The latest Twitter tantrum comes from NFL player Larry Johnson. This is no slip of the tweeting tongue. This guy insulted his coach. I’m pretty sure that’s not the way to get resigned to the team come next season. You can see here on this screenshot from Johnson’s oh-so-tasteful Twitter page.

I don’t know what’s less smooth – the insulting tweets or the ridiculous wallpaper.

Johnson’s agent is trying to smooth things over by downplaying the whole incident and insisting that Johnson was only trying to promote his father, and that he meant no disrespect towards his coach. Uh huh.

When this hit the fans, they responded in turn to ol’ Larry. In what quickly became just another trolling war, he threw back a tweet, saying “Make me regret it. Lmao. U don’t stop my checks. Lmao. So ‘tweet’ away.”

I’m pretty sure we the fans don’t sign checks, but I can’t imagine it looks good for the NFL to have its players insulting them. Something about ticket sales and high dollar merchandise comes to mind. Keep up the attitude and Johnson might just be getting a little paycut after all.
