Bye Bye Joey Porter

[gr8slayer]

Steelers released LB Joey Porter.
Classic lede by Ed Bouchette: "The Steelers today released linebacker Joey Porter, their best overall defensive player in the 21st century whose play helped win them a Super Bowl 13 months ago." We can't argue, but Porter wasn't particularly good in 2006, complained about his contract, and was due $5 million this year. He also may not fit in Mike Tomlin's defense, which will segue to more 4-3 and Tampa 2 schemes.

Where he talks about Dallas saying they were going to draft him and took his family to dinner and bought them cell phones and gave them gear. He then says thank god they didn't draft me, that's why I'm a Steeler now.

It's a slap in the face to the Cowboys so I love it.

Ah, never saw it. But as an avid Steeler hater, I love this move. Can't stand Porter.

I agree but living in Dallas I hate the Cowboys even more.

As much as he opens his dumb mouth I'm sure everyone is getting a kick out of it.

More Steeler News

James Harrison will take over for Joey Porter at outside linebacker.
"The Wildebeast" gets his chance. Harrison, 28, signed a cap-friendly deal last offseason and makes much more financial sense than Porter.
