Bengals Chad Ochocinco's 'Bribe' Won't Draw Attention Of NFL

Chad Ochocinco may not draw scrutiny from the NFL for his tongue-in-cheek attempt to bribe an official along the sideline in the Bengals' defeat of the Ravens. As officials reviewed a would-be Ochocinco catch, the Bengals' colorful receiver borrowed a $1 bill from someone near the Bengals bench and tried to chase down a receiver. Ochocinco admitted after the game it was done in fun, as officials ruled the catch was no good. "I was just being me," he told NFL Network, "... to bribe the ref and make sure he was going to give us that call. "I wasn't going to do it for real."

He had a dollar in his hands and was trying to give it to the refs to get out of a penalty, it was hilarious.

I doubt he expected it to work after all it was just a dollar

I actually believe he did a dollar to make sure it wouldn't work and cost him and his team even more than just a reversed call

I'm surprised they aren't doing anything about it honestly. Not that they should because they def. should not, but they are usually douche bags about this stuff.

I think they should fine him. He was trying to cheat..

really though, if the NFL would fine him it would be dumb. I think the refs know he was being himself and that he wasn't really expecting it to do anything. I think it is funny that he did this.
