Javon Walker, Chattin’ With Blogs

By Brinson | June 18, 2008

The big “news” on the NFL ’sphere today is that Javon Walker gave an interview to theDirty.com, who you likely remember for their Matt Leinart photos that were fairly popular. And by “interview”, I mean “pretty obviously a huge generic lie formulated to generate some hits for the site since that Kobe Bryant thing never got traction”. Here’s what Nik Richie and crew heard from Javon re: what was being floated by the news, and/or people who saw Walker out.

Javon Walker is a very close friend of ours so we have been reticent about writing this story. He was the victim of a brutal robbery and assault early Monday morning at the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas. After hearing the rumored versions of what happened concerning this robbery, we felt it best to set the record straight. We spoke with Javon just an hour ago after he was released from oral surgery at the Sunrise Hospital.

[...]Javon confirms this version as completely FALSE by statement to TheDirty.com - “I was just back at my room and at about 5:30 in the morning I got a knock at the door. I opened it and 3 guys with guns were there. They cracked me in the head a few times, knocking me unconscious. They then robbed me of everything I had; my watch, money, everything! Somehow they got me to a car and dropped me off in the street. That’s what happened.”

Maj probably put it best at KSK when he — not actually interviewing Walker, mind you — described Javon’s sixth sense: “Because when I’m unconscious all my other senses go into, like, overdrive. You know what I’m sayin?”

Exactly. Nothing says “Able to remember everything that happened after I was cracked in the head by a pistol” like “unconscious”.
