Portis calling out B-mitch on the air

The only reason this matters to me is that Portis' off-the-field antics in the media are starting to become a weekly deal. Last week, he made comments thats he shouldn't have about the offense around him, and now he's chewing out Brian Mitchell on live radio.

Both of those events are no big deal independent of one another, but it's starting to add up for him. I think he would be wise to stay out of the media next week.

I agree Tripp. Its a recurring pattern with CP and thats the issue. Also in an interview I heard yesterday he still wouldnt let the whole B Mitch thing go. It was amazing how once again he droned on about this stuff. maybe he's under some kind of external stress thats making him act this way but at some point somebody in the Skins organization is going to have to pull him aside and tell him to cool it.

I just heard on Sportscenter. And of course they played the part where clinton says you can kiss my ass. Media blows everything out of proportion.

I'm glad Portis said somethig about this because B mitch has been talking about Portis for some time.

Contrary to the opinions of most on this thread I think this is B.S.!!!

Portis needs to focus on his play and let his play talk for him...He has not won anything here...so he needs to step up his efforts not his talk back game. Tom Brady doesn't get this questioning on the radio cause he has earned his stripes...

I wanted to see Portis this animated in the offseason and in the preseason. Portis is one of my favorite Skins but I think there is something to this effort thing... You want recognition but not the work it takes to get you and the team there. Were is all the talk about the Cardinals this week. We havent won anything more than 1 game...string a couple of weeks together with these stats and nobody will question anything.

I don' t listen to the radio on the internet too often being that I live in Tennessee but I heard this b***h fight live, but B-Mitch tells it like it is...I at least have no reason to not believe him...He has won a ring. What have we won since CP got here. That said I think we can win here. So just Shut up and play your ass off and take your lumps and stop trying to get the spotlight...

B-Mitch does tell it lke it is and unfortunately a lot of what has happened recently isnt good. B-Mitch is negative when he needs to be and positive when he needs to be. Unfortunately CP and a lot of fans only want to focus on B-Mitch being negative because I think in some strange way they think it shifts blame off those really at fault, the players and coaches and on to the media.

If you think this is blown up too much, just think about what media & fans would be saying about CP and his comments had he played bad and the Skins lost to NO. It would be totally out of control. He's making the spotlight on him even stronger with all his talking, if he plays bad or the Skins lose this week the media and fans will be on him even more. This thing isnt over yet and I get the feeling when it does end it willl be ugly.

Clinton Portis holds the single season franchise rushing record. I'd say he's earned his stripes too.

Football ain't a one player sport...football takes 10 other men ready to bust some heads for you to dance in the endzone...Portis is a beast . but just imagine if he made the rest around him better...thats what the great players does!!! He has the ability to do this, but just hasn't done it...and talking s**t ain't getting it done. Cause if it did then we would be 5 time champs.

Imagine if Portis was the first in the weight room and on the practice field then maybe these rookies we drafted would of been ashamed to arrive to camp out of shape and not ready...if there were they would be ashamed to do that and practice harder and even take extra time to get the playbook down. The coach can only do so much...time for the players to demand more than talk. If you want to talk then do it to the o-line in practice and in the locker room. I am tired of the Chad Johnson bulls**t look how far team wise that has gotten him. Yeah he sells jerseys and all but thats all...bottom line!!!

I understand that football isn't a one-man sport. However, when you said the following, you made it sound like Portis deserves criticism, because he, "Has not won anything here." A player doesn't "win" anything, except personal/franchise records -- which CP has done.

Portis needs to focus on his play and let his play talk for him...He has not won anything here...so he needs to step up his efforts not his talk back game. Tom Brady doesn't get this questioning on the radio cause he has earned his stripes...

Yet, you give Tom Brady credit... interesting.

I agree with you here, but to question CP's heart and dedication is ridiculous, IMO.

CP bringing it to B-mitch (on the John Robinson show) about calling out CP re: conditioning, and remarks to the press regarding his comments about the linemen. Bmitch is trying to downplay it, and CP is having NONE of it. DUDE is HOT!
John Robinson is trying to get control, but I think they are going to have to have meeting the parking lot.
CP is jacked up about his alleged lack of commitment, and dedication to the team.

John Robinson? Who's that? John Thompson - the legendary georgetown hoya coach..??

I am just bummed that this is what I have to listen to on the radio. The John Thompson show and the sports reporters?!?! Are you kidding me? John Thompson admittedly knows nothing about football! And how about Steve Czaban (sp?) and Frank Haneran?? These guys are hacks!!! I used to like the John Riggins show...atleast there was a certain amount of candour and they could admit that they weren't "professional grade". For F*** sake, this is redskins radio!!! I say put someone on who is biased! Put someone on who is actually entertaining! Devote an entire show in the afternoons to REDSKINS! Snyder should hire Dexter Manley and give him his own show.
