The Kansas City Chiefs star who was recently accused of spitting alcohol in a woman’s face and threatening her boyfriend appears to have confirmed the reports. Running back Larry Johnson has apologized publicly in an appearance at the Chiefs headquarters, saying: “This is the first time in my life that I actually woke up and was kind of disgusted with myself and disgusted as far as the way my life and my career is headed right now.” Johnson, who won’t play in Sunday’s game versus the Jets, is also accused of shoving a woman at a club in another incident. “I’m going to work to that point to get my life back on track and know that I, and I alone, put myself in these critical situations and environments to where things don’t come out favorably to me,” he added. “All I can do is promise to you guys and to people who are watching that as a man, I’m still growing and as a man everyone makes mistakes.”

Evander Holyfield settles with son’s mother. Four-time heavyweight champ Evander Holyfield will establish a $100,000 college fund and pay private school tuition for his 10-year-old son after a child-support agreement this week. Holyfield made headlines after the boy’s mom Toi Irvin sued the boxer for non-payment months ago. The 46-year-old, who’s seeking to become the oldest boxer to win a heavyweight belt, reinstated health coverage for his son after letting it lapse. Irvin’s lawyer had publicly stated that he would petition the court to have Holyfield arrested if he didn’t comply with a support order. Holyfield also agreed to pay Randy Kessler’s $4,500 in attorney fees on the date of a scheduled hearing in Georgia.
