Bengals End Chronic Losing, Begin Chronic Habit
By David Akadjian | Dealer staff writer    Wed, Dec 21, 2005
 

CINCINNATI - After winning the AFC North Division title Sunday, the Bengals refused to say what they had planned for their locker-room celebration.

"Acapulco Gold," coach Marvin Lewis was heard muttering to his offensive coordinator. When asked what this meant, Lewis refused to comment.

"We need to keep this in the family," Lewis said.

When pressed in the locker room, Carson Palmer broke into a huge grin, but remained tight-lipped.

Shane "Golden" Graham lit a small cigar that he referred to as "bluntie." A noxious cloud of blue smoke and steam hung over the room.

"I don't know," said Willie Anderson, "but I think we're going to eat out later."

The only clue was a 2-foot high plastic mortar tube standing on a bench in the locker room. But none of the Bengals would admit to fireworks.

Unable to crack the celebration mystery, we decided to ask Chad Johnson about Chris Henry's arrest for possession of marijuana.

"Hiding it in your shoe is a rookie mistake," Chad said.

Johnson then declared the interview over.

"This meeting is dreadlocked. I now declare a joint session."
