I totally feel better about signing him long term after this piece. As long as he is producing and doesn't have any off-field problems why wouldn't we sign him. Especially at his position, he is well aware of the dangers of not getting his payday now. He has earned it already. Pay the man.

First let me reiterate. Give him some money. Now. Shy of LT, but give him some damn money.

Realistically, I like this kid as a football player. I don't necessarily agree with him on everything, but he seems to at least be reasonable in public. We could have so many worse players (Shockey, TO, Nate Clements, "I was too busy thinking about New Years" Grossman, Moss, Warren Sapp, the list goes on), that I think the KC PR machine can overcome any shortfalls of LJ's character, especially if he does like he says and not let money change him. As far as leadership, I liked his comments. He didn't feed us some BS line about developing leadership skills or trying to help the next RB. He leads by example and that's all I'm going to ask of him. Some people are not leaders. They haven't developed the skills, and don't have it in their wiring upstairs to do it. He realizes it, and doesn't BS us. Article Approved |

Another great article\interview by Whitlock. LJ is impressing more and more with his honest and candid interviews.

Um, Nixon lied when he said he wasn't a crook. This interview is about LJ owning up to his shortcomings, explaining why he behaved the way he did, and how he has grown. He could playing the media, but at least he's acknowledging his shortcomings, which you don't seem to recognize.

Gretz is a complete putz. I'm a complete amateur wannabe hack and I'd be insulted if somebody put one of my articles alongside an article belonging to Gretz. Please don't ever do that again. |

I think what he is trying to say about the racist thing is blacks are doing it to themselves. That is what I took from it. Especially when it ended with him talking about young black people dressing and looking like shit. I don't think about these things. When I look at people I don't see skin color
I really don't, but nobody believes you when you say that so the smiley was in order. |

I honestly think it's a socioeconomic thing. I've seen the white kids in these neighborhoods dressed the same way. They all look ridiculous.

I find LJ to be extremely immature for a 27 year old. why does this "young man" carry a chip on his shoulders when he apparently came from a caring family, went to good college, and is playing football for a living? He just sounds spoiled. That having been said, I wouldn't care if we traded him, there are plenty of good backs out there whether it's by committee or single back. In the end this guy ain't going to get it done on his own, and I personally don't want to hear any more race bs, leave that shit to fatlock.
