Portis Was Only Being Honest

"You put a woman and you give her a choice of 53 athletes, somebody got to be appealing to her." These were Washington Redskins Clinton Portis' comments Tuesday when asked about female reporters in NFL locker rooms. Portis, who is known for his outlandish actions is feeling the wrath today and the NFL has made a statement saying that the comments made by Portis have no place in the NFL. Portis apologized and that will more than likely be the end of that, at least as far as the NFL takes it.

I honestly have no problem with Portis comments, this seems more like the media are taking his words out of context and painting them in a bad light. With the JETS recent issues with TV Azteca reporter Ines Sainz (Click Here for Photos of Sainz)and the on going investigation. It wasn't the smartest thing to go into but judging by the way Portis spoke to the radio, I'm not so sure he even knew about the current harassment investigation within the JETS organization.

At the end of the day, Portis was asked what he thought about women in a locker room and he was perfectly honest. I mean why do you think any and every gym around the nation has a men's and a women's side? Privacy issues aren't the only reason, I will tell you that much. The media is quick to run with the bulls when an athlete does wrong or makes a mistake and they will usually stay on any number of topics until the cows come home. When they feel they are taken advantage of, they use it to their ability to make even more media, only this time it is purely in an attempt to publicize Ines Sainz and TV Azteca. Did you see what Ines was wearing out on the field and in the locker room!? Give me a break, if she didn't want attention from the players then don't wear all white and portray yourself as a sex symbol.

Ines walked into the locker room with a bunch of jacked naked dudes, wearing an all white, skin tight, outfit with her platinum blond hair. Surely she knew what to expect.
