The Facts:
After a five-day tryout proved that he was a good teammate who lacked enough soccer skills, Ochocinco got what he was hoping for Tuesday -- a spot on the reserve team for Sporting Kansas City.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Now he'll work out a couple of times a week with the MLS team's reserve squad, which is what he was hoping for all along. "This is so awesome I'm an honorary member of SportingKC and can train with the reserve team as long as I want," Ochocinco said in a tweet. "Totally awesome ILuvKC." As a member of the reserve team, the six-time Pro Bowl wide receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals will not be given a contract or be paid. But soccer will be a great way to stay in shape until owners and players work out their differences and the NFL lockout is lifted.
