[quote=Slingin Sammy 33;545546]DS needs to have good relationships with his players, but has to keep them at "arm's length". [B]It's one thing to have dinner with a player and his family, it's another to be spotted at a Playboy party "with" a player.[/B] DS needs to grow up, put on his big-boy pants and realize his actions speak volumes to the coaching staff and players. This type of behavior IMO enables Portis and his rants in the media.

On the one hand DS can talk about how bad he wants a SB trophy, but he's unwilling to make all the sacrifices necessary to get one; including checking his ego, stop the stupid "stargazing", and stop undermining the FO and coaching staff. Unacceptable.

DS needs to get a keyring or something and keep it with him at all times with a "WWJG" on it. Whenever he's about to do something stupid he needs to pull it out and think...What Would Joe Gibbs do? Gibbs wouldn't be at a Playboy party and he certainly wouldn't be there with a player.[/quote]
How are these different? You make it sound as if they were out on a date.

Vast difference. My wife and I have had dinner with the CEO of my company. However I've never attended a Playboy party or gone to a strip club with my CEO. Having dinner with a player can still be seen as a semi-business setting, when you move into the other environment you're letting the player closer and on a more personal level than IMO any player should be with an owner.

It's really no secret Clinton is Snyder's boy. Clinton basically does what he wants, and it's also not a secret that it's not popular with a lot of players. He's a diva. A huge ego. But he's not a bad dude and he's a great player. It's not like he's a TO or an Ocho Cinco. Plus he never gets in any off field trouble. So you deal with it I guess.

Where is all this hanging out at the Playboy Mansion, with strippers, etc. talk coming from? They were at a steakhouse. Plus it doesn't specify that he was even with Hefner. Just that they were both at the same place.

Ooops. I wasn't paying attention.
Maybe Mredskins was right about my reading comprehension. :)
Edited my post.

The tone of the first post was they were at a birthday dinner/party for Hef at N9NE. If that wasn't the case, and they just happened to meet up in Vegas and have dinner so be it. But if they were specifically hanging out in Vegas together on a play-date, DS is getting too chummy with CP (as usual).

The comment about strip clubs was to illustrate the point of difference between dinner and other activities in response to GisG.

[quote=Dr Do Itch Big;545508]From the Las Vegas Review Journal, via ESPN 980's Sports Reporters:

Spotted....at N9NE Steakhouse (Palms) on Saturday: [Hugh] Hefner, celebrating his 83rd birthday with girlfriends Karissa and Kristina Shannon and Crystal Harris and "Girls Next Door" Kendra (with her NFL boyfriend Hank Baskett) and Bridget, Eva Longoria, Jamie Foxx, Joe Don Rooney of Rascal Flatts, and Washington Redskins owner Daniel Snyder with star running back Clinton Portis.

Dammit I was in Vegas all weekend!!! Oh well...next time...

Re: DS and Portis party with the playmates in vegas!
 

If I was the owner of the Redskins, I would probably be hanging out with CP too. That dude would probably have me laughing everywhere we went.:lol:

Yeah I don't really care even if they were invited by the Hef and crew, even if it was the mansion, a lot of high profile people have gone there.

Wow, it really is the off-season, eh?:Smoker:

I'm with you on this one. The whole owner+player partying crosses some unspoken boundary.

Don't hate on ballers doing baller things. Who wouldn't take part in a Playboy party? Hell, if I had to take my mother as my date I would.

Honestly if I were a popular professional athlete I wouldn't go there. I mean why??? You're going to hang out with a bunch of free loading leatches who use an old man for fame and a free place to stay?? Sorry but those type of women do nothing for me. I'd much rather go somewhere low key where there are at least some professional people. And I'm certainly not going to hang out with an 82 year old man.
