If his nicknames not “the cat”, it should be, Maurice Clarette, the cat with nine lives, carried The Ohio State Buckeyes to a national title back in 2003, pissed off his school, the NFL and most of the free world right after. Did some Punky Brewster level crimes before being drafted and cut by the Denver Broncos. Followed that by going thugly with a gunpoint robbery that helped him become a poster child for the prison blogging genre and probably sent the United States into the greatest depression.

Well, Maurice the Cat has moved his show to Omaha Nebraska, the home of the Nighthawks, a team in the UFL, whatever that is. Figuring that a Nighthawks jersey with “Clarett” stamped on the back would be a great wardrobe addition. I searched for some info on the club caring only about the jersey, but they suckered me in by mentioning the QB was San Fran’s Jeff Garcia, and teasing a video for the hawks new running back.

Did you watch the clip?

ESPN mentioned that Omaha native Ahman Green would serve as a mentor for Clarett, but the “Wild Kingdom” backfield of Clarett, Garcia, and Green, you can’t write this stuff.

I know what you’re thinking, Ahman’s supposed to be starring in Double Action Colt, Scott Harpt’s western flick that’s being filmed in Wisconsin. He was at the cast party, but his name was missing from the latest cast list.
