Larry Johnson's Twitter account has signed a book deal with HarperCollins for an uncensored tell-all autobiography to be released in January when the Kansas City Chiefs will be trying to figure out who to take with the #1 pick in the NFL Draft. The book is expected to be a bombshell, with tweets about how bad of a coach Todd Haley is, how LJ's father has a better resume than Todd Haley, and gay slurs somehow involving Todd Haley and how bad of a coach he is. Neither the twitter account or HarperCollins have tweeted about how much Larry Johnson will be paid, but rumors from anonymous tweets say that Johnson is expected to get a Matt Cassel bobblehead, a Jamaal Charles autograph football, and a one-way American Airlines ticket to a place far away from Kansas City.
"Larry Johnson's Twitter account is one of most controversial sports influences of the past few days" tweeted HarperCollins. "For the account to write stories in this book never tweeted about, this was too good of an opportunity to pass up and be apart of. We hope it sells a ton of books so we can make lots of money."
The Twitter account will appear on the Oprah Winfrey show just days before the release of the book to promote the autobiography. At the show, Oprah will surprise her audience by giving them all free Twitter accounts. The book is currently listed at #1 on Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, and TwitterAccountsThatHaveTurnedIntoBooks.com.
