Puts the various misdeeds of some other athletes to shame if you ask me....and there's a good chance he'll never get in trouble for it.

So much for that "he's one of the good guys" image.

Just another example of why we shouldn't be shocked when athletes, famous, rich and powerful folks are found out. I just assume they are all doing shady stuff or fucking around.

And a perfect example of why these folks aren't role models or heros. They definitely shouldn't be looked up to.

My wife works for a former NFL players charity doing silent auctions for various events.

A few years back I had the opportunity to meet Priest Holmes. We got into a conversation about Larry Johnson and why some guys just always to seem to be in trouble.

He told me that he NEVER left the house outside of practice or grocery shopping and guys like LJ were the reason. He then went on to tell me that players who get in trouble put themselves in the position 100% of the time even if they start it or dont.
