BRIAN'S COLUMN

Where were you going?

Commmentary by Brian J. Karem 8/10/2006

My first question for Maurice Clarett, if I got to interview him, would not be unique.

“Where were you going?”

In case you missed it, the former Ohio State running back, who scored the winning touchdown in the second overtime of the 2002 national championship, was picked up Wednesday morning by police after pulling a U-turn on Interstate 70 in Ohio.

Police had to mace the 22-year-old because a stun gun was ineffective; Clarett was wearing a bulletproof vest. Oh yeah, and police found four loaded guns in his truck.
