It's pretty sad to see how far Maurice Clarett has fallen.
I remember watching his first game at OSU vs Texas Tech and thinking "geez, a freshman might win the Heisman this year." Now look at him.

What the hell was he thinking with all those guns and a bullet-proof vest?

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

Seems clear that he wasn't thinking.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

Exactly...he wasn't thinking.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

Riding around with a bullet proof vest on?

Yeah, he wasn't looking for trouble or anything.

What a joke this guy is.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

I heard the Bengals Just gave him a camp invite.

All jokes aside, this kid needs some serious mental help. He had all the talent in the world but couldn't keep out of touble. Its really sad.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

There's video of the arrest on cnn.com right now, there's no sound for some reason.

He was driving a soccer mom sport utility wagon, which I find kind of funny. The rifle that he had looked like an AK-47, so that's pretty nuts. It seems like he was planning to rob a bank.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

Man every 8 or so years you get a L.Phillips in the NFL just plain and simple waste of God giving talent.....

Really this losers get the chance we all would just dream to have and they just trow it away it really pisses me off

Re: Clarett makes the news again

I thought he already did that to the Broncos. And he didn't even use a gun!

he could have robbed the broncos but the moron signed a deal with all incentives instead of guaranteed money because he thought he was good

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

4 loaded guns? You don't even have enough hands for all of those.

Maybe he was on the way to try out for the Cowboys.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

He seemed like he had the potential to be a good NFL back, if he had stayed in school. But I don't think anyone in the history of American sports has ever fallen from grace as quickly as Maurice Clarett. I do feel bad for the kid. Someone needs to save him from himself.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

I find it hard to have much pity for the guy at this point. He's old enough to know better, old enough to be acting like a man and not a thug. He had the world at his feet and he flat out blew it. It's hard to feel sorry for that.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

Oh, I'm not trying to imply that he doesn't know what he's doing or that he doesn't deserve to be punished. I feel bad for him for the same reason as Strawberry and Gooden...there is something seriously wrong with them. I don't what the hell it is, but I think Clarrett is more than stupid. He needs some help, but if he wants to act like a gang banger, it'll catch up to him. You can bet on that. He deserves whatever happens to him.

I mean, Maurice Clarrett is a cautionary tale. They might as well name the rookie symposium the "Come here so you don't end up like Maurice Clarrett conference."

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

Total waste of life that will never amount to anything.......that about sums it up for me.

And no, none of this surprises me.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

He had enough guns to necessitate an entire gun rack

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

So maybe he should start dating Stacey.

A large man in prison named Stacey.

[[I]content here removed because TMC beat me to it because my damn computer can't do squat today[/I]]

Perhaps Clarett has started a new career in bounty hunting...

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

Oh my, I would hate to be Clarret's enemy. He was obviously look to let his 9mm loose. They need to get this guy off the fucking streets before he robs/kills someone.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

On Sports Center they just showed his lawyer. The excuse that he gave for the bullet proof vest (which I think may be illegal in most states) and the guns is that Clarett has been receiving death treats for some reason.
I don't know, sucks that his life is so f'ed up, no excuses though.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

Didn't he just sign with G-unit?

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

As people know, I [b]was[/b] a Clarette supporter. Loved his talent, loved watching him for Ohio St. I thought that he had a bit of a point petitioning the NFL to be let in. I think the press/everyone bastardizing him because of it kinda hurt him mentally, but he had to know he was going against the pressure.

Stranahan said he'd never seen a player turn away so many helping hands, and Clarette ruined his chance. I supported him to get into the NFL, and liked that Denver gave him a shot, but he blew his chances and now he drives around Ohio ready for war.

Like everyone else, I hate seeing all that talent go to waste, but some people just aren't made for the NFL I suppose.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

If the guy is going to act like he has a mental illness, maybe more people should treat him like he has one.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

Clarett will have an 8-episode arc on Prison Break this fall.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

This is a troubled young man and no longer football news. Lets not post anymore about him. I'd rather read about Patrick Ramsey and Lav Coles. Think they will hurt us in the Jets exhibition? :silly:

Did Strahan and Shanahan have a love child?

If he going to be the guy who rapes T-BAG?!

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

On SportsCenter they just said the crazy part about the guns and the vest is that apparently he was driving in the neighboorhood that one of the people that were gonna testify agaisnt him in court for his other charges.

If he had made the NFL he could have paid someone to do this nonsense.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

Jeebus! He's freakin' insane.

Wow, that's scary.

Getting pulled over was the best thing that could have happened to him, he was obviously going to hurt someone or get himself hurt.

He needs to be locked up.

Re: Clarett makes the news again
 

I just hope this doesnt interfere with his football career...

Re: Clarett makes the news again
