Portis calling out B-mitch on the air

Keep that crap in house.

I think it was a good thing. You have to call people out so that they will step up. And I think he was taking Zorn's lead. A spade is a spade.. so say so. I have no problem with what he said.

You know, if Portis really wanted to get to B-Mitch he could ask him if he knows so damn much, and he was so good, why did'nt he start at running back, instead of just filling in and returning punts. I think all Portis wants him to do is stop talking crap about him when he does'nt know all the facts. BM acts like the more he knows you, the more he's going to get on you , like some kind of tough love. The problem is, he's not CP's coach, and I for one could'nt care less what he thinks of CP. He acts like when he puts down the team he's "just being honest". Well you can say some good things about the team that are just as honest. Personally I'm just tired of hearing his negativity all the time. I don't think CP cares what BM thinks either. He's just afraid that we might believe him.

I need to hear a clip.

Portis's comments were of frustration. The "media" wants to create a stir and say CP isn't the same RB. Anyone who's knows football, knows that CP doesn't have a great offensive line and has a below avg passing game. This causes the other team to key on the RB's.

Portis was probably sick of hearing this and vented. It would seem to me that people expect athletes not to vent every now and again, like they are some sort of super human. He simply sais he didn't have the holes to run thru consistently in JG's offense. If he did then you would see the #'s. Guess what, he's right!!

I wonder how much of it was CP venting or just that reporter's spin on that "story".

It was in the article as a Quote from Portis and he also said he would like to run behind a better line for one game (not in those words but thats what it meant). If you think thats not a slap in the face to the guys infront of him I don't know what is and I'm sure some lineman called him out in private.

exactly, i had alil bit of a problem with portis' comments regarding the Oline (whom are great, check the rankings) until . . . .

low and behold portis' comments as made known to us were taken out of context and the reporter was the one who started the whole "hypothetically speaking if you were on another team" etc crap.

just another reporter trying to make up something juicy by leading portis down the whole 'hypothetically speaking" road . . . . portis should be mad if people take shots at him when they didnt listen to the whole interview and read his answer in context to the idiotic questions he was being asked.

go skins!!

Ive listened to half of this and as much I hate Bmitch, I think CP is wrong on this one.

he is just a bit outta control and obviously emotionally. CP is clearly upset upset but Bmitch didnt do anything wrong guys. As an analyst Mitch can say whatever he wants, who cares if it is right, it gets you to listen right? mitch isnt news, he is an analyst, therefore he gives an opinion. Sorry but CP is wrong on this one.

Just listen to it.

Why is CP wrong though? I haven't heard this at all so I am talking out of my ass I guess but based on what has been relayed here CP is upset that BMitch is throwing bombs his way. I'd agree BMitch has the right to do so but CP has the right to think BMItch is a little bitch just as much. Contextualize BMitch's comments with his normal negativism and he gets little sympathy from me. He's a bitter guy. Bitter that the Skins cut his ass (even though they shouldn't have, I agree) and he is bent way too much against them. Does he point out positives too? Certainly but he doesn't seem to relish doing that nearly as much as pointing out the negatives. I'd like to hear someone who simply points out both and doesn't show a propensity towards one or the other.

I don't think he points out positives much, but you gotta realize on all shows there is usually one host that leans negatively, it just keeps people listening. Bmitch may be factually wrong, but he has all the right in the world to say how he feels.

Now back to the interview, listen to it all. CP keeps on interupting Bmitch, while Bmitch does not. CP threatens Bmitch, and bmitch gets a bit annoyed and tells CP not to "take it there".

CP tells Mitch he is mad about conditioning comments and that mitch should be a man and not say it on air, but say it in person. Mitch says well the same applies with Portis, if he is so pissed why not try to get in contact with Bmitch and talk about it offair, instead of bringing pointless yelling to the show? Good counter point by him.

Finally CP is taking it too far, at the end he seems to calm down and tells Bmitch, that from his side it is "squashed"(if you dont understand, look it up on urbandictionary.com but means the "fight" is over). Dont you think that is taking it too far? It is just a reporters comments, nothing to get so upset about.

Obviously CP was irked, and he had a right to be too, but it came off bad.

You seemed to leave off the part of what Portis said last week about his front line and how he never had any holes to run through and how he would like to run behind a better line for one week. BM said he should have not aired that in public and BM was right about that.

Yeah I was focusing on the parts of today's interview I noticed, but you are 100% correct.

I'd agree about that.
