Riggo

I think they're a lot more similar personality wise than either wants to admit. But, in a way, I thought part of this was more a shot at CP's current teammates than Riggo.

Hey Lotus,
How did the party go?? Any inside scoop?

Quote:

For past birthdays, Clinton Portis has bought himself a Maybach, bought himself a Ferrari, and thrown a $200,000 weekend's worth of parties that included a rooftop Kennedy Center gathering, a dinner at Zola featuring truffled spaetzle and parlor games, and a private gathering at Lotus

I knew that was coming...yeah, he donated $200,000 to the Lotus Foundation. Sadly, it was Monopoly cash.

Portis said the same thing last year.

Portis = Riggo = Prima Donna.

CP does have a point though.

wilsowilso · 09-01-2009, 04:22 PM

As long as Portis keeps playing at a high level he can squabble with Riggo and play dress up just as long as his antics remain pretty harmless.

Dirtbag59 · 09-01-2009, 04:24 PM

Portis really is an idiot. I don't think he even realizes that he's insulting his teammates with this non-sense. Though he'll probably give some Jermaine Dupri type explanation about it tomorrow.

For those who don't know this is how Jermaine Dupri explained himself in regards to the Pacman video

"I’m from a city where in Atlanta, we do this every day,” Dupri said. “You’ll hear this in Jeezy records. When Jeezy say he spends $10,000 on one song? That s**t is for real man. It aint no play.”

“A lot of yall comment on how stupid it is. It might be stupid to you, but this is what we do,” Dupri continued. “We eat, we kick it, we throw money. Don’t make this one situation blow the whole thing out.”

In short I'm banking on Portis saying something almost as stupid as this trash of a quote.

Portis knows he's insulting his line. He did it last year. It's just how he feels. And if anyone thinks this line is the Hogs, they are out of their mind, so to that point, he is right. He still will run for 1500+ yds behind them, and we all will deal with his diva type comments.

Who doesn't insult our O-line? Campbell and Zorn have both said comments about the O-line being an issue.

Every person on this site thinks the O-line is an issue

He will run for 1500 yards if he gets 342 carries again, and there are at least 30 RBs in the NFL who would run for that many yards if they got as many carries.

Given that every team wants at least one 1,500 yard running back:
1) Tell me who those 30 backs are.
2) Tell me why they do not get that many carries.

Portis says in article: "I mean, you know, for him to be a legend and to hate as much as he hate, to be upset that I'm on his tracks...You know, it's crazy," he said. "Like, you did your thing. You know, the people around here love you. I'm not trying to replace you. I don't want to be you. Your background check and my background check, totally different, so I really don't feel like he can comment on nothing I do, you know?...

**Very true. Riggo does have some of the very same traits. The outlandish behavior. The attention getting antics. Wearing Camouflage and mohawks. Wantintg to be the center of attraction. Riggo was more of a loose cannon than CP. So it is kinda hypocritical for Riggo to mock someone who is simialr to his self and maybe less egotisitical. I think he really is mad he is being surpassed on the rushing list.

Yeah... 30 backs in the league average 4.4ypc.

You're right but a lot more average at least 3.5 ypc.

Sorry devils advocate.

Well there were 20 RB's that averaged 4.3 yds or better per carry -so I doubt there are 30...

plus of the 20, only 10 were featured enough to get over 1000 - so I doubt there are more than 10.
