Redskins RB Clinton Portis Discusses His Grievance With LaVar Arrington

During a recent appearance with Chris Russell on 106.7 The Fan in Washington, D.C., Washington Redskins running back Clinton Portis voiced his displeasure with former teammate LaVar Arrington's actions after the death of Sean Taylor in 2007.

"I lost a lot of respect for LaVar at that moment, speaking at Sean's funeral," Portis told The Fan. "To get up, I really thought that was, um, I don't know what you call that. LaVar ain't know Sean like that. For the people who did, seeing how LaVar was going to portray -- I remember me and Sean was going to jump LaVar, you know, for throwing pie at Sean's face his rookie year and trying to haze Sean and be the tough guy. He felt like it was a joke. We didn't like that [expletive].

"For all the attention LaVar claim and that him and Sean was cool -- they wasn't cool. Sean ain't [expletive] with LaVar. Sometime, people should stop... I don't think you should do that. If you cool with somebody or you know somebody, you knew 'em. Don't go and portray...set out an image like this is your buddy, this is your pal -- like you all hung, when you all really didn't. I don't think that's fair, man."

Arrington, who also works at The Fan, responded to Portis' comments via Twitter on April 30.

"our own chris russell of the fan interviewed clinton portis and he said some dumb stuff again whats with this kid?...they say he hired a pr firm to clean up his image-they need to tell him my name coming out of his mouth will only make this pr firms job harder...i mean really does this guy have a real man crush on me?lol i have been told im sexy lol anyways as usual hes crossed the line again...may play the interview today may do it monday u will just have to tune in-i have some thoughts on it but hes so last week...i guess he wants me to keep his name alive in the fans ears i guess? what do u guys think?y does he keep bringing my name up in his intrvws...wait until u hear what he says-if u didnt think this guy was a baphoon b4 this certainly makes a strong case and there will b no rant sorry."
