Javon Walker found unconcious in Vegas


Raiders WR Javon Walker was found unconcious early this morning in Las Vegas. The former Bronco and Packer had apparently been partying till the early hours, ordering up about $15k of champagne. One report says Walker suffered an orbital fracture, which is essentially a broken eye socket.

Javon Walker was with a Bronco's player who was murdered on New Year's Eve a few years back after partying in a club. These guys just don't get it?

I dont think players should be condemned for going out and enjoying themselves.

The question here for me is did he start the confrontation

Review-Journal columnist Norm Clarke reported that Walker had been spraying champagne into the crowd at Body English nightclub at the Hard Rock prior to him being found injured by police. He was at the nightclub for about six hours before leaving at 6:30 a.m., Clarke said.


Police found Walker at 7:19 a.m.


Clarke also reported it was the second night in a row Walker purchased bottles of Dom Perignon and sprayed a crowd at a night club. He did the same thing at Tryst at the Wynn early Sunday.
And here is where Javon got beat down.

Has there ever been a more overrated and overpaid football player than Javon Walker? One good season gets him two massive free-agent contracts.

I don't see the big deal here, the guy got really trashed in Vegas, blew a lot of money (which he has plenty of) and now he is getting trashed for it?

He was flashing his money and spraying champagne on people. I'm not saying he got what he deserved, but that's what happens....
