Honestly he's a guy that if I talked to enough I'd be comfortable with. Had it been just the initial punch it'd make it easier, but the continued tirade was a bit too much. The guy that got punched more than deserved it. After coming back from the suspension it didn't seem like he did much though, despite having been practicing with the team the whole time.

Bring him back if he wants to work, of course if there is no new cba in place I would say cut him and that fat bloated contract of the books. If there is no market for the kid bring him back on a lesser contract. Even then I do not know if I want him on the team. CP wasn't exactly quite when he was in the end of his run in Denver under MS's discipline.

I only want him back if we can put him in a dunk tank at the 50 yard line.

Just kidding...but he does need to go.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?

I accidentally voted No but i meant Yes. Not that one vote has ever counted.

I think he is worth the roster spot for at least one more season. I believe he should get a second chance with the skins in the Shanny system provided he can keep his mouth shut. I absolutely think he still has some gas in the tank and if next year is uncapped, who cares what his salary is? Ultimately it comes down to this equation for me...

(CP's Remaining Production + His Motivation to prove himself - His Issues) X Shanny's system > 1 Year's experience for our Future Back

If everything else were equal, I would say bring him back.

But the opportunity to dump his bloated salary in an uncapped year is too great. I say send him packing.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?

I accidently hit yes. Yes I want him gone next season. Either that or I want someone to control him. It's either or. He can't be allowed to cut the coach's and players's legs out from under them. At this point in his career I don't understand why you'd keep him anyway?

Do you all want Anders Beutel to return? Maybe a poll.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?

I voted no but I'm sort of on the fence about him. He has been such a distraction at times it's easy to become discouraged about him. There's a possibility he could still be productive in a lesser role but the problem is, will they be willing to pay him what he's owed for lesser production. If I were forced to not straddle the fence I'd say no.

I would like to see him gone but is that feasible. Unless another team is willing to accept him in a trade, the Skins may be stuck with him.

Yes.

If we were on the cusp of the playoffs I might want him back to share carries, but on this team what's the point? Id rather the reps go to our young RBs whoever they may be.
