Shaun Smith, Chad Ochocinco With A Pleasant Twitter Exchange

PrintKansas City Chiefs DE Shaun Smith had a Twitter exchange with Cincinnati Bengals WR Chad Ochocinco starting last night and moving into Monday apparently regarding Smith's placement in Ochocinco's year-old book.
Let's start with Smith's tweet on Sunday night to Ochocinco:
We're not sure precisely what he's referring to but there is a passage in Ochocinco's 2009 book -- "Ocho Cinco: What Football And Life Have Thrown My Way" -- that gives us a clue. Smith reportedly claimed that Ochocinco took a swing at Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis at halftime of a January 2006 playoff game. Smith was on the Bengals at the time. Here is the reference in Ochocinco's book on pages 47-48:
"Yeah they had to restrain me, but I was just excited. I wasn't going to fight with anybody. I just wanted to make sure they knew what I thought about how to win this game. It's our biggest game and I gotta do what I can do to win this game. That's all I'm thinking. I gotta do whatever. Now, whoever said I swung at someone, they just don't know. They don't understand. It's not like I was Shaun Smith taking a swing at Brady Quinn in Cleveland. I mean, taking a swing at your quarterback? Yeah, Shaun's a genius. That'll help him keep a job."
So there's some sort of history between the two. Smith got no response from Ochocinco last night but Monday afternoon he again referenced his name appearing in Ochocinco's book -- but he phrased the question in a way that he'd probably like to take back (and did try to take back):
Smith has since deleted that tweet. Here is Ochocinco's response a few minutes later:
Smith was accused twice of grabbing an opponent below the belt. He was fined the second time which he appealed and won. Smith continues in response to Ochocinco:
The "truth" about the locker room is the bit above about Smith saying Ochocinco punched Lewis. Ochocinco's next response shows he's lightened up a little bit as he asks for a playoff ticket:
And Smith's responses:

Doubt we hear anything publicly from the Chiefs on this
But Smith isn’t making himself look good. Twitter exposes the stupidity of some of these guys, ala Larry Johnson.

Priceless
When Smith thanks Carson and the other guy, reciever i assume, for beating the Chargers. No Ocho or TO equals victory.
Let me appologize for my i-pad. It spells words wrong, leaves replies in the wrong spot frequently, and sometimes forgets to post my message. With that out of the way gochiefsgo and #58 will always be king!

I’m tempted to say the same thing: “Nothing good can happen on twitter” — if it weren’t for all the neat posts by folks like Glenn Dorsey and Eric Berry about appreciation for fans and what not.

I am not sure how many tds Ocho has this year
But I think Smith could pass him if we hand it to him every time we are on the gaol line this week against the Raiders!

I love Shaun Smith, but he's a loudmouth
always has been, always will be. We gotta take the bad with the good with him…..at least he isnt dropping this on fans or bragging about how much more money he makes than they do……yeah, the f word is bad, but this exchange is loudmouth player to loudmouth player…..not anywhere near the same degree of douchebaggery as 2.7 IMO.
and the Chiefs put the HAMMER DOWN!!!!
Yeah, at least he wasn’t talking crap on his own team like LJ. Gotta love Smith, but he should learn to shut his mouth sometimes though.

I believe he was referencing Ochostinko's pending admission to the Film Actors Guild
y’know, that whole reality show circuit chad’s been working has him thinking he’s all hollywood now.

Or maybe it does — you can’t always understand what he’s trying to say.

Jeez
I guess the first tweet was somewhat in line, but the rest? C’mon Shaun, don’t put that out for the world to see… text message him directly or something. Damn.

he’s usually pretty complimentary of the fans and saying funny stuff. Not sure why he let this whole thing get out of hand.

Bengals game of the year yesterday with out TO and Ochocinco is pure LOLZ
I was wanting to rub it in their overly smooth, moisturized faces. Glad Shaun Smith is doing it for me.

People need to get off there phones and come back to reality.
You see groups of kids together and not one of them are talking to each other, their on the damn phone. Not to mention the idiots who drive and text or talk, those cameras at intersections should snap a shot at every car and if their on the phone they should be fined.

More cameras setup to survey the general public – yikes. We may as well all go set in prison. No freedom in this country and what little we have is getting smaller.

The cameras are there now.
So why not use them to do something thats really needed? You speak of freedom yet we get a ticket for not wearing our seat belt which should be our choice, and people who do anything on their phones while driving are endangering our lives. Those same phones are just one of the distractions that are used while our freedom is slowly taken away. Rant over!

hate to see all this drama when we just clinched an AFC west championship playoff spot.
last thing we need. we have to have our heads on straight for the rest of the stretch.

Shaun is obviously an APer who just forgot to put the @ at the end of his sarcasm font, jeez

I agree with that, but my point was
what triggered smith to twitter about this – almost 2 years after the book came out? Did he just get around to reading it?
Funny!
Maybe his mom reads him a chapter every night before bed and they just got to the chapter with this topic
If I had to presume, it was stuck in his craw then last night's game gave him a reason to reign shit upon Chad

Kind of a strange time to vent.

Reminds me...
of all the Chiefs fans consumed with the lack of media attention, rather than just enjoying the win and the AFC West title.
YAAAAAY! Now you go, lady!
I am enjoying the win and title.
But damn…it does get old that you flip around channels at night after a big win and 75% of what you find on TV is about Giants vs Packers or Philly vs Minn weather.
Minn and Dallas are the ones driving me nuts. I cannot get over how two teams as bad as these this year are still getting the amount of prime time coverage they are.
allowed?

People only fuel Ochocino's fire when they respond to the dumb shit he does
That is all this guys wants – to say stuff to get people fired up and pay attention to him. The best thing that could ever happen is if the media and other people would ignore him. That goes for TO also.
Difference is...
Ocho doesn’t know we exist, so we’re not really feeding him.
YAAAAAY! Now you go, lady!
Hey Shaun, You are a KANSAS CITY CHIEF now...
GROW THE F—- UP! All that BS is perfectly accepted and typical in Cinci, but here in KC, we rise above.

This is called publicity.
How many of you even knew there was a book written before this back and forth between them? Well you do now. It’s all just a publicity stunt to get book sales up.

So Shaun Smith (2 years after the book came out)
is working with Ocho to get his book rating up? Timing still doesn’t make since to me.
Should the fact that we haven't won more than 3 games in a row this year
mean that we should try to lose the Raiders game? Then we can start our 3 game winning streak in the playoffs
i don't want a three game winning streak...i want a four game streak

Probably.
But it’s still kind of ugly. Chiefs usually aren’t a part of crap like that.
YAAAAAY! Now you go, lady!
i understand, but smith is doing fine
Threatening legal action no lack of integrity or judgment to me. Smith and Ocho not much different than a couple of shopowners feuding over best position in a mall. Now Tom Cable the (alleged) wifebeater is a true integrity problem. Even so, NFL never even fine him for hitting his asst coach. So I’m happy w/Chiefs. Players enjoying their money in legal ways, maybe mixed w/minor judgment errors. But appears no ego problems yet at KC. We’ll see.

2 former teammates talking smack
They’re just having fun doing what they love to do.
This is much to do about nothing.
couldn't have said it better.
We know it could be a little more than that between them, and it might not be, but who cares. Just like you said, and I hope I expressed above too, “much to do [ado] about nothing”.
