LJ's "apology"
Adam_Schefter PART I: Through his agent, Larry Johnson just released a statement, apologizing to Todd Haley, the Chiefs, the NFL, Roger Goodell.
Adam_Schefter PART 2: Johnson: "I regret my actions. The words were used by me in frustration., and they were not appropriate." Adam_Schefter PART 3: "I did not intend to offend anyone, but that is no excuse for what I said. I will do my best to learn from this." EDIT: Here is the entire text: "First of all, I want to apologize to the fans of the Kansas City Chiefs and the rest of the NFL, Commissioner Goodell, the Chiefs organization, Coach Todd Haley, his staff, and my teammates for the words I used yesterday. I regret my actions. The words were used by me in frustration, and they were not appropriate. I did not intend to offend anyone, but that is no excuse for what I said. "I also want to apologize to all the kids who view athletes as role models. I was not a good role model yesterday and hopefully I can become a better role model. We all make mistakes, and the challenge is to learn from them. I will do my best to learn from this one as I move toward becoming a better person, teammate, and member of the Kansas City Chiefs team and community." http://tinyurl.com/yhmozxz Last edited by AZChief; 10-27-2009 at 11:27 AM.. |

Has there ever been a sincere public apology by a famous person? Ever? I doubt it.
"I'm sorry I got caught." "I'm sorry my livelihood has been threatened by the consequences of my actions, which I sincerely meant and really enjoyed, by the way." "I'm sorry I have to waste my time issuing this ****ing statement. **** you stupid sheep. I'm rich. Why do I have to put up with this crap?" That's what they should be saying, and I have no doubt that's what they're thinking. Larry Johnson apologizing is like the customer service guy from Comcast apologizing. It all means the same thing - **** YOU. I honestly don't understand why it is so important in our society to see someone stand in front of a bunch of microphones and lie. |

I'm sure many would...however I would not categorize football as an "important" profession. I would categorize it as entertainment.

I wonder if Larry is even in Kansas City right now.
He's probably drunk off his ass, half a bottle of Patron in his hand, shooting craps in Vegas.
