Thread: Chad Johnson beats horse in run for charity

Chad Johnson got a head start without having to jump offside, and beat his coverage to the goal line again.

The Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver was waiting at the finish line when Restore the Roar arrived at the end of his one-eighth-mile gallop. That's right: Johnson raced a horse Saturday and easily won.

Johnson was spotted a 100-meter lead -- roughly about half the distance the horse had to cover in the race for charity. And when it was over, Johnson, as usual, was anything but humble. He sounded ready to take on boxing, basketball and NASCAR.

"Floyd Mayweather, you're next," Johnson said. "I want to fight you. I'd like to take Kobe and LeBron one-on-one. Jeff Gordon, we can take a couple laps. ... Now it's my time to take over the race world."

The 4-year-old colt's jockey, P.J. Cooksey, rode a horse that beat former Bengals receiver Cris Collinsworth in 1993. She sounded more impressed with Johnson's speed.

"He's quick," Cooksey said. "He's a fast man. That was phenomenal. When I looked over at him, all I could see were his legs; they looked like a windmill. He was a blur. I was beat bad."

Cheater

Some of these loud mouths grind my gonads.
This guy cracks me up, he talks shit all the time and does his best to back it up.
Funny stuff, especially in the offseason.

that I would like to see......

He was spotted a good chunk of distance, and the horse is getting older, but impressive none the less.

When I read the first part of the title "Chad Johnson beats horse", the first thing that popped into my head was Mongo punching the horse in "Blazing Saddles.

everyone likes chad. he talks crap but usually its just funny stuff and hes not being arrogant. and then he backs it up. and when he dosnt he admits it.

we often beat a dead horse around here for days at a time. Is there any way we can set up a charity to benefit from that?
