File picture shows Kansas City Chiefs running back Johnson standing on ...

The Kansas City Chiefs of the NFL have suspended their starting running back, Larry Johnson, for one week for saying gay slurs on his twitter page and also calling one of the reporters the same 'f' gay slur after the Chiefs lost to San Diego this past Sunday. He will be eligible to play again in two weeks when Kansas City plays the Jacksonville Jaguars. Technically, Johnson will not miss a game because the Chiefs have a bye week this week. Thus, this reprimand is sort of like a pseudo-suspension to appease gay rights activists. Of course, the NFL will not suspend Johnson any further because football is a sport that is supposed to be real macho and that is watched by real men. The NFL and the Chiefs claim that the situation is being dealt with seriously, but he will not miss any games. He should miss some games for being an idiot. There is no need to bash homosexuals more; their lives suck anyway.

If he wasn't the starting running back, then he would have been kicked off of the team. The teams in the NFL place winning games ahead of being professional off of the field when there is a correlation of winning on and off of the field. Practicing a winning attitude brings about winning to the team.

First off, in no way was Johnson a 'beast' this year. He's playing horribly. Also, Maybe the reason why gay people's lives 'suck' is because irrational Bible thumpers are intolerant and disrespectful; treating them like second class citizens.

He should be cut anyway. He hasn't performed well in three years. Jamaal Charles is the future of that running game.

Running backwards in a cornfield does not seem like an enjoyable time.

Actually being this short is very enjoyable. The advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Now, living in Oregon, that's a different story.

    @si_jimtrotter SI_JimTrotter: According to #NFL, Larry Johnson is not facing league discipline after being suspended for two games by the Chiefs. That's disappointing.
