To the dogs

As if the Redskins didn't have enough to worry about this offseason, Clinton Portis had to go and open his big mouth about the Michael Vick situation. My biggest concern is why is Portis commenting on this situation and why is a TV reporter in Southern Virginia - where Portis was to take part in the Redskins Beach Blitz festivities - asking him about it any way? What authority does Portis have on the subject?

Unless I am mistaken, Portis does not own or condone dog fighting - at least that is what the Skins PR team said on his behalf earlier this week - so what insight could Portis add to the situation?

While he is trying to get himself back into playing shape, Portis should just be concerned about how he is healing. And TV reporters should be more responsible journalists and only ask questions that relate to the person they are talking to.
