Chiefs RB Larry Johnson Starts War of Words with Fans on Twitter

Back in August I was asked to write a piece for the Washington Post on Twitter and what Roger Goodell's policy on the social networking site should be. My argument was simple - Forget the medium. Who cares if it's Twitter, a post-game press conference or a locker room interview? Treat Twitter just like you would a player speaking in any other public arena.
Here's what I said then:
It's not the enemy. Players are going to run their mouths on Twitter and they're going to run their mouths at practices, in interviews and after games like they've always done. Keep doling out the appropriate punishment for speech infractions as well as those with cell phones and the web. The players will learn it's not in their best interest to broadcast every piece of information to the world.
That last sentence? Yeah, not all players will learn it's not in their best interest to broadcast every piece of information to the world. Kansas City Chiefs RB Larry Johnson has not learned that. Here's what LJ said on Twitter last night:
"My father played for the coach from "remember the titans". Our coach played golf. My father briefley played for the redskins. Our coach. Nuthn."
That's exactly what LJ said. The post has since been deleted. I took a screen shot of the quote since I figured it would be deleted soon.
I went to bed shortly after that which means I missed the continuing war of words. LJ didn't stop there.
He went on to say "U dont stop my checks. Lmao" (Lmao = "laughing my ass off") and said fans can't play this game because they don't make as much money as him.
Perhaps the most troubling tweet was a derogatory term in regards to another fan's picture. Well, you can see in the picture above what he said. Christopher Street is a famous New York City street that is a symbol of the city's gay-pride movement.
It's disappointing and, most importantly, it's stupid. Behavior like this can warrant action from the organization.
Look, LJ, we get that you're frustrated and you want out. I hear ya. You're closer to the end of your career than the beginning. But, if/when you hit the free agent market, what's less appealing about a 30 year old back that can't average more than three yards per carry?
A 30 year old back that is a malcontent and publicly calls out the coach and the fans.
(Editor's Note: I know this is an upsetting, emotional topic so everyone please react like adults. No slurs or gratuitous language of any kind will be tolerated here.)

Either LJ decided to knock a few back last night
or he’s just lost control. He may get that money but he hasnt earned a penny this year.

He’s washed up and knows it. Charles will be the starter after the bye week.

It is a testament to what a jerk he is
that he is bitching publicly about Haley. All Haley has done is back him up in press conferences. He has also been feeding him the ball way more than he should and probably should have benched him for a Charles, Savage platoon ages ago but he hasn’t. And Larry goes out and stabs him in the back. What a moron.

That was my first thought too
That we give the ball to LJ way more than his performance warrants.

Reading what he said about the coach
didn’t really strike me as knocking the coach. Everything he said about Haley was true non the less. What he said about the fans on the other hand….

LJ runs for 1800 yards
Bowe in the pro bowl
Chiefs D finishes in the top 10 in points allowed
Chiefs 10-6

I'm So Happy
That the Chiefs decided to keep this miserable asshole who can’t even put up numbers against one of the worst run Ds in the NFL yet who is getting a huge contract.
Well played, Haley and Pioli…well played.

1. Todd Haley's going to struggle with managing his staff in his rookie year as head coach.
6. The Chiefs will go 7-9 in 2009, good for 2nd in the AFC West. Revision: We go 5-11 and finish behind Oakland.
7. Ryan Succop will not perform better in 2009 than Connor Barth did in 2008.
8. The Chiefs will have a bottom 10 defense this year.
9. RB will be a problem area this season on offense.

His words to the fans
are indefensible. No reason to try. Bottom line is that Twitter can be a good way for an athlete to connect with their fans but it can also be a way to get into some non sense like this. The same thing happened to this WWE guy Chavo Guerrero who had a couple drinks and decided to logon to twitter. He went overboard as LJ did. Nothing good can happen on Twitter after a loss. Players have pride and are frustrated and fans have a way of thinking they own the players. Look at the things said about the guy in here. If someone said those things to you, especially after a bad day, you would react too.
Again what he said is indefensible and wrong but I see how these things can happen.

I just don't get it
Is he not interested in ever playing again? All the other NFL teams are watching this and any thoughts of signing him over the offseason when he’ll surely be released are dwindling.

He's A Washed Up Jerk-Off
And all he ever cared about was his contract. Now that that carrot is gone and the team is in the toilet, there’s no reason for him to behave. At all.
I don’t know why people thought for some reason he’d be different this year.

LJ never grew up.

Put him on the Practice Squad
Until he learns what appropriate behavior is. He’s getting paid, so there is no reason why he should be upset in a rebuilding year. After all, he signed the contract, and the Chiefs never promised him a Super Bowl supporting cast.

I'm glad he said this before he got the Chiefs rushing record.
Now I hope and pray that Haley sits him for the rest of the year (or releases him) and doesn’t let him disrespect the franchise any more. I don’t want our number one back of all time to be this bad of a guy; someone who embarrasses me as a fan.

Hopefully Haley Benches Him
Crappy production sure hasn’t gotten the guy off the field…and Larry’s been hinting how much he doesn’t like Haley for a bit.
If Haley doesn’t bench him after his little outburst, I think we can officially throw Haley’s title as a “disciplinarian” in the crapper.

I thought about that and I disagree
If you bench him, then he sits and his body doesn’t take a beating.
If you play him, he bounces off the line for 1-2 yard carry.
I’d try to figure out a way to run him to the “weak” side (which isn’t saying much).
This topic has gotten sooooo old. I’m just waiting for the people to come out and blame the O-line for LJ’s poor play.
We WON the arbitration and Pioli still kept him on the roster and paid the opening day bonus. Makes no sense.

