Retired NFL player Chad Johnson, who spent most of his career with the Cincinnati Bengals, reacted to news that his “neighbor Roger” got arrested by the FBI early Friday morning in their Fort Lauderdale neighborhood.

“I’ve only seen that shit in movies,” he said in a tweet, complete with a humble brag about his “morning jog.”

  1. Years ago I was getting the bikes off the car outside a bed and breakfast on a residential street in Montreal and suddenly a million cop cars swarmed up, screeched to a stop, and the cops all started jumping out and getting behind open doors as they pointed guns at a house down the street. It was so unreal I said to my girlfriend, “We should probably get up on the porch.” :smile: Turns out it was a big drug raid. No shots fired and the rest of the trip was relatively free of drawn weapons in view.

    Interesting displacement of “to”.

  3. I don’t want to see ANY movie Roger Stone has been in…

  4. What are the odds on that!!! Living right next door to somebody for-who-knows-how-many-years, yet never having laid eyes on them… but having caught Get Me Rodger Stone on Netflicks

  5. Watched it happen on my street last year: neighbor kid pulled his car out of the driveway, immediately surrounded by cop cars, they haul his scrawny but out of the vehicle, clap the cuffs on and take him away. He had drugs and a gun in his vehicle. That ain’t never happenin’ to me if I can help it, no sirree!!
