As the tug-o-war between the Cincinnati Bengals and receiver Chad Johnson continues with the piece of the rope with the strip of an old T-shirt tied around it not moving from the midpoint between the two sides, the Bengals have scored a major victory among the other players on the team. Per a league source, coach Marvin Lewis won back the locker room with his Tuesday verbal *****-slapping of Johnson. “He’s stated without an opportunity to go to a different team and a new contract, he wasn’t going to play,” Lewis said to the media two days ago. “I think he’s a man of his word. He says he’s not going to play, so don’t play.” http://www.profootballtalk.com/2008/04/24/marvin-wins-back-the-locker-room/
