Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

I have no idea if theres any substance to this,but after Portis's comments,it seems like this is no big deal to him,I dont know if portis is involved in dogfighting,but i wouldnt put it past him.I've read that Vick might end up not doing anytime depending on how many names he gives up,and the feds are going to try and get as many big names as possible,I find it hard to believe that Vick would be the only nfl player involved,and if theres others he knows about he will probably give them up to shorten his sentence

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

There's no reason to suspect Portis of anything. He made some ill-advised comments trying to be funny. That is all. To speculate in this way is silly.

Man, what a stupid thing to say, based on nothing.

Have you ever lived in Salem, MA. and chased witches? Seriously.

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

I wondered that myself. I know Portis was just trying to be funny, but you have to wonder if he said that at the time not knowing the seriousness of the situation. Who knows if he's innocent or guilty. I'd put my money on innocent, it's just his comments make you wonder whether he has been to dogfights before. Also I heard DMX's house got raided and that several pitbulls were taken from his, so that also makes me wonder whether he is involved in dogfighting too. I'm sure these big names will be revealed once Vick starts snitching, so over the next few months we'll probably start seeing exactly what big names are involved in this.

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

word is Rapper DMX was ratted out by Mr. Vick a couple days ago_not that high profile of a name but a celeb is a celeb regardless...Hopefully Portis isnt that stupid though,hate to have to trash my #26 jersey ala my #7

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

Might as well keep the gossip goin, I heard the authorities where DMX lives(i wanna say phx, az)came to his property earlier and found malnourished pit bulls but gave him a chance to get them healthy and fix the living conditions. They came back to his property a week or two later and nothing had changed so now he's facing charges. Just the rumor I heard.

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

Can I add to this ridculous thread....ummmm Stephon Marbury, along with some other notables, questioned whether or not Vick should actually do jail time for dogfighting, when it's legal to hunt and kill certain animals.

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

I'm sure Clinton Portis has seen a dogfight at some point in his life, but there's a very big gap between watching a dogfight and being a major player in dogfighting.

As far as DMX, I can't imagine why anyone would think he's been involved in dogfighting...

Lol. There's just no way DMX could of had anything to do with something like that!

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

Thanks Southpaw. If the Feds really needed Vick to go after DMX, who if memory serves also had some malnourished pups turn up in NY, then I'm afraid for our prosecutors. Lets see, DMX not only has Grand Champ as an album title, not only barks on his songs, but has featured pitbulls barking at the camera in multiple videos, maybe he is involved in dogfighting somehow. What gave it away?

Maybe he has a dog breeding business.. Oh, wait..

this is just something to discuss,I myself dont think its stupid,just something I wondered,besides ,how many of you would be taking up for portis if he wasnt a redskin,lets say he played for the cowboys

Dude that is classic. And to the starter of thsi post why would you even ask this question? After all the negetaive press this has gotten the Falcons do you really want to hear Portis implicated here. I think the mods should close this thread. There is no bases to talk about this, it is purely speculation based of some dumb asss comments made by our RB.

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

I don't think it's stupid either. Vick is set to rat out everyone he knows associated with dog fighting according to the terms of this plea agreement.

Is it beyond the realm of possibility that he knows of other NFL players involved in dog fighting?

Now, it may turn out to be that Portis is in no way involved in anything of the sort -- but why is it outrageous to suggest that Vick may know of another NFL players that could be involved?

I'll bet Falcon fans never in a million years could have envisioned this with [I]their[/I] star player.

If he played for the Cowboys this wouldn't be a thread on our board, and of course we wouldn't like him. Just lilke we don't like any cowboy player.

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

Fair question for a thread htown. My gut says, if anything, Vick will rat out names not in the NFL. All Vick wants is to get back in the NFL, if he starts diming out fellow union members I doubt they'll have his back when it's time to plea for reinstatement.

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

I do agree that there may be other NFL players invovled but I really wouldn't put our guy in there because of his comments.

Hell Roy jones Jr. is heavliy involved in Cock fighting. He may be involved in Dog fighting to.

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

I wonder whether Portis has in fact been to dogfights and all, but I highly doubt he's a player in that business. It was a good question to ask though htown.

I always wondered why he felt the need to bark in all of his songs.

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

Shoot dude most of the topics in this forum are semi moronic. They closed that thread about Vick finding Jesus thank God. We need to keep to pure Skins topics.

They talked about DMX on the news after his house was raided. They didnt say anyhting about Vick ratting DMX out, but they did say he has been convicted before on anamial crulety charges. The news women also mentioned DMX was once charged with shooting and stabing his mom (charges later droped) - somthing I did not know. She was completely disguested with him.

Does Portis or another Redskin have pitbulls, that anyone knows of? I wouldnt be surprised if they bought them from Bad Newz Kennels. If you lived in the DC area, where an NFL player, and wanted to buy a top of the line pit bull - wouldnt you buy one from there (Assuming you didnt know that these dogs were fought)

I guess honor among dogfighters is just as great as honor amoung thieves?

I had actually said something about this before and got holy heck for it.

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

when you compare what vick did,and some of the shit that leonard little(dui crash that killed a woman),pacman(involved in a shooting that crippled someone)lawrence phillips(arrested numerous times for abuse and tried to run over some kids) have done,even though vick did an absolutley horrific thing,it do'nt come close tp matching any of that other shit.and hey,we may never know if ray lewis killed 2 men or not!

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

No. I don't see Portis as a dog man.

His comments are the reason to ask the question. Perhaps he was trying to be funny the first time, but his comments on the NFL network, which were intended to put a band-aid on the first comments, only compounded the problem and led me to believe that his attitude towards dog fighting closely resembles Vick’s as opposed to the popular attitude towards it. I have no doubt about that. I also think it’s not far fetched to question how many dog fighting events he has been too. If he knows where they are, then why cant we consider the possibility that he has been to them

There is now way Vick rats out any high profile player. I am sure his intention is to get back into the game. It’s going to be difficult enough to gain acceptance into a locker room. Imagine what it would be like if he rats out players.

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

No way. If Portis was involved in this, when asked the question by the WAVY TV reporter he would've ducked it. Being from the rural South, he probably has witnessed dogfighting and doesn't think it's a big deal (stupid), but I highly doubt he is involved.

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

This thread is more stupid than the Chris wilson signing thread. Shut it down. It is slandering a man without any proof. Not only is there no proof, it is based totally on inference.

Re: Could Portis be implicated by Vick?
 

IF any NFL player is implicated by Vick, I would think it would be a former Hokie that has been with Vick for a long time. However, I think the type of people the Feds are looking for are the interstate gambling ring operators not the retarded spectators.

Being a spectator is involvement enough and it shouldn't be minimized.

Does anyone here think that Ethan Allbright might be involved in drug-running?

Does anyone else here think that Omar Stoutmire likes to watch porn?

Does anyone else here get the feeling that Randy Thomas may have removed the "Do Not Remove Under Penalty of Law" tag from his mattress?

You know as soon as you remove that "Do Not Remove Under Penalty of Law" tag from your mattress the FBI and SWAT team pop out from the crawlspace in your house and arrest you.

I dont think CP will be named but the only reason I can think of that the Feds are letting MV cop a plea is because he is not the big fish and can name more names. The MV case will only get more interesting.

Could Karl Rove be implicated by Vick? After all, Vick will be giving names, and does anyone think Rove isn't evil enough to enjoy dogs killing each other?

The aforementioned statement is ridiculous - and so is this entire topic. Locked!!!
