I was watching the highly analytical commentary of "Redskins Nation" last night on CSN last night. All I keep hearing from outlets such as these is what a hard worker Clinton Portis is. I think it's time to speak out against this. How is anyone who doesn't practice considered a hard worker?
I'm not here to argue about CP's skill, but I think that while he may have been hard worker in the past, not practicing certainly doesn't make him one now. And why would he practice? I wouldn't practice if I had all my money for last year, this year, and part of next year guaranteed.
Those type of incentives destroy teams. Portis is the favored son of Snyder, and untouchable by Zorn. Publicly speaking out against your coach is always a bad thing, but one can start to see why Portis feels untouchable when he's guaranteed to be paid.
