Joey Porter Arrested

Sounds like a nothing incident that some bouncer and a Napolean complex cop turned into a big deal.

If i'm that bar owner, i'm firing that bouncer immediately. He turned away a steeler from the bar. Not because he started a fight but because he had a prior beef with him. A beef that seems to have just been words. Can you imagine how much business this could cost that bar?

Seems like. I think Peezy needs to lay low in the social scene for a bit. I think the Steelers give him a 2nd chance

I'm with you if I was on the team I would go on a social media campaign to let everyone know what this bars doorman attitude is. Not getting my business ever again
If I were the management I'd make him apologize, donate, do public service, etc and give him One more chance. He'd definitely be in a short leash but you got to give him the opportunity to be a better person and a real professional coach

Porter is on leave from the team. As of today he will not travel to KC.
 
That was according to David P Woods on my Scores Phone App
 
Porter placed on leave. Damn distractions during the playoffs
 
Me:
Administrative leave until it can be sorted out. Get someone else to run the linebackers through their paces at practice. doubt if he does much in game adjustments anyhow. Butler was linebackers coach before and can assume that on game day.
Maybe this team can save a whole lot of time, money and inconsistency and just put me on the pay role ;)
 
I wonder what Cowher's take on the situation will be this week.
 
A guy gets into a tussle with a bouncer at a bar. Happens every day. No big deal except for the fact it's Joey Porter.
 
And someone gets busted with a hooker every day, but if it is a cop, a teacher or a judge. Tad different.
 
I don't doubt that the doorman (and/or off duty cop) was a complete dick, but Porter should absolutely not be belligerently drunk and trying to get inside some shithole bar on the South Side. He's too damn old for that and it's very unbecoming for a coach of the Steelers.

LOL, it's unbecoming of anyone over the age of about 22.
 
I wonder what Bradshaw's take on the situation will be this week.

Fixed it for ya!

One good thing about not having JP is we actually have 2 LB coaches. JP coaches the OLBs and Olsavsky coaches the ILBs. Now Olsavsky will just coach the LBs.
 
Please he at best got in a confrontation while drunk... nfl coaches have done far worse with no consequences... joe cullen iscoaching for Baltimore right now and his drunken escapades were far worse
