Chad Johnson has requested a one-on-one interview with me. He says I owe him $20.

Johnson not only was at practice today, he again participated in group drills with the receivers and was even first in line to do all the drills. He was smiling and laughing with his teammates.

Because I am your full-service blogger here at The Lot D, I not only got this video:

 But I also snapped still photos for use on the website.

Like this one (yeah, if you didn't notice, I never took a photojournalism class at UGA)

Anyway, Johnson decided I needed to pay for the right to take his picture.

"That's $20 for every picture," he said.

"What?"

"$20. You owe me $20"

"Um. OK, sure Chad."

"Hobson, who is that?" Johnson asked Bengals.com's Geoff Hobson.

"Trent Rosencrans," Hobson said.

"Who?" Johnson asked.

"Trent Rosecrans," I said.

"After practice, you and me, one-on-one."

"Sounds good."

"You better have my money."

"If you're asking me for money, you're barking up the wrong tree," I said.

"Oh, I've got a bark. And I'll have a tree," Johnson said.

So, practice is winding up. We'll see if I get my 1-on-1. I doubt it.
