Re: Clinton Portis appreciation thread
Yeah, he's a player people loved to hate and rip while he was here, but we'll all miss him. After we lost Taylor, he really stepped up as a leader on and off the field. He's had his good and bad moments, but in the end, he's one of the greatest Redskins players of all time.
Definitely my favorite along with Darrell Green. I may not even retire his jersey. I won't be ashamed wearing it after he's gone.

Re: Clinton Portis appreciation thread
Definitely one of my favorites as well! I kept hoping there was a slight chance that he'd come back and be a one two punch with Torrain, but I suppose it's not meant to be. Thank you Clinton Portis!

He even wrapped up his career admirably. He was running hard in that last game against the Titans. Not sent from a Droid.

Re: Clinton Portis appreciation thread
Sad to see him go. I know people were annoyed by his characters like south east jerome and sheriff gonna getcha but I always thought he was just trying to lighten the mood a little! He'll be missed!

Re: Clinton Portis appreciation thread
I gotta admit, I'm going to miss CP. No one played harder or tougher on game day. Hope he catches on with New Orleans (or a winning team) and gets a chance to win a ring.

Re: Clinton Portis appreciation thread
This video is so good it has to be posted twice. LOL. (and let's ignore the second block which is clearly a block in the back :FIREdevil )

I just wish that video wasn't in slo-mo. His blocks were awesome at real speed.

Re: Clinton Portis appreciation thread
I have some great memories of him, the best was the game winning td run around left end v. Philly on 1/1/06 that brought us to 10-6 & in the playoffs. That came after S. Taylor picked up a fumble if I remember correctly.
The saddest part of his leaving to me was not the record (Riggo was my fave in the 80s so I can't route against him keeping the record), but the renewed commitment when Shanahan came in. CP was a pain in the ass for Zorn but then cleaned his act up this past year, but we'll likely never see what SE Jerome et al will play like in their twilight in DC. |
