Ex-RB Larry Johnson makes controversial comments about 'effeminate agenda' in sports
Rich Barnes-USA TODAY Sports

Former NFL running back Larry Johnson became a trending topic on social media Thursday for his comments about an “effeminate agenda” in sports.

Johnson, who played college ball at Penn State and was a two-time Pro Bowler for the Kansas City Chiefs, said on Twitter that there is an “effeminate agenda” being pushed in the NBA and NFL. He got highly conspiracy theory-like in his tweet, saying the agenda was “peddled by high ranking Masons/handlers to indoctrinate the heterosexual sports world without them knowing.”

Perhaps somebody shouldn’t let Johnson in on the secret that the three-point strategy is being used because it’s advantageous and players watch their weight to ease the strain on their bodies so they can extend their playing careers. I also did not realize that trying to protect against CTE was part of some conspiracy and effeminate agenda. I kind of thought that was just common sense for anyone looking to preserve their brain.

By the way, don’t try to use Johnson’s extensive arrest history against him in response to his argument about sports. He says that’s all old news.

Johnson, 39, had 1,427 career carries in the regular season. He said two years ago he thought he was living with CTE.
