“Every family member of Herschel Walker asked him not to run for office, because we all knew (some of) his past.

Every single one,” tweeted Christian Walker, a conservative social media personality. “He decided to give us the middle finger and air out all of his dirty laundry in public, while simultaneously lying about it. I’m done.”

He said he and his mother would appreciate it if the Georgia Republican would stop “lying and making a mockery of us.”

“You’re not a ‘family man’ when you left us to bang a bunch of women, threatened to kill us, and had us move over 6 times in 6 months running from your violence,” he wrote.

Saturday Night Live Weekend Update co-anchors Colin Jost and Michael Che were at it again Saturday, addressing Russian President Vladimir Putin’s latest moves, Lizzo’s flute playing, and Georgia Senate candidate Herschel Walker’s agenda should he win office.

“In a speech after annexing sections of Ukraine, Vladimir Putin attacked the U.S. for satanism and denounced the many genders in fashion in the West. It was a hateful, unhinged speech which has many Americans calling him electable,” Jost quipped.

“The U.S. Embassy in Moscow is urging all American citizens in Russia to leave immediately,” Jost followed up. “‘Oh cool, I’ll try to do that,’ said Brittney Griner,” he joked, referring to the WNBA star who was sentenced to nine years in prison after being found guilty of smuggling vape cartridges with cannabis oil into the country.

Che then weighed in on two-time SNL musical guest Lizzo playing a crystal flute belonging to James Madison, which became a point of outrage among some right-wing commentators. “So we have had a gay president,” Che joked.

The most extended bit on Weekend Update featured Kenan Thompson as Herschel Walker, appearing beside James Austin Johnson as Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.

Did win a Heisman 

He won the Heisman as a junior. In 1999, Walker was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame and is considered one of college football’s greatest players.

In a number of speeches and interviews over the years, Walker claimed that he graduated from the University of Georgia in the top 1% of his class.

United States Football League rules (unlike the NFL at the time) allowed athletes to turn professional after their junior seasons rather than wait for their collegiate class to graduate a year later. Further, the rules allowed him to choose where to play, allowing him to maximize his endorsement income.

He stated, “I don’t know if I would want to play in the NFL unless it was for the two New York City teams or the Dallas Cowboys.” Walker signed with the New Jersey Generals in 1983, owned by Oklahoma oil tycoon J. Walter Duncan, who after the 1983 season sold the team to Donald Trump. Walker attracted only one major promotional offer, a joint project of McDonald’s and Adidas.

The USFL had initially followed the NFL and banned underclassmen. However, league officials concluded the rule would never stand up in court, and discarded it.

To circumvent the league’s $1.8-million salary cap, Walker signed a personal services contract with Duncan (later transferred to Trump). Similar arrangements were later made with other college stars. Although this move was challenged in court, Walker and the USFL prevailed.
