COLUMBUS, Ohio — Former Ohio State University running back Maurice Clarett was accused of using a gun to rob two people in an alley behind a bar early Sunday, police said.

Clarett, 22, who helped the Buckeyes win the national championship in 2002, fled when the bar owner or manager, who knew Clarett and the victims, came into the alley and identified him shortly before 2 a.m

2. What a dumbass.

Hey Maurice, if you're going to turn to a life of crime, how about doing it someplace other than Columbus!! You think people there MIGHT know what you look like? :eyes:

3. If he did do it, then you're absolutely correct

His ass needs to go to Canada and play in the CFL for a while.

4. I wish his 15 minutes of fame

had ended years ago. I'm so tired of that idiot. I wish he'd go somewhere other than Columbus too. We've got enough trouble here in Cowtown!

5. "Cowtown"?

:wtf:

6. Sorry

I was told ever since I moved here that Columbus was affectionately (or not so affectionately) known as Cowtown. Agriculture all around and a big city behaving like a small town. That's my interpretation.

Hope I didn't offend...

7. I've never heard that.

And I grew up around there. I think someone's having you on.

8. Maybe it's a university thing

I've heard it alot since I moved here nearly 12 years ago. I don't think I'm being had.

10. It was third in size until the pug's took over

Then they took all the population from Cleveland and Cincinnati and made it the largest in the state.

I'm an OSU alum, and we called it that all the time.
