Raiders WR Found Unconscious in Vegas

Via The Hungry Actor  |  June 17, 2008
Raiders WR Javon Walker was found unconscious in the streets of Las Vegas Monday morning. Reported injuries are a fractured orbital bone. Most of us questioned the signing of Walker by the Raiders this offseason to the kind of contract he got.

Via MVN  |  June 17, 2008
The reports on the extent of Javon Walker's injuries have been sketchy at best. He was found unconscious according to Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.

Neither of these bode...

Javon Walker Welcomed To Raiders & Robbed

Via ebsports.net  |  June 17, 2008
After partying at the Hard Rock Hotel in Vegas (Mistake #1), and spraying out bottle after bottle of champagne (Mistake #2) he was found unconscious just off the strip in Las Vegas (Mistake #3). Also a victim of robbery? Oakland Raiders. Maybe they can feel sympathetic though and help Javon out with a new watch, because I'm taking a stab in the wind and saying that watch...

Maybe Javon Walker Should Leave The Clubs Alone For A While

Ghidorah is a three headed monster who wrecked havoc all over Tokyo in the 1964 flick Ghidorah the Three Headed Monster.
