hog1- Are you saying he hasen't been motivated up till now?

No, that was my question for you, you stated that Portis should be motivated to play his old team, insinuating that with extra motivation he will be a real force to deal with. And my reply was if anyone should be motivated it should be Denver, Portis is the one who initiated the contract problems with Denver, not the other way around. Portis shouldn't need his old team to be motivated to run, I stated whether he is motivated or not is irrelevant, because so long as there's 7,8,9, men in the box he's going no where, regardless of his motivation, so to answer your question yes I think he's motivated, but no as far as extra motivation regarding Denver, he will run as well as the blocking will allow.
