Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

I dont know what he's got against Lavar. Why he hates him so bad.

I get that he's upset at Lavar for speaking at ST's funeral. I thought it was a classy thing to do. I think Portis is selfish. he didnt want anybody to be close to ST but him.

And LaVar throwing a pie at ST was meant to be a joke. And Portis said he was gonna jump Lavar over it. Good thing he didnt. LaVar would have beat the crap out of him. Mike Sellars almost did last season...Man Portis is such a punk.

How has this guy not had a locker room beatdown yet? Are the skins players that apathetic??

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

LaVar runs his mouth too much just like Portis. As SS has said in the past they're more alike than they realize.

It also seems from what he's saying that ST wasn't a huge fan of LaVar either.

LaVar wasn't exactly the most popular guy in the locker room either when he played.

I must say, when it happened it seemed to come out of nowhere that LaVar spoke at ST's funeral.

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

I can certainly understand CP not being happy with the scene LaVar put up at the funeral. If Sean and LaVar weren't genuine friends, and it seems that they were not, you certainly have to question what LaVar's motive was.

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

This is why I just wanted to be rid of CP and his big mouth drama. Everything he said is probably true about Taylor not being friends with Lavar, but why do we need all this dredged up? Every week it's something new with him...it's going to be really hard to completely change the culture and start fresh with him still around flapping that big mouth of his.

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

It would be nice if I could understand what CP is even talking about most of the time.

Anyone who understands human reactions could readily see how upset Sean was at the pie incident. As a result of that incident which obviously Sean didn't like, I can understand where CP was coming from in reference to LaVar speaking so fondly and emotionally about him at his funeral......CP suggesting maybe LaVar was staging?

Well, he was asked about it. I almost have to take fault with the interviewer who in all likelihood knew that mentioning LaVar was going to bring a "juicy" response.

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

Didn't Pedro Taylor ask LaVar to speak at the funeral? I mean for the most part, if someones father asked you to speak at a funeral, I'd have a pretty hard time saying no. I dont think he'd ask him to speak if there was no type of relationship there between LaVar and Sean. (That statement could be wrong, but I thought that it was Pedro that asked him to speak). I mean Portis has these feelings for a reason too, and he knew Sean better than maybe anyone at the time of his death (including his father). Again thats all on perception, so I dont have a fact to back that up, its just kinda how I saw it.

Not that I'm picking sides in this Lavar Portis thing, because half the time I agree with Lavar and the other half of the time I agree with Portis. The one thing I am sure of though, I want them both to just STFU. I dont want to hear about this crap between two FORMER teamates. This doesnt impact the Redskins at all at this piont, and this rivarly between a member of the media (Lavar) and a Redskin (Portis) is just unprofessional and stupid.

Finally, in terms of Sean Taylor. Can we just stop talking about him now with all this petty stupid sh*t. I will litterally go on for days with anyone who wants to talk about the plays he made, and the memories he gave us, and how much different our team could be with him on it right now... however, I dont care where the man's locker is, I dont care who did or did not speak at his funeral and if people are mad about it now. Just let the man rest in peace. The Redskins did a great job in handling the tribute to him, I still miss the hell out of that guy and for some reason felt a personal type connection with him that I havent with any other Redskin, I dont know if it was meeting him or what it was, but he's in the Ring of Honor, and he'll live in Redskins history forever. I am just sick of hearing about him regarding crap like this. Not that I blame Portis for having some feelings about his friend, but does this really need to be talked about now?

As long as there are media types around that love to provoke controversial issues, people like Clinton Portis & LaVar Arrington around to continue fueling them, they'll always find a way into discussion.

I agree with the fact the topic should no longer be an issue, but Sean ike so many others who are gone but will never be forgotten or allowed to RIP will forever spark our conscience to remember.

It could have been that Pedro Taylor was not aware of any friction that may have existed between Sean and LaVar at the time of his asking.

Right, I dont want Seans Memory to die. LIke I said, I could talk about the memoreis and play of the guy all day long...its the fighting and bickering over stuff that I just dont want to hear about...

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

bout time, heard a bit about the Lavar thing last night.. joked with Chris that it was taking so long cuz he had to run it through legal.. he tweeted back just some complications, he's pretty good about responding..alright time to read

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

LaVar plans on responding today at 5 PM. It's gonna be good.

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

well that was over-hyped

That doesn't excuse him in my book. Interviewers always ask questions to try and get juicy responses and it's up the player to be smart enough not to fall into the trap. Portis has no filter on that flapper of his. And frankly he is not good enough anymore on the field to make his antics even close to being a fair tradeoff. It's the offseason now so this will blow over without any harm being done but it's not like when the season starts he won't still be spouting off about whatever is on his mind.

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

Clinton is gonna talk no matter what, that's who he is. All I'm concerned about is him showing up to camp in top shape and ready to work. Shanahan won't let him become a distraction, I'm not even worried about it.

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

I hear you...I agree that Shanny will handle it. I am just sort of done with him personally. I think we can have a good running game regardless and I really don't care if he's on the team or not.

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

I was also under the impression that Sean's father asked Lavar to speak. I really don't know why anyone would bother to interview Portis anyway. SOS...different day.

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

CP just needs to shut his mouth and worry about football.

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

His grammar... just... wow.

Rest in Peace, Sean.

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

well lavar is about to "respond" on 106.7 right now

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

I like Lavar & CP alot but if you ask me they both need to shutup especially Lavar all that talent and he never lived up to it, they might of use him out of place to but he never lived up to the hype.

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

[quote=BleedBurgundy;699024]His grammar... just... wow.[/quote]

Portis was just being himself; he obviously doesn't like all formal stuff.. After all, he went to a university and graduated.....

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

[quote=12thMan;698793]LaVar plans on responding today at 5 PM. It's gonna be good.[/quote]

At least for the moment, LaVar kept his comments to a minimum. The feud needs to stop!!

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

I just want Clinton to bring back that Championship Belt to the sideline and play football. Its obvious that they don't get along. Lavar and Clinton need to man up somewhere private and deal with their issues. It seems petty when the public is involved.

Re: Clinton Portis Interview-Part III
 

I don't think Portis is going anywhere anytime soon so long as he works hard and produces on the field. I mean as much as I hate to admit it, character concerns are a little further down the list for Shanahan and Allen then most NFL exec's.

Just a couple of quick examples Shanahan signed Micheal Pitman and Travis Henry. He also put up with Brandon Marshall and his inability to stay away from trouble. Allen worked for the Raiders who are notorious for throwing character out of the equation completely. Also in Tampa Allen had both Jeremy Stevens and Michael Pitman (ironically).

With that said Portis and his inability to speak anything remotely resembling proper English is driving me crazy. Talking about wanting to jump people, criticizing a person for saying nice things at a funeral where he was asked to speak. Obviously LaVar isn't a saint but come on. Is this crap really necessary?

By the way when are we getting the Jon Jansen and Patrick Ramsey show?

[quote=Mattyk;698762]Well, he was asked about it. I almost have to take fault with the interviewer who in all likelihood knew that mentioning LaVar was going to bring a "juicy" response.[/quote]

So because Clinton is an idiot, we now decide to blame the interviewer? If he wanted to Clinton could have said a million other things about his feud with LaVar, instead he decided to resort to this Sean Taylor story. LaVar and Clinton were made for each other, I'm now convinced of that.

In fact I think this Rex Grossman picture sums up Clinton's inability to keep his mouth shut. Though instead of interceptions Clinton likes to throw around insults

Much appreciated. I was hoping someone would understand why I used the Sexy Rexy logo in relation to Portis.
