Whoa. Vermeil nuked Larry Johnson this week?

**Rain Man** · 10-24-2004, 10:48 AM

Anyone watching Fox? Jay Glazer just said that Dick held a team meeting this week and put all of Johnson's comment on the overhead, called him out on each one of them, and then even brought out notes from private meetings and called Johnson out.

Geez. Take the high road, Dick. Don't be arguing with a player in front of the team. That's just not right.

Saw that...wtf???

Methinks Dick needs to retire and become a full-time wino. He's losing his mind.

Abba-Dabba · 10-24-2004, 10:50 AM

I really hope that is not true. It would just make me think even more than I am right and Dick is a old, crotchety, vindictive old man.

Saw the piece and I must respectfully disagree.

Dick has put up with this kid's mouth for far too long, It's high time he put him in his place in front of God and everyone.

Michael Michigan · 10-24-2004, 10:51 AM

I just saw that as well...

I really don't understand what the deal is with Dick and LJ, he has never given him a chance, i could see lj actually playing and doing good and telling dick to **** off after every play or give him the finger. I have a great feeling he will not stay with us even when dick is gone.

LJ's KC career is as good as done....Thanks DV for ruining a promising young runners career!!!

A good leader would handle it behind closed doors.

This has turned into a old man acting like a 7 year old throwing a hissy fit cause he didn't get the Christmas present he wanted last year in the 1st round. I don't blame him for being pissed at Peterson for forcing this bad pick on him but he needs to address that with Peterson not with the player...It isn't LJ's fault that Peterson created this mess.

DV is out of his mind, its time for him to say goodbye. But take CP and AS with you. LJ is going to pop up somewhere, sometime, and we are going to watch him excel...mark my words, its the way things happen with us.

Again, with all due respect, Dick has handeled it behind closed doors on more than one occasion. It's that whiney bitch Johnson that continues to cry to the media and keeps dragging this up every 2 weeks.

FringeNC · 10-24-2004, 10:59 AM

We need a win.

1adam1238 · 10-24-2004, 11:00 AM

DV has made some bad errors in this mess. Making the diaper statement in the press was wrong and now add this to a torn team.......what a team breaker this thing could turn into. Of course, there are those who say the team is broken anyway, this just adds to the problems.

but Vermeil has also gone public and taken shot at Johnson in the media

just stupid ... it reduces Johnsons trade value

**Rausch** · 10-24-2004, 11:02 AM

Now just HTF is this supposed to help us win today?...
