First Ray Lewis, now Ochocinco

Ray Lewis was unavailable to the media today but Bengals WR Chad Ochocinco gave everyone enough to talk about.

Ochocinco addressed the Baltimore media via conference call today at the Owings Mills facility and discussed everything BUT some of the comments he's  made on Twitter to LeRon McClain, Willis McGahee and Ray Lewis. Earlier today, the four NFLers had some words (yes, it was three against one) about Sunday's matchup between the Ravens and the Bengals but Ochocinco insisted it was all in good fun.

"I don't want to talk about Twitter," Ochocinco said. "I want to talk about football.  Every player and I on the Ravens are friends! (I'm not poking out of love) I'm poking out of fear. It's gonna be smash mouth football. The only game I really get excited for is the Ravens."

Ochocinco also said he couldn't wait to take Ray Lewis' head off on Sunday but then took a moment to praise linebacker Terrell Suggs.

"That damn Terrell Suggs is a beast," Ochocinco said. "He's all over the place. Secondary, they play very solid. Ray's all over the place. Haloti Ngata, [BLEEP], he might be damn near the best D-tackle in the game right now, based on what I'm seeing. They've looked damn good on film."
