(on what kind of cars he'll get for his offensive line)
I never promised cars or anything like that. They said they wanted cars..I've got to think of something nice. I gave them 55 inch flatscreen TVs last year, so I'm not sure. I've got to do something better than TVs.

(on giving 110 inch TVs for going 2000 yards)
Naw, them expensive!

WTH? Pretty sure he promised them cars.

yea i distinctly remember him promising cars.

cmon cj, no one likes a promise breaker. but of course the liklihood of him breaking 2000 yds is slim to none.

Slim to none?

Come on man

he would have to go over 130 yds rushing in the next 7 games.

its possible with cj definately but cmon man seriously?

so if he misses the 130 yds one week he will have to work extra hard the following week.

now i will gladly retract my statement if he goes completely man on a team and breaks 300 yds on a team and takes aps most yds in one game record.

FROM some reason i really see him puting up 300 yards in a game this season .. and that means adrain will have to take a back seat

Yup

Here it is: http://www.tennessean.com/article/20091104/SPORTS01/91104068/Chris-Johnson-promises-cars-for-Titans-linemen-if-he-hits-2-000

He said that he never said he’d buy them cars- he said that THEY said they WANTED cars if he got 2000 yards. But, from the above:

"It’s a goal of mine," he said. "It’s really a goal of the offensive linemen because I told them if I get to 2,000 yards I’d buy them all a car. They want me to get 2,000 yards more than I want to get it.’’

He says he'd buy them all a car ...

… so, he could mean that he’s buying one car for all of them to share. I’m sure the O-line will be bickering all the time about who gets to drive the Civic this coming week.

Technically, there’s not a “promise” in his statement. Now, had he said I’ve promised to get them all a car if I reach 2000 yrds, or some variation of that .. then that’d be an all out promise. I guess it’s so close, it’s really just splitting hairs. lol

maybe he meant really nice hot wheels

oh noes!

Don’t waffle on the reward right before the big Monday night game!

If he's got job and a $149

then he can head on down to Carnival Kia! A please / don’t you leave / till you see that guy who openly flaunts child labor laws.

haha

somehow that commerical seems to show 33 1/2 times when the Titans game is on tv.

by captainbojangles on Nov 19, 2009 5:43 PM CST up reply actions

It sounds like a promise to me. If he meets the goal, then he has a lot of thanking to

do and a car would probably be about right. He doesn’t need to buy Porshe’s just a decent car. My son came home today and said he won a bet at school with a friend, but the friend is trying to get out of it. A carton of milk was the stakes. I know the reward in his bet is really nothing but its about owning up to a bet or in this case a promise to buy a car. Do the right thing CJ.
