Crazy but not Original
Jonathan Papelbon reveals his alter ego, Cinco Ocho.
t's weird enough that Papelbon has a split personality -- what's even weirder is that he shares it with Chad Johnson, Cincinatti Bengals wideout and noted entertainer. Seriously, Papelbon couldn't think of anything better than a name Johnson gave himself last fall? For shame, Red Sox, for shame.
He could have been Johnathan Killington Closer.

It's the sports equivalent to the Pets.com spokessock. Chad Johnson rents out Ocho Cinco to other players to speak for them. Smart business move to diversify the crazy.
Umm, Johnson is Ocho Cinco, or '85.' Papelbon is Cinco Ocho, or '58.'
He has Japanese teammates: couldn't they have suggested "go hachi" or something?
