The Bengals have apparently signed Larry Johnson to a one year deal, as a back up, for now.  Already LGBT groups in Ohio were coming out against the signing, but I don’t think it will have much effect.  In my opinion LJ is a low class homophobe but that alone should not preclude him from working.  He’s not making policy in DC, he’s a running back, nothing more.  If I were the Bengals I wouldn’t have touched him with a ten foot pole.  He is a destructive force who has no concept of team.  Haven’t the Bengals had enough issues that past few years without adding another egomaniacal troublemaker?  They have finally righted their ship and now they may be dropping a cannonball right through the hull.  LJ has had a problem with every coach and every GM he has played under, so why will this be any different?  He doesn’t seem to be capable of self reflection or humility and I doubt the Bengals are going to keep him under control.  We will see how it plays out but injuries or not I think the Bengals have made a mistake.  What’s your opinion?
