I'm no football expert, and this isn't exactly a sports blog, but I thought I'd start off the day with three great reasons why Ladell Betts should start instead of Clinton Portis as the Washington Redskins Running Back this year:
- Ladell Betts doesn't have a chronic shoulder injury.
- Ladell Betts knows how to follow his blockers.
- Ladell Betts doesn't frickin' come out on national television and defend animal abuse.
For those of you who haven't heard about that last part yet, here's what Portis said to reporters about the Michael Vick dogfighting scandal:
"I think people should mind their business, you know. I don't know if he was fighting dogs or not, but it's his property, his dog, if that's what he wants to do, do it. … It can't be too bad of a crime. There's a lot of stuff that's crimes, you know. It's killers on the loose over here and you want to hunt down Michael Vick over fighting some dogs."

Clinton, buddy, I stuck by you through your lousy, injury-ridden season last year, but I think this may be the end of the road for us. There's a great article about the story on Fox Sports, which you can check out here. And you can watch a little bit more about what dogfighting is all about here. I'm thinking Portis should be made to review that video while the rest of the team is watching game tape next year.

Point taken, Tonto, but Jack didn't name the team. Don't shoot the messenger.

Portis is a moron and Michael
Vicks should be in prison for
cruelty to animals--apparently
these people have coal for
hearts and they are sitting
on their brains. When will
people understand that animals
suffer the same anxiety, fear
and pain that we do and should
not be trained to be vicious
--I thought this was a crime,
but I guess he's a big hot-shot football player and then
again he doesn't have a brain.

To view part of this interview with Clinton Portis and Christopher Samuels (Samuels mainly stands there and giggles like an idiot while Portis talks), go to www.youtube.com and search for "Clinton Portis defends Michael Vick". You'll get the horrifying picture loud and clear. What a couple of morons!
