That interview reminds me so much of why this entire organization needs to rethink itself, and get everyone on the same page. The concerns of which Portis speaks are not monumental, they are trivial things that can be worked out with better communication.

Anyone else notice that Clinton Portis talks in the 3rd person a lot? TAFKAS noticed it
Yes I noticed it and I notice it about a lot of other athletes that they satire

i dont understand why people care about players practice habits. as long as that player performs come game day, who gives a rats ass? not everyone can perform at a high level without the practice, but if portis, or anyone else for that matter, can do it, why not? it keeps the mind and body fresh. we are talking about practice, right? :)

The one thing that gets me about comparing Parcells return versus Gibbs return is that Parcells has always had the luxury of bringing in players that he knows and that know him and his coaching style. When Gibbs came back the only people he could bring in were his old coaches. Gibbs didn't have 3 or 4 players tagging along that understood Gibbs coaching style who in turn could help relate to other players.
very good point, is there even 1 player left in the nfl that Gibbs coached in 81-93? I don't think so.

He'd be a 14 year veteran at this point (11 when Gibbs came back), so I would tend to agree that there probably aren't any left.
