Bengals WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh

Sporting News, The,  Oct 7, 2005  by Katie Koss

Worst nickname: People always want to call me Pretty Boy or Pocahontas because of my hair. I would probably say Pocahontas is the worst.

Favorite video game: Madden. But I can't play with the Bengals until the makers of Madden give me the ratings I deserve.

Hidden talents: Basketball, pool. I like to play pool a lot. I can sing. Any song that has a nice little hook. Some R. Kelly, some Keith Sweat. Old school Keith Sweat, not new school.

Pregame ritual: I'm always late. When I have to Re out on the field like say for instance I have to go out at 12:02, I'm always late--12:03, 12:04. Always.

Guilty pleasure: Candy. I love it. It's going to get me fat when I'm done playing.

Worst job I've had to do: I never had a job growing up. But I asked my uncle for some money one day, $200. He told me if I would do something in his backyard--pull weeds--he would give it to me. I started, and I had to pay a friend to finish up.
