Product Description
Whats so great about Chad Johnson, #85, of the Cincinnati Bengals? Just five years into his career and he is already becoming a household name. Chad: I Cant Be Stopped is the first book about the energetic wide receiver whose zany endzone celebrations have landed him over $100,000 in fines and into the hearts of football fans nationwide. Chad is known for his flamboyant playing style and trash talking. But thats the man on camera. Who is he or rather how is he when the cameras put away? Hes a practical jokester who mailed Pepto Bismol to various Cleveland Browns players before the big game. He also wandered the halls of his high school only to be found helping painters paint his school building. Being raised fatherless left room for several different men and two very special women to shape this hyperactive class clown into the wide receiver that "no-one can cover." * Find out what really happened in the locker room at halftime during the 2005 playoff game. * Who does he call at 3 a.m. when he cant sleep? * The most important woman in his lifewhere does she live? * Whos credited for saving his football life?

CHAD JOHNSON AND TRASH TALK September 15, 2007
I LOVED THE INSIGHT THAT CHAD'S BOOK OFFERS SPORT FANS. IT'S ALWAYS A PRIVILEDGE TO GET A GLIMPSE INSIDE A CELEBRITY'S LIFE AND CHAD DOES NOT DISAPPOINT. AS FOR CHAD'S BRAND OF TRASH TALK, I'D ADVISE ANY PRO SPORTS FAN TO READ A BOOK CALLED 'TRASH TALK' BY ROBERT GUSSIN. IT'S A SPORTS COMEDY BONANZA. CHAD, HAVE YOU READ IT?
Highly recommended as an upbeat, in-depth portrait of an athlete who happens to be a positive role model. June 9, 2007
Written by "Cincinnati Enquirer" sports columnist Paul Daugherty, Chad: I Can't Be Stopped is the true-life story of National Football League superstar Chad Johnson - well known for his professional prowess, and perhaps also known for his touchdown celebrations that prompted the NFL to tighten their rules on what is considered a permissible expression of victory. Black-and-white photographs illustrate this candid story of Chad the person as well as Chad the expert football player. "Says Hue Jackson, Bengals receiver coach and one of Johnson's few confidantes, 'Chad doesn't drink or smoke. He's not a guy that has to be out among the celebrities. I don't lose sleep on Saturday nights, worrying about Chad Johnson.'" Highly recommended as an upbeat, in-depth portrait of an athlete who happens to be a positive role model.

Chad I can't be stopped, is and incredible book. I give this peice of work 5 stars. The way the author goes into complete depth and detail is amazing. Also the authors tell many stories which are told in Chad's his prospective about how he plays and performs in the football games. Also how he thinks he played in the steelers game in 2005 and his locker room breakdown in his point of veiw. Many of my favorite parts are when Bessie Mae talks about her grandson Chad and how she straitened him up and made him go to school. Apparently Chad did not like school at all. Chad says he made school harder than it needed to be but thanks to Bessie he made it through. Chad says Bessie Mae is the most important women in his life without her he wouldn't have made it. I also liked how the author included where Bessie grew up and how she wanted a better life for her children and that happened according to her family and Chad. I have to say though my favorite part is when he talks about his tuesdays and how when everyone eles is off work he's trying so hard to get better. Chad is a hero on and off the field and this book really highlights that. It also tells about Chad's journey to get where he is now which a successful star is. Chad is a hero but most importantly he mine and the Greater Cincinnati's too. GO BENGALS!!!!
