So the poor man’s Grand Mama, Larry “Penn St” Johnson is complaining about his coach….shocker. So 2 good years of running behind a VERY good offensive line that included William Roaf, Will Shields, and Tony Gonzalez gives you the ability to trash anyone? This is hardly the career of someone who should be listened to:

The only record LJ holds, is the career rushing attempts in a single season. One would think this would be enough to shut up a player, but the TO of running backs apparently doesn’t think he gets the ball enough. He has clashed with Dick Vermeil in the past, and now Todd Haley is feeling the brunt of Larry’s rage. There is no need to call anyone names, never mind your coach. I mean British cigarettes are harmful and cause cancer if used for prolonged periods of times, not cool LJ, not cool.
I only wish LJ’s twitter account was still public, so i could lay into him for a bit. In case some of you did not know, the week prior to the start of the NFL season, Mr. Larry Johnson was partying it up, drinking, dancing and having a hell of a time in Las Vegas. How do i know? Oh, because i was at Ceaser’s, in Pure when the DJ brought everyone’s attention to the dance floor, as Mr. LJ himself broke it down. Now, i am all for having fun and going to Las Vegas, but a week before your home opener does not seem like the right time to party in Las Vegas. Most players would be studying film, working out, you know putting in dedicated practice time before the start of a brand new season. But Larry already signed the highest paying contract in RB history, so why should he have to do any of that? He already got paid. To be honest, i cannot say i am surprised, Larry came into the league acting like an ass, and he will leave it that same way.
