    Clinton Portis and Brian Mitchell Radio Interview Goes Entertainingly Off The Rails


    Yesterday, Clinton Portis went on John Thompson's radio show on WTEM 980 in Washington, D.C. and within minutes he and Thompson's co-host, former Redskin/Eagle Brian Mitchell , were at each others throats. B. Mitch has been critical of Portis in the past, which prompted the feud, and the DC Sports Bog has the highlights:

    Portis: "You think that I'm gonna back down? I ain't gonna back down."
    Mitchell: "If you ever want to go to that area, that'll be the wrong thing you do. Believe that. Believe that."

    More quotes after the jump. Believe that. More »

    Clinton Portis Plays All The Old Hits

    We hope whoever takes over this site keeps the Deadspin Hall Of Fame going; it would make us very happy to see that still cruising along in a decade. (We also love that it's so difficult to get in; just one inductee last year!) One of the earliest enshrinees, Clinton Portis, is returning to his old tricks ... if in a somewhat less interesting, more corporate family friendly fashion. More »

    Clinton Portis Is Happily Weird Again


    Via DC Sports Bog, which was invented for this very thing, it's Clinton Portis' newest "character." It's "Choo-Choo." We don't know what it means, and we don't care. It's like the final season of "Arrested Development;" not as inspired as the first go-arounds, but we're all just grateful it's back, nevertheless.

    Easterns Motors may be known for luring low-income debt-ridden customers into purchasing a car they can't afford, but they're the only entertaining car dealership in the history of the world. It began with the all-time great radio jingle, it progressed into some brilliantly goofy tv spots with local athletes singing said jingle, and now it's come to this; a delightful video filled with cars, a goofy Clinton Portis wearing a hilarious shirt, and some fetching young ladies. There might have even been a car in there somewhere, I don't really remember. Thanks to the brothers Mottram at Mister Irrelevant for bringing this to light.

    Clinton Portis Has Ron Mexico's Back

    Ron Mexico might be going through a particularly difficult time right now, but it's worth noting that he has one significant booster: Deadspin Hall of Famer Clinton Portis. He'd just like you and your ilk to leave Mr. Vick and his puppies alone. More »

    Clinton Portis Is Keeping Curious Company

    We'll confess, we don't watch that "Flavor Of Love" show on VH-1; we remember once having good thoughts about Flavor Flav, many years ago, and just seeing the highlights of the show makes us extremely uncomfortable, like we're watching Reagan in the last throes of Alzheimer's or something. (We bet Chuck D can't watch that show without throwing up.) More »

    Please Heed These Tips For A Safe And Fun Halloween

    This is for all of you Halloween revelers who are planning on being clever tomorrow night and dress up like Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter. And you know who you are. We see you with the Paul Hogan hat and the toy sting ray and the too-tight khaki shorts, and we're begging you to stop. My God, many of you even have toy crocodiles. Ecch. Just don't do it. And not because it would be in poor taste, but because it's lame; everyone is going to have the same idea. From the Snopes.com message board: More »

    Clinton Portis Hangs Up The Wacky Glasses

    There's a reason that you must wait five years until after your career is over to be elected to most professional sports Halls of Fame; it looks strange to have a Hall of Famer out there running around like everybody else. It seems beneath them, somehow. More »
