So yesterday I talked about how all the Cincinnati Bengals seem to keep getting arrested one by one. Now I am starting to think it may just be the local status quo.

Maurice Clarett, same guy who just fired his two lawyers right before trial, is obviously on top of things. He also seems to be taking this whole Mahoning Valley Hitmen team thing to a whole new level:

The legal morass that has ensnared Maurice Clarett since he was Ohio State’s star running back mounted Wednesday when police found four loaded guns in his sport utility vehicle and couldn’t subdue him with a stun gun because he was wearing a bullet-proof vest.

So I guess this means his football career is over now, if it did not already end back in 2002 with TOSU.

Hitmen coach and owner Jim Terry said he spoke with Clarett by cell phone early Wednesday about upcoming tryouts and there was no hint anything was wrong.

The arrest will not affect Clarett’s status with the team, Terry said.

“We gave him a chance and now we’ll wait to see what happens,” he said. “I’ve seen far worse situations than this.”

Where has this guy been coaching?
