If it is, Lord help us.
Maurice "Let Me Get My Gats and My Booze and Hop in this SUV All High and Crazy and Rob a Store and Get Crunk and Arrested and Ruin My Life Real Quick" Claurett is blogging from jail.
About 'hope' and 'helping people' and 'thinking out loud', but never about, you know FREAKING JAIL?
Can't be real. Can it?
Here's an excerpt from his very first blog entry (where the link takes you):
Transcending Ignorance and Supporting Humane Living
Posted in Daily Thoughts on October 7, 2008 by Maurice Clarett
Life is full of manifested thoughts both consciously and unconsciously. Through my personal success and failures I’ve had a chance to identify what characteristics are needed in the most adverse conditions. I’ve come to realize that the man does not create the circumstances in his life. He only reveals what is inside of him as circumstance and opportunity change. I accept responsibility for all my actions in the past and for the actions I will take in the future. It is a personal mission of mine to share my life experiences with others on this blog/website. I will give insight to others about some of the challenges I’ve had and hope to enlighten others so that they will be able to guide themselves better and transcend ignorance. The defects in my character landed me in the position I’m in today. If it wasn’t for family, friends, and self-education I’d probably still be suffering innately. I suffer no more because I make the conscious choice not to. I now apply my actions in a humane manner more times than not. I now realize that in order to evolve in life, one must stay rooted in character and apply themselves consistently to whatever bottom line they’ve created for them and their family. You must have integrity in the face of adversity and exercise self control when others are out of control. My moral compass has been guiding me throughout this current experience. It is my hopes that someone will pull something out of here to help them get through their daily living.
I don't buy it. There's not a single OSU graduate in the past decade that uses the word 'innate' or the word 'manifested' in anything, let alone in the blog of a drug-addled ex-star that went down in one of CFB's greatest flame-outs ever. Dont. Buy. It.

But give credit where credit is due. He misused the word “innately”, and then went on to say that he is humane “more times than not”. Nothing like a mea culpa where you pat yourself on the back for being a decent person some of the time.

Blogging from prison??? Oh man, now I have another reason to hate him. I heard he’s using his ‘yard time’ for this. Just how is he going to stay in shape for his PS3 NFL career?

“Prison Ball”….Sweet. Every touchdown you score, you get a carton of smokes. I’m afraid to think of what the cheerleaders would look like.
