Redskins Rift?
NBC Washington - Sports — ... ), PFT stands by the story :"Clinton, we honestly don t give a [poo-poo]. We use the stuff we get that we think our readers will find interesting. And when a credible source tells us that you mouthed off to your head coach during offseason workouts and another credible source corroborates the notion that you have no regard for Zorn, then it s something we re going to share with our audience." Regardless of whether there's tension now, everyone admits there was last year. And if they don't get off to a good start, it's entirely possible it could flare up again. Copyright ...

Portis and Zorn Are Just Fine, Thanks
Mr. Irrelevant — ... said. “There’s nothing going on. There’s no beef between me and Coach Zorn. We’re on good terms at this present moment. There’s no problem.” Jason Campbell corroborated CP’s claim that there’s no rift. Florio, never one to back down from his “source + past history = must be true!” formula (not to be confused with the previously dissected “past history = must be true!” formula), defended his original post about Portis-Zorn today while taking a shot at Skins ...

PFT's Florio gets bitter in defending Portis 'reporting'
Krem's Sports Blog — ... he is above everyone else smacks of a quote from last year as well. This is what NBC is paying for? Over at Mr. Irrelevant, the Mottram brothers, already on tilt after Florio's Favre-to-the-Redskins speculation on Thursday, had a little barb aimed towards Florio in a links post this morning: "Florio does what Florio does, says Zorn has a problem with Portis." Interestingly enough, the war of words didn't stop there; instead, Florio fired back earlier today at Portis and "some bloggers": Redskins running back ...

Are the Redskins Trying to Be Blacked Out On Local TV?
Hogs Haven — ... And I would be lacking the full "objectivity" that Mike Florio claims I don't have if I didn't mention that when they made their pitch to my Uncle and I, the Redskins' representative actually said that we should buy the additional seats and put them on StubHub to make money off of them. This is INSANE. First of all, they are basically saying, "Please buy these seats and then do our job for us by selling them yourself." The Redskins have a promotional agreement with Stubhub that nets Snyder six digits a year. So something stinks. Secondly, they are ...

Betts to take third down duties from Portis
ProFootballTalk.com — ... "If we have 2 minutes and 4 seconds before the halftime, Ladell Betts should do that," Smith said. "That's another place Clinton can get some rest. So this is twofold: You want to get Portis rest, but you also want to take advantage of Ladell Betts. He's a good player." Betts is talented enough to handle the role, and the move should help Portis close the season stronger than he did last season. It remains to be seen if Portis feels the same way. Portis has said all offseason he has no problem with coach Zorn , and how he handles a drop in playing time will be his chance to ...
