Which may or may not be true. I don't know Clinton Portis from Adam, but he has every right to say what he did. Until Michael Vick is convicted of something, I really don't know what he did either.

I haven't read the entire thread because I couldn't pass over this comment without a response....You don't know what he did wrong? You can't be serious....Besides the statement itself, here is the issue....His athletic ability has placed him in a position where he is not only a good football player, he is a respresentative of Joe Gibbs, The Washington Redskins, and the NFL. Whether he likes it, you like it, or anyone else likes, what he did was promote dog fighting.....to say there is nothing wrong with it as long as it's on private property....All he did was portray the exact image that the NFL, NBA, and every other major league sport is trying to get away from....I'm a big bad professional athlete and will dress as I please, say what I want, and about the only thing that you can do is boo me....that's b.s......