No
I agree with the other posters, while it would be good to see LJ just get used to get hammered on the field like he’s running into a brick wall every down, I’d rather see him suited up standing on the sidelines watching his replacements do work every game for the rest of the season. No reason to punish this team anymore by using him.
by timil on Oct 26, 2009 12:35 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Agreed
The point of the game is to try to win, not to punish the fans by sticking bums out there.
And, make no mistake, Larry Johnson is now a bum. He’s a garbage player who can’t get yards. He serves no more use to the Chiefs and as far as I’m concerned they might as well dump his ass to waivers and either end his career or let some other team put up with his bullshit. I don’t ever want to see the asshole in a Chiefs uniform again.

I Don't Get It Either
But it was a major screwup and frankly if Haley couldn’t figure out the guy can’t play and Pioli couldn’t figure out that he wasn’t going to be worth the salary he was getting then both of them deserve to get blasted for it.
Belichick and Parcells certainly wouldn’t have kept the guy.

Hit him where it hurts
in his precious “mine’s bigger than yours” paycheck. If players are getting fined for calling out the food at camp (whatshisname in SD), then surely a passive/aggressive swipe at the head coach warrants one. Call it “conduct unbecoming,” or “conduct detrimental,” or better yet, “conduct mentally deficient.” Hope his agent is drafting that apology letter for the gay slur to the fan.

A Suggestion
Since AP now has a press pass and is a representative of Chiefs fans maybe AP should insure Haley knows about this today. I shut down my computer after the second interception so I had no idea any of this happened and now I see all the tweets are locked. If someone has a copy of what all was said and can print them out so AP can show Haley then there should be some sort of action.
I would rather the Chiefs handle this their way before ESPN and the NFL make this out as a whole way of thinking of Kansas City and the fans of the Chiefs. I know it seems like telling on a child, but sometimes things have to be addressed before it gets out of hand. Once ESPN gets a hold of this they might just make KC and it’s fans out to be nothing but malcontented gay bashers and that’s not us, it’s Him.
is it me? or isn't about time the Lamar Hunt trophy belonged to His team?

Not to completely defend LJ....
But in reality… the guy made a couple of posts about his boss…. Tell me you’ve never bitched about your boss…. then fans decided to deride the guy, and he responds in kind…. Yeah maybe not a good PR move…. Just because he’s a pro athlete means that people can talk shit to him and he’s expected to just back down???
Remember these fans were talking shit to someone that has damn near broken his body for a paycheck supplied by the chiefs and has helped us win a whole lot more ball games than Todd Haley has…. But fans decided they should take Haley’s side in this??? wtf…
I’d really like to know what those fans said to him before he started saying stupid shit….

Because he is supposed to be a professional athlete he is not supposed to response to fan taunts with homophobic slurs. You can defend yourself, but there are ways. This goes beyond a “bad PR move”. If you don’t like fan taunts, then probably not a good idea to be actively and publicly involved in a social networking site. Its not that hard.

Yeah I guess pro athletes aren't people.....
They can be poked and prodded enough that eventually they’ll respond…. just like any of you would….
look at how much KD2407 prodded him to say something… he probably had a few drinks and didn’t want to deal with some shit from a kid living in his mom’s basement….
Are you saying that part of being a pro athlete is letting someone verbally abuse you without responding to it?

When was the last time you looked at your boss in the face and said something like this about him? I doubt it’s ever, and if you have you were likely disciplined or fired shortly after.
That’s how you gotta view Twitter – it’s public, it’s like saying something to someone’s face. This was a stupid, stupid move regardless of how he feels.

Deactivate him for the rest of the year.
He is not in the long term plans and we are not a playoff team. His salary is guaranteed for this year so if we release him (which was my original thought) he will still get paid and maybe go to another team.
The better option is to not even dress him again this year. Make him stand on the sidelines and make sure that the stadium guys regularly scroll a screen showing Holmes as the Chiefs all-time leading rusher about 15 times a game.
I can’t believe that LJ sucked me in again this year. I was actually starting to think he might be becoming a teamate and a leader, but it turns out he is and always will be a cancer. Cut it off before it gets any bigger.

You know...
I was angry at Priest Holmes for coming back after his injury to play for the Chiefs because it seemed that he was just doing it to get the pay check. But now I think you’re right. Even though Holmes had some off the field issues, none of them involved disrespecting the team, fans, and the people of KC.

This is…..beyond unacceptable behavior. Something should be done about his attitude. Cut him, bench him, suspend him…DO something about this disaster his immature mouth has created.
We help pay his salary by showing up to games, purchasing concessions, and paying for parking. This makes me absolutely irrate.
If nothing is done regarding this situation…I will have lost all faith in this organization. This has gone too far.

@ AP
Hey, you guys ought to start a petition for fans to sign expressing our feelings about LJ being benched. We can then make sure that the Hunts can hear our voice in full. I don’t want this immature money grubber that disrespects our city and fans getting the franchise rushing yards record. Judging by the above comments, my thoughts are pretty consistent with everyone else.
Give us some kind of an outlet to voice our displeasure. We’ve got two weeks to get him off the field. Let’s do it. I’m fine with Clark taking his time to build the team and essentially ignoring the fact that more should have been done in the last offseason, but I won’t ignore it if LJ is allowed to walk away again.
About the Chiefs: I'd rather be a realist than a pessimist
