[Broncos4tw]

Aww.. man I miss this guy. :welcome:

"Clinton Portis unloaded on Jim Zorn during today's John Thompson Show appearance, over and over again. He swore, he suggested maybe he should go on the injured reserve, he offered to become a cheerleader, and he said this, when asked what adjustments should be made."

And I bet he WOULD be a cheerleader, if they offered. :wiggle:

[ludo21]

he would bust 2k in our system...

[Broncos4tw]

I know.. I meant it when I said I kinda missed him. But he is a real strange fellow. I bet if we hear any off the field news about Portis that is surprising, it will be something like him being in drag in a strip club or something. That sort of thing.

[ColoradoDarin]

Has he ever been gruntled?

[Bronx33]

Is Disgruntled one of his personnas?

[BroncoBuff]

DJ for Portis..paging Mr Snyder.

no...why trade for a RB in his late 20's?

I wasn't being serious.

[Ray Finkle]

I wasn't being serious.

then neither was I:wiggle:

[tsiguy96]

he said he would become a cheerleader and cheer on ladell if needed

awesomeness

[Finger Roll]

jason campbell has become quite pathetic lately so they just run blitz with no respect towards the passing game. He has no chance lately.

[Los Broncos]

He didn't practice and Betts did, that's why he played.

[Cito Pelon]

Is Disgruntled one of his personnas?

Yep - Grumpy ol' Basementdweller Carbuntle Disgruntle.

[vancejohnson82]

i dont really get his gripe...he was banged up, didnt practice, so the coach didnt play him

the way i see it, if you don't practice at all, you are telling your coach that you're not healthy enough to play

i think he's frustrated but means well...i like Portis...like maybe more than a friend

[broncofan2438]

Come on back Portis......

[mhgaffney]

The Redskins have abused Portis

that is -- have not used him well

[Rock Chalk]

Maybe you should practice AI....er Portis.

[Hogan11]

Has he ever been gruntled?

Nope.

[extralife]

Teams always (well, very often) have guys that are too banged up to effectively practice, but come in a play well because they're saving themselves for the game. CP carried this team when he was healthy. Now he's banged up and he's doing all that he can. He's still their best back. I mean, remember just last year when Plaxico Burress never practiced for the Giants but suited up every sunday? That seemed to work out pretty well for them. Or what about Steve McNair's MVP year? You think Jeff Fisher was thinking about sitting him?

[UboBronco]

I may be a non-caring person... But Portis is one star player I am glad is not on the Broncos... I do not believe he is a team player, a good person, and an athlete I would want my community looking up to.

He is way to much of the "U" I think he and Michael Irvin are my 2 most hated alums from there. I am glad D.J. is not of the same demeanor, though he came from Miami.

what makes you think of him as not being a good person and better yet, comparing him to cokehead Michael Irvin?

And Portis wanted out of Denver the moment he first stepped out of the airplane at DIA...

[Play2win]

Some of my fonder memories as a Bronco fan...

along with the memories of Elway, and the Championships, are Shanahan returning to Denver and being hired as head coach, and...

Portis getting the MF boot out of Denver... :thumbsup:

[El Guapo]

Take away the "N's" and "O's" in his first name and what have you got?

[Beantown Bronco]

Depends on which "N" you take away. ;)

[El Guapo]

fixed. ;)

[Atlas]

Portis also said earlier this year he wondered what it would be like to play behind a good OL!! LMAO!!! That's endearing himself to his teammates.

If he wanted to play behind a good OL he should have stayed in Denver. He'd still be racking up 1,500 yard seasons.

It's funny, I don't feel that way. Portis was good for this team, I just feel like the Champ trade was better.

My fond memory was Portis racking up five TD's against the Chiefs. Gotta love that.

It's not funny at all. Clinton did nothing but give his best to this team and wanted what he felt was deserved for that effort. I'll admit the kid likes to have some strange fun with his celebrity status, but if that's the only downside to his upside I don't see the problem. As good as he is, however, I still feel Champ is light years ahead of him and do not regret the trade at all. Any Bronco fan with hate in his heart for Clinton is a fool.

Don't stop there. Take out the "P" and the "T" in his last name and combine the two names...:D

He still went down with a blade of grass . now I believe he wants another big pay day that is why he is pulling all that he has this year !!

Good pony up his jack when he demands his trade at the end of the year !:giggle: ;)

[Pat Bowlen]

that's fair


.....ya cheap ass ;D
A man's gotta have his billions, right?

[~Crash~]

bwaha. :rofl: :thumbs:

[Majik]

Just a question.

Why didn't Portis break off 2K in our system?

[extralife]

He'd still be racking up 1,500 yard seasons.

Even hurt he's on pace for around 1600 this year, which would be his second 1500 yard season since he left.

[Orange4Life]

I miss Portis. I would welcome him bakc with open arms. Best back here since TD, by far.

[Northman]

I dont miss him at all. I do miss TD though.

[~Crash~]

I dont miss him at all. I do miss TD though.

this is me I miss TD , Portis would go down with a blade of grass I will say this he is a lot stronger now and for this I think he would be alright now .

[~Crash~]

his real problem is he is wanting one more huge payday you can tell he is going to start talking contract as so as the season ends you can tell he was giving his all this season . and talking crap

[azbroncfan]

no...why trade for a RB in his late 20's?

I'd move an average LB for a stud RB even if portis only has 4 years or so left.
