To follow up BILLY SUNDAY’s post about the plantation system that keeps Black athletes in the chains of mental slavery, yada, yada, yada. I present to you the aftermath of a man that tried to buck the system.
MAURICE CLARETT was a star running back at the Ohio State when he decided to end his college career short and enter the NFL. By trying to forego one plantation for another without the proper documentation MAURICE has become the posterchild for why you don’t fuck with whites’ money.
MAURICE still isn’t in a LAWRENCE PHILLIPS category yet, but at only 22yrs old the future looks promising enough that we may one day have the MAURICE CLARETT Award for Wasted Potential.
When you drive an SUV erratically and you have an actual shotgun riding shotgun along with an empty bottle of the ‘Goose (Combat Jack stand up!) you are on the highway to Hell.
Let’s hope MAURICE can go from being State Property to just the the property of some NFL team.
I feel bad for this dude. So much potential. Kina like Shep from “Above The Rim” or was that “Nutso”? I get them confused. Anywho, this dude got some issues that UNFORTUNATELY, jail probably won’t fix. Only a psychologist and JESUS can aide this dude right about now.
My opinion
Maurice Clarrett is the reason why you keep grinding because Nihilism will and can get to a brother. Real Story. DP you should really have a feature on your sight called Blunt of Wisdom. How about that, and I could write for it lol.

SUV, Grey Goose, and a shotgun. Sounds like a good time to me
I don’t know if anyone saw this when it headlined Sports Center last night, but after showing the SUV and the police who pepper sprayed Clarett, they interviewed a writer from ESPN Magazine whom Clarett called just hours before getting pulled over looking like Urban Commando.
The guy went on and on about how Clarett sounded sorrowful, humble and paranoid. But the interesting part was when the writer talked about Clarett’s entitlement complex first seen in Denver last year when Clarett was an unsigned rookie at mini-camp. Although he had no official contract with the Broncos yet, Clarett cursed out a weight trainer and threatened to demand a trade if the man wasn’t fired for recommending Clarett begin his weight training earlier than he’d like.
He’ll probably have to pull an Akon and Styles P before he realizes how badly he screwed himself in the NFL.
maurice should probably just stay his ass at home for a minute and get his mind right. nothing worse than watching a promise go unfulfilled!
I will always wonder why Ohio State dropped him so quick and for doing something EVERYONE will do…lying on an insurance form. He was their star the year before and you drop him for a whole year for something like that. That was the catalyst. I wonder what happened that we didn’t see.
I like how this dude had a lint remover next to all that contraband. Gangsta!
^Word! I haven’t been able to figure out what CD that is he is listening to. I need to know what the soundtrack to all of this madness is.

according to ESPN’s Daily Quickie:
“Clarett’s SUV was found with a CD of children’s songs recorded by Ohio prison inmates”
