Clinton Portis contemplated murder after fortune lost
What a total, absolute, POS.
This guy, to me, has the rare distinction of i think symbolizing everything that has been right AND wrong with the redskins franchise.
Right in that we signed a healthy young player who was hungry and successful, and wrong when he kept skipping practices, not working out, but then expecting to play on Sunday, and demand a fat contract, much like his fat body that was 300 + pounds following his final season in the league.
I cannot discount what he did on the field for us but this guy is an absolute scumbag. I told you all years ago that to hear Portis talk on the television, it should have been obvious to all that he was not very intelligent. Because he was an idiot and made stupid decisions with his money, just like almost every other young athlete taken out of poverty by the NFL, he decided that murdering his manager / investor was the right thing to do.
Please tell me that he is not in the Redskins hall of fame, or anything like that. I am sorry. Rant over. Murdering, or even considering murdering innocent people is not okay.
