It Was A (Not So) Good Run: Larry Johnson Cut By Kansas City Chiefs
Sportress of Blogitude — ... I’d go with the Raiders with the stupidity angle and the Patriots for the arrogance. But what do I know?

N/A — After a flurry of off-the-field extracurricular activity got Larry Johnson suspended a few weeks ago, the Chiefs formally cut ties with the once-dominating running back yesterday. Thanks for the memories, LJ. I never owned Johnson in a competitive league as far as I can remember, but do have a fond memory of him due to his dominating stretch run of the 2004 season. Johnson got the call to start following a Priest Holmes’ injury and turned in five consecutive 20+ fantasy point weeks to finish the season. Needless ...
