Larry Johnson comments on HBO

Did you see him on HBO's Inside the NFL show the other day? He was being interviewed by Chris Carter. He intimated that he's not able to play for a white coach because they don't understand him and his struggle as a black man. It was clear that he was speaking in reference to his relationship with Dick Vermeil, the coach of the Chiefs when he was drafted. I don't know the circumstances of Johnson's youth, but it's getting old hearing high paid athletes bringing up their struggles. We're all aware of the issues that come with growing up as a black man. Don't use it as a laim excuse for why you can't do your job as a highly paid professional athlete.
