Dick Vermeil calls PSU product a baby...LOL

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

LJ's looking pretty good.  I don't think Vermeil's going to want to trade him now.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Oh, how times have changed.

Larry Johnson is already the best PSU RB in the NFL since Curt Warner.  Ha.

"I don't know if [Chiefs coach] Dick Vermeil is crazy for not having played [tailback] Larry Johnson sooner, or wise to have let the guy develop. Whatever, the guy really is a heck of a back, a lot different than [starter Priest] Holmes, not quite as downhill a runner. The teams that could have traded for Johnson a year or two ago are all probably kicking themselves now."

Good 'ol Meatsicle Vermeil.

[MURP]

I could run for 250 and 5 TD's a game behind that line. 

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I could run for 250 and 5 TD's a game behind that line. 

Yeah, but you are an NFL fullback.

[PhillyPhreak54]

LJ is going to be a stud in that offense. I bet that Peterson secretly wishes he wouldn't have blown his wad on signing Holmes to such a big deal.

[Wingspan]

dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick

how many dick's is that?

Larry Johnson accussed of assault

Chiefs running back accused of assaulting woman in bar

By CHRISTINE VENDEL and JOHN SHULTZ

The Kansas City Star

An Overland Park woman filed a complaint with police this week alleging that Chiefs running back Larry Johnson shoved her and tried to drag her out of a Kansas City bar early Saturday.

Johnson acknowledged he was at the bar at the time but denied that the altercation happened.

The assault allegation comes less than two years after another woman said Johnson slapped her and threatened her with a gun in his Leawood home during his rookie year. In that case, Johnson struck a deal with Johnson County prosecutors in 2004 to avoid domestic violence charges. Part of the deal required him to stay clear of trouble for two years.

Kansas City police issued Johnson a municipal ticket for assault Monday. Johnson refused to sign the ticket. He was given a Sept. 20 court date in Municipal Court.

Johnson could face up to six months in jail and a fine of up to $500, police said.

Police interviewed the 25-year-old victim and photographed her bruises about 10 hours after the alleged incident.

When asked by a reporter Monday about the events, the victim called the police report "faulty" and questioned some of the sequence of events.

According to the police report filed Saturday morning, the incident happened at The Drink, a Country Club Plaza bar, about 12:30 a.m. Saturday. The victim told police that she had an ongoing relationship with Johnson. She said she saw Johnson at the bar with another woman, who was an ex-girlfriend.

The victim told police that Johnson sent a text message to her cell phone, asking her to meet him downstairs, the report said. Once there, the two argued. She accused Johnson of then grabbing her by her right arm and pulling her to an exit, where he told a bouncer that he was a Chief and wanted her removed, the report says.

A bar manager, though, said the woman could stay, and she went upstairs.

While upstairs, the victim told police, she confronted the ex-girlfriend, an act which "enraged" Johnson. In the report, the victim accused him of then shoving her backwards with his hands, knocking her down, and then grabbing her by her right wrist. She soon left the bar but didn't call police right away. The woman told police she told her sister and some friends and then realized, "making a report was the right thing to do," according to police reports.

In a phone interview Monday night, the victim did say she was injured and that an altercation happened. Asked about her statement to police in the report — that Johnson pushed, grabbed and pulled her to the door — she said: "No, Larry Johnson did not push and grab and pull me to the door."

When told of the complaint before receiving his ticket Monday, Johnson said "I don't know anything about it. I was there. I was there with a friend. What you said was not me. If it was me, I wouldn't be talking to you right now because it would be a violation of my probation and I would be in jail."

Johnson agreed to enter into a domestic violence diversion program in February 2004 after he was charged with aggravated assault and misdemeanor battery in an incident that allegedly took place during the previous NFL season, his rookie year with the Chiefs.

Johnson County prosecutors had alleged that the then 24-year-old Johnson slapped his girlfriend and threatened her with a handgun in an early-morning argument at his home in December 2003.

The terms of the deal he reached with prosecutors required him to receive anger-management counseling and do community service and to stay out of trouble for two years. In return the charges against him would be dismissed.

Memo to women in the Kansas City area:

Larry Johnson is a bastich.  Stay away from him.  But he sure can run with a football.

[PhillyPhreak54]

He's the 5th Chief to get arrested since the start of TC

And they had a guy on house arrest during the summer for 3 DUI's.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Are the Chiefs the new Ravens?

[MDS]

They need class acts like Freddie Mitchell to balance things out.

See above for what?  I don't see any link to a story about an actual arrest.  There's a story about the woman making a complaint.  Phreak says he was arrested.  But no link.
