Tank Johnson meets with NFL commissioner
By The Associated Press


CHICAGO - Bears defensive tackle Tank Johnson met with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell on Wednesday to discuss legal problems that landed the player in jail, but no discipline was immediately handed down by the league.

The meeting in New York came three days after Johnson was released from the Cook County Jail, where he served 60 days of a 120-day sentence for violating probation on a weapons charge.

NFL spokesman Randall Liu said the meeting took place at an undisclosed location. He said he did not know how long the meeting lasted, who else attended or other details.

Liu said he did not know when Goodell would make a decision on whether to suspend Johnson.

Johnson could become the third player suspended by Goodell in little more than a month for off-field behavior. In April, Goodell suspended Tennessee Titans' defensive back Adam "Pacman" Jones for the entire 2007 season and Cincinnati Bengals' wide receiver Chris Henry for eight games before introducing a strengthened personal conduct policy.

In December, police raided Johnson's Gurnee home and found six unregistered firearms -- a violation of his probation on an earlier gun charge.

Based on what i've seen and heard, i hate this guy's attitude. I really hope he gets suspended. The Bears should have already sever their ties with him and cut their losses, cause i don't think he's going to change.

I agree. Whatever the comish decides is fine with me. I think the Bears should hang Briggs out to dry too.
