We’ve pretty much kept these articles limited to people making stupid comments about Mixed Martial Arts, but I think I’m going to start expanding. A bunch of people have said some pretty dumb things over the last couple of weeks. As a matter of fact, we might even do two of these today…
Anyway, how about this Larry Johnson character? For a guy, who has a season average of 2.7 yards per carry, he’s got a pretty big mouth. Here’s what he wrote on Twitter over the last couple of days:
“my father got more creditentials than most of these pro coaches. … google my father!!!!!!!”
“My father played for the coach from “rememeber the titans”. Our coach played golf. My father played for redskins briefley. Our coach. Nuthn”
Wow. I guess he’s got a right to say to say it after he ran for a whopping 49 yards on Sunday. For those who are under a rock, he’s talking about Chiefs head coach Todd Haley. He also spelled “Briefly” in a truly awesome way.
To make it even worse, he got into a pissing match with some fans on Twitter.
Jared Launius: Interesting comments by Larry Johnson ( @toonlcon ) about “coaches.” Hey LJ, is it Haley’s fault you fall when D-Linemen blow on you?
Larry: “@jaredlaunius Sorry ur a cornball n ur mom birthed u broke. But I’m cakn patna. While u work or school for 5 dollas n hour. Ha!”
Jared Launius: “Apologies. His Twitter alias is @toonicon whatever the hell that means. Probably something about spitting in women’s faces.”
Larry: “@jaredlaunius think bout a clever diss than that wit your fag pic. Christopher street boy. Is what us east coast cats call u.”
“@DrewK30 got nuthn to do wit hiring my father. But u wouldn’t know cuz u don’t play either so keep on the sideline lil gril n cheer.”
“@KD2407 then don’t reply then. Still richer then u. Keep goin. Come play our game ooops forgot u can’t.”
First off, if you are a fan, and you have nothing better to so than hate on athletes on Twitter, then you have a problem. If you have a legit question or want to send support, more power to you. That’s part of what makes Twitter so great. However, if you think that tell an athlete he sucks makes you funny or cool, you sir, are very wrong.
Second, if you are Larry in this situation, why can’t you just delete the message from the idiot that sent it and go on with your life? Yes, we know that you’re rich, but if you start telling people that you are, you end up in this class of moron that is all too common these days.
So, let’s count all the funny, bad things that are happening to Larry now.
1. He’s in hot water with his team. They told him not to show up to practice and has basically been exorcised from the Chiefs. Many reports are suggesting that he will be off the team relatively soon.
2. The Gay and Lesbian activists groups are all over him. They wanted the Chiefs and the NFL to fine him for his use of the word “fag.”
3. Everyone knows that he’s an idiot.
Is all of this worth the fact that you were frustrated with your boss? This just proves that some people shouldn’t be allowed to post your thoughts on the Internet.
