Clinton Portis To Announce Retirement

[SolidSnake84]

If CP had taken care of his body and did the offseason conditioning and stuff, he'd still be here with us playing. By the time Shanahan put him on notice, Portis was already WAY past it on wear and tear.

Heck he could have stayed here at a reduced salary but in his mind he was still the # 1 running back in the NFL, and what he found out was that not one team wanted him after we cut him loose.

It shouldn't have ended this way for CP, he should have had a reduced role over the years and retire after spending a season or 2 as a backup/mentor type player.

I will be the first to admit that his act wore thin on me beginning around 2008 when everybody was the problem but him. I've been over it before, i won't argue it again on a thread about what is supposed to be his happy day.

I will say that even as a non-Portis fan, he deserved better than this and I bet that if he had the ability to take it back, he would have accepted a reduced contract so that he could stay here. Long live CP.
