    CINCINNATI -- Chad Johnson is dreaming of a whitetail Christmas.



    The Bengals receiver suggested Tuesday that he has a special touchdown celebration planned for Cincinnati's game on Christmas Eve, one that will top his Riverdance, his end zone putt and his sideline proposal from earlier this season.

    A surrogate reindeer, perhaps?

    "On the highway, I hit a deer," Johnson said Tuesday, insisting he was serious and that the animal wasn't hurt. "I kept him. He's at home in the garage. I'm going to use him for the celebration this weekend. He's a prop. They might suspend me for the last game, but I think this one is worth it."

    Even if Johnson is serious -- and, with him, there's no telling -- coach Marvin Lewis would certainly put his foot down. So Johnson's scheme may never get beyond the talking stage.

    He wasn't joking about his desire to come up with a celebration that will keep fans talking long after the Bengals' last regular-season home game.

    Fans in Detroit booed when he merely handed the ball to an official following his touchdown during a 41-17 victory Sunday that clinched the AFC North title. It was only the second time this season that he didn't celebrate a touchdown -- the other came when the officials needed time to decide if he had scored, spoiling the moment.

    "But this Saturday, I'll be back to my old self," he said. "You can look forward to the celebration being part of something that has to do with Christmas. It's going to be fun. I might get in trouble, so I might as well let that out now. I might get in trouble for what I'm going to do, but it's worth it."

    Johnson was excited by the thought of getting a deer into the end zone routine. His Riverdance brought him national attention as a hoofer. Now, he's fixated on hooves.

    "This is going to be the greatest celebration of all time, man," he said. "I actually use an animal."

    This guy is crazy, but I like him. I hope I get to see this.

    I'm gonna guess he just breaks out some cheap, fake antlers that he will affix to his helmet in some way.

    I wonder if he will do a T-O (time out) sign because he will be mocking TO?

    I also have him on my FF team. He and Larry Johnson have carried my team to the championship (which is this weekend).

    I wonder if they will play any football between the celebrations. I'm glad to see the focus is on the right thing. It looks like he has his priorities straight.

    I'd say winning the AFC North is a pretty good thing....CJ is one of the top receivers in the leauge, I was with ya early on, I thought he would get distracted with the touchdown dances, but hes proven to me over the course of the past couple seasons hes a great receiver.

    He's gotta score to do his dancing, so I don't think it is distracting him.

    I think the No Fun League should stop worrying about end zone celebrations. Teams have cheerleaders, music, video screens with entertainment. I say let em do what they want short of a fireworks display for 30 seconds or so, if they go over time limit go ahead and penalize em 15 and fine em.

    But in places with woeful ass teams (Hou, SF, Det) the antics of a CJ might be the highlight of the afternoon.

    some celebrations are pretty stupid, but Chad's always got good ones, and he's genuinely funny. Anyone catch his Geico quip? Man I was rolling on that one

    He probably won't. I have him on my FF team and every week he guarantees a spectacular celebration, he doesn't get in the end zone, but that leaves TJ wide open becuse Chad is usually double teamed all game.

    To all the haters, Chad is one of the best WRs out there. He works hard and is quite a talent. If you are going to call Chad out as to not having is priorities in order need to actually watch some football.

    Chad is so cool man. I love guys that that. he is good, AND he knows how to have fun. Whenever the bengals are on, i watch them just because i wanna see him do something crazy. I hope he scores 3 or 4 times.

    Maybe it will be something like the incident in Tommy Boy, where the deer woke up from its coma and tore up Richard's (David Spade) car.
