Clinton Portis To Announce Retirement

[ethat001]

Portis was a great RB and had some of the best blocks by an RB I've ever seen. Definitely one of the league's leading personalities with his crazy characters / costumes. I still have a Portis jersey.



BUT -- No way he's a Hall of Famer without a Super Bowl. Too bad, if we won him some rings he would have been considered for it.

Also, as the years went on, I felt like his reputation became tarnished a bit by his antics.
1) He didn't like to practice or play in the preseason (and complained about it)
2) Created unnecessary drama by not being a team player
--> made fun of Zorn, didn't listen to him & went above his head to Snyder at times
--> talked out about other players, McNabb, etc
3) Was Snyder's pet


Regardless, best wishes to Clinton. Had great times watching him over the past decade.

Mixed bag, great player but never afraid of starting drama through the media. Coach Janky Spanky prevented himself from reaching his full potential.
