SolidSnake84 11-17-2009, 01:03 PM Did you read the interview or not?
he's not saying the interview was racist.
he's saying that CantonLegend, who was accused of making racist remarks, is really Clinton Portis...who is accused of being a racist....confusing lol?

No, I understood that. If it's really Clinton Portis, which I'm starting to believe it is, who knows why he would say something like that. Maybe he can answer for it after he reveals his identity.
DynamiteRave 11-17-2009, 01:08 PM definitely said he loved the saints.... I don't know, if it was portis, Im sure he would have let "my pockets are straight" slip out at some point.
Okay maybe I'm missing something but can someone explain to me what the pockets straight thing is?

A couple years ago when he got into it with Bmitch on the radio he said something like "Im not worried, my pockets are straight" basically saying he did care about Bmitch's critism because he was getting paid.
Thats the cliff notes.

Too much is lining up; the Saints avatar, CantonLegend also strikes me as an odd name, Portis defending Portis makes perfect sense, Portis grew up liking the Saints and the old legends down there. And this guy's off to work in the middle of the day.

Youre starting to convince me....Im mean who else could honestly say Portis is a top 5 back except for Portis?
SolidSnake84 11-17-2009, 01:14 PM I checked his post history. He joined in April 2009 after being "invited" by a member of this site, but that person doesn't post here anymore....hmmmm
Next, in his about me section, there is a link to the N.O. Saints Message board and Team Shop....very strange.
Lastly, almost all of the threads he's posted in has him making a statement about how blacks are surperior athletes and generally better...also white people are "just slower".
Humorously he was arguing with another poster early in the year about whether to start himself (Portis) in his fantasy league...and also that he needed "insider" information about Portis' injury status lol
joethiesmanfan 11-17-2009, 01:15 PM Are you saying Portis doesn't get preferential treatment? What other player on the team could never practice and still start every game he is healthy? What other player could refuse to play in the preseason and still start? Marko Mitchell couldnt, Marcus Mason couldnt... He has a huge contract so of course he gets preferential treatment...most stars (or alleged stars) do to some extent.
Earned his starting position? I would argue the exact opposite. Betts has earned the starting position by being there week in week out practicing with the starting unit. A couple of redskin coaches seem to agree as well.
Betts has had two good games. Come on, I mean really. Betts fumbles too much. I don't forget stuff like that. Portis is clearly better than Betts, it's not hard to see. You want to punish Portis and reward Betts for practice, then when he fumbles the damn game away again then what? When he can't make one measely yard at the goal line. How many of yall remember that from last year? (against the Giants to win the game). Everyone criticized that move wondering why Portis was on the bench? You act like they been hiding Betts on the bench. Portis has not been explosive in the 8 games he has appeared in this year, but still had a 78 yrard run. If Betts received that hand off it would have been a good 10 to 15 yards. He would have run Sellers over and might have fumbled. I know how Betts runs.
firstdown 11-17-2009, 01:16 PM We tried Betts before, I give him credit, he has had a couple good games. But we have saw this movie before. It ends with Tampa Bay winning the game because Betts fumbled on his only carry. A carry with no other purpose than to run out the clock. No one's cow towing to Portis by letting him start. He has earned his starting position. You not making sense. You seem to think Betts has not been the starter because of preferential treatment for Portis? Betts fumbled his behind to the bench, and you know it.
HMMM, I remember watching a game not to long ago with Portis on the ground and the ball in the other teams hands as they score the winning points.

Exactly, why the f*ck would a Saints fan come here being so vehement about Portis being a top five back? Why not say, he's done and broken down. Or yeah, he had some good years in D.C., but you guys are being kind of hard on him. That's a case you make for yourself.
