Ochocinco earns reserve spot on MLS team

After a five-day tryout proved that he was a good teammate who lacked enough soccer skills, NFL star Chad Ochocinco got what he was hoping for Tuesday — a spot on the reserve team for Sporting Kansas City.

Now he'll work out a couple of times a week with the MLS team's reserve squad, which is what he was hoping for all along.

"This is so awesome I'm an honorary member of SportingKC and can train with the reserve team as long as I want," Ochocinco said in a tweet. "Totally awesome ILuvKC."


I guess this is what you get to do when you are rich and famous. Suck at soccer and get a spot on the Wizards' reserve team...

This sport hasn't been interesting for probably 5 years or so. ..

Thanks for the comment, Pierre.

I think that everyone's missing something obvious here- while Chad's soccer skills may be limited he is an accomplished wizard and almost certainly aced the magic skills portion of the trial.
