Don't know how this arrest will pan out, but up to that point I don't understand why anyone would bash Chad/Ocho.*

*(Even though I'm glad Vinny wasn't able to trade multiple 1st rounders for him, a while back. Thank goodness the Bengals turned us down.)

His act gets annoying after a while. Just play ball. Marrying reality stars, having multiple tv shows, constant twittering, putting on HOF jackets after you score...all that is all good when you can still get open and put up numbers. Now his skills have eroded and no one cares about his act anymore. It's a distraction that Philbin wasn't going to tolerate.
