I'm almost speechless. No matter how much money some of these guys make they still want to pretend they are thugs.
If Vick was in fact fighting dogs, he should be made to go 30 min against 2 of the most brutal, abused pits they can dig up.

It really goes to show exactly how removed and clueless are some of these players.

Clinton Portis is genuinely stupid. Seriously, the guy is dumber than a stump. His arguements on Vick's behalf are hilarious -- "It's on his own property, they're his dogs, people should mind their own business." Uh, Clint, it's against the law! A felony!

Portis sounds like a dog-fighting nut himself. What an idiot.

I think we all knew Portis was a pea-brain thug wannabe, but these comments really take the cake. It's really just a matter of time before he gets busted for something.

I used to be a big fan of his and his joking around with the characters, but I truly think he is a moron and I can't beleive someone is stupid enough to say this let alone to a reporter...

**festivus** · 05-22-2007, 11:21 AM

He should go back to whining about his team.

**RavensInBrazil** · 05-22-2007, 11:30 AM

Perhaps he didn't read the memo where the league says it's trying to reduce thug behaviour...way to improve your image, Clint

**WxKevin** · 05-22-2007, 12:45 PM

Wow...I never knew somebody could say something so idiotic.

Lets hold off on Vick until a verdict is in. We still dont know the entire story.

With Portis, sure he makes some whimsical statements. However there are some truths to what he is saying. You can see dog fights anywhere nowadays, if you know where to look. And he does have a point about this whole thing being no big deal.

:grbac:
Why is it not surprising you are defending this?

Sure, you can also find crack houses and kiddie porn anywhere if you know where to look, but that doesn't make either right or legal. Dog fighting is illegal, a felony, and to many, morally reprehensible. It only appeals to the thug culture, and if you and Portis are defending the act it really says a lot about both of your characters.

Man, the the f*ck outta here.

Dog fighting is illegal. A felony, and its cruel to animals. If Vick is involved in Dog Fighting his ass should pay.

The law is the law. How many times, Vick or McNair or BJ Sams or whoever, are we going to excuse illegal behavior on the part of athletes because they are rich?

Portis is an idiot. How about keep your mouth shut and keep collecting your check.

I was also equally dissapointed about Bart Scott's recent comments about the new conduct policy and Goodell.

Memo to professional athletes. Please shut up.

You're not helping yourself. Dog fighting is illegal, the whole "its not a big deal" defense doesn't fly, nor does "its his property, his dogs". I guess we should just let parents abuse their kids because, hey, its their house, their property, their kid, mind your business.

**Fanman** · 05-22-2007, 03:30 PM

I am sick of Vick and his pseudo thuglike life style. Smoking some weed is one thing...killing animals is WAY off base. I have now lost any respect I had left for that a-hole.
