Did that change his behavior? I'd say to some extent it's made him worse.

well maybe, maybe not. pat bowlen said recently that he wanted marshall back cause he felt he's done a lot of growing up.

People can always grow up, maybe he has, though the way the season ended w/Marshall I wouldn't be too confident.

The point of my post & Matty's was that your logic in wanting Marshall didn't jibe w/the standards you were judging CP by. Both of them have demonstrated very selfish behavior around their team.

I do appreciate the point about Marshall not throwing teamates under the bus. CP is more TO like in that regard. On the other hand, CP has never been in any real trouble like Marshall has. Marshall has been in the news for his fight w/his fiance I believe, and of course the incident in which he "accidentally fell" and cut himself. That's something you've got to consider about a guy you'd have to pay $40 mil or so guaranteed to in order to sign.

Could just be that Bowlen is trying to keep Marshall's trade value high but praising his attitude. No one questions his talent, but it's his attitude that could keep his stock lower than the Broncos would like

That certainly makes sense. BM's antic's are what has made it more difficult to trade him for the most value. If he's really changed, you'd think they'd keep him. Problem solved. His talent is certainly not under question.

Oh Joy! Another Portis bashing thread from the Snake man! This is becoming a weekly occurence.

BTW- LaVar Arrington is a jaded former player who takes every opportunity to bash the organization and even Coach Gibbs. He left uncermoniuosly, went to the G-Men, and did NOTHING! He was a player of superior talent who unfortunately was incorrigible and thought too much of himself. Seems to be the same gripe people have about CP...so who gives a shit what either one says about the other. One's a jaded former player using the media to air his grievences and the other is a current player who needs to learn when to just zip it. Their arguement can be summed up with, "Hey kettle, you're black".

Post something of appreciable content and I willl support it. However, if all you can muster is "another reason why I hate Portis" thread...then I'll appropriately call you by your name..Hater!

My posts would not appear condescending if yours weren't so painfully remedial.
