radio station WGRR is giving Cincinnati Bengals fans a chance to express their opinion about Johnson and his comments about playing for the Bengals. It's called the 103.5 WGRR "85 Trade Off."

On Tuesday, April 29, Cincinnati Bengals supporters can bring their Chad Johnson jersey to Koch's Sporting Goods on Fourth Street from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and WGRR will swap them for a pair of playoff tickets to see the winning Cincinnati Cyclones hockey team.

Traded-in number 85 jerseys will go to charity and fans who donate their jerseys will be in the running to win a jersey of their choice from a local sporting goods store.

    Set them afire - I'm for that. Somehow, I just don't think he probably cares though.

    What ever happened to putting rumors in the rumors section?..................
    How about instead of "rumors" they call it, "small insignificant facts nobody really cares about?"

    They would have offered bengal tixs but no one would have shown up to trade down. I hope his big EGO gets him what he deserves. A spot on a Canadian football team.

    Hey Doug, he's their best athlete, not their best football player. The Dude in the Mascot uniform is their ace player. They are saving him for the playoffs, 2051 playoffs

    They shoulda made the trade with Washington when they had the chance both teams woulda benifited. Cincy is trying to hard ball with there best player when without him I doubt they win a game. As far as the jerseys I doubt Chad cares since he wont be wearing a Cincy jersey again anyway

    Although JonY you make a good point with Washington, since they buy anything else they want. He is still a " ME " player and it's like asking someone to buy a jar of the POLIO virus off you.
