I guess what my real point is is that everybody on this site said LA was untouchable and any discussion of trading/releasing him was a non-starter because he's a skin for life. In less than 1 year he was gone. The same could happen to CP. In today's NFL never say never.

Overall I think your typical Skins fan wishes LaVar the best of luck in NY and are disappointed that things didn't work out for him here. If we took a poll I'd almost guarantee you that the majority of people feel that way.
As far as people turning on him, of course that could happen to anyone, Portis included. If he started bitching in the media fans would sour on him quickly. I'm not sure why that would be so surprising. That's life in the NFL and in sports in general.
