Clinton Portis, has long history as a Redskin of bucking the team’s off season programs, instead, working out on his own at the Hurricane Alumni Social Club’s annual beer and work-out retreat, in south Fla.

Unsung. Unheard-of. Under-appreciated.

Competence.

Congratulations go out to our week 13 hognostications winner, Countertrey, with a 13-3 record! Rounding out the top 4 are: SAP_Pete, Deadskins and DesertSkin with a 12-4 record. Congrats everyone!!!
