Carson Palmer and Chad Ochocinco: A Heartfelt Letter from QB To WR

Chad,
What has happened to us?  I feel like I don’t know you anymore.  I know we have had our differences over the years, but who doesn’t?
When I first moved to Cincinnati, you and T.J. caught my eye.  Despite having almost nothing in common, I was drawn to you.  People say opposites attract, right?
I told T.J. we could be friends.  At first, he didn’t mind that you were my No. 1 guy.  It worked pretty well for a couple of years.  However, T.J.’s feelings grew stronger, and he wanted more.  He wanted something that I couldn’t give him.
I dedicated myself to you, Chad.
We have had our ups and downs.  When I hurt my elbow in 2008, the real pain came from watching you play with someone else.
Last year, a number of younger guys joined us.  I will admit to temptation but swear to my loyalty.  Chad, I couldn’t jeopardize our connection with someone fresh out of college.
