WTF! Larry Johnson Clowns Coach, Gets In Twitter War

After suffering another embarrassing loss against the division rival Chargers, Chiefs running back Larry Johnson decided to use everyone’s favorite social media outlet to speak his mind. LJ took a few shots at first-year head coach Todd Haley, who only has one win this entire season, including the meaningless preseason where even the Lions and Rams get W’s.
Haley’s had a reputation for not being well received by his team’s superstars, getting into heated arguments with players during his career (see T.O. and Anquan Boldin). It appears that Johnson has joined the list of dudes who aren’t rolling with the supposed offensive mastermind. Frustrated after another disappointing game in which he carried the ball 16 times for 49 yards, Johnson took to twitter to compare the credentials of his father Larry Sr., who is currently the defensive line coach at Penn State, to that of Todd Haley.
To add further insult Johnson attacks Haley’s questionable past as a former golfer and golf coach, before he decided to holler at football. This is something that Haley doesn’t talk about often, either because he’s too embarrassed or cause he’s trying to hustle all the other coaches on the links during the offseason and wants to keep it on the low.
Johnson is surely going to catch some heat for these tweets, but what’s more interesting is the War that he engaged in with random people on twitter, going back and forth trading verbal insults to those that have made comments to him about his candid comments on the Chiefs coaching situation. LJ goes so far as to tweet that one of the dudes has a “fag pic” and also refers to him as a “Christopher street boy” (Eastcoast thing) which can only mean his tank is sugary like Roy Munson’s.
LJ’s agent tried to do a little damage control on the situation saying that Johnson was not bashing Haley but instead praising his dad. But “we don’t believe you, you need more people.” Either way someone needs to talk some sense into the former pro bowler before this goes too far.
