1. Ex-OSU Star Clarett Accused of Robbery

"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.

According to police, Clarett left the scene in a white sport utility vehicle with two other men and got only a cell phone from his alleged victims, who weren't injured. He was wanted on two counts of suspicion of aggravated robbery."

3. Is this the guy that sued the NFL over the draft?

4. Yep:

"Clarett sat out the 2003 season after he was charged with misdemeanor falsification for filing a police report claiming that more than $10,000 in clothing, CDs, cash and stereo equipment was stolen from a car he borrowed from a local dealership. He later pleaded guilty to a lesser charge.

Ohio State suspended Clarett for misleading investigators, and for receiving special benefits worth thousands of dollars from a family friend.

He later began an unsuccessful legal fight that went to the U.S. Supreme Court to be allowed in the NFL early. Clarett was chosen by the Denver Broncos in last year's draft, but the team cut him in August."

5. LOL!

You could say that he's living up to the great tradition of Ohio State. Of course, he has nothing on Lawrence Phillips...

6. Who the Fuck Cares?

I am so tired of Maurice Clarett. He was a flash in the pan that doesn't have any head on his shoulders. He could have been great if he just had a brain in his head. When he did get his chance he first held a press conference, some balls on the last player taken in the third round, and then pissed his chance away. I mean he went to the Broncos for christ sake. You can slot just about anyone in that offense and make them a 1000 yd rusher. So please Clarett just go the fuck away.
