This big guy is a wuss in the Joey Porter fight
It's probably not good for my health to call a 6-foot-5, 307-Pound guy wuss, but that's exactly what Cincinnati Bengals offensive tackle Levi Jones is for not derailing a battery complaint against new Miami Dolphins linebacker Joey Porter.

The two took some trash talk inside a Las Vegas casino outside where Jones suffered a small cut over his eye with the one punch Porter, 6-foot-3, 250 pounds, threw.

I'm thinking Jones gets hurt more than than on every down he plays, and he might watch out for Porter the next time the two teams meet.

I'm not condoning the fight — both guys are dumbbells for that — but if the two agree to go outside, they also agree to the consequences. That's just the way it is between men.

P.S. I ain't going outside with either of these guys. They can call me names if they want to but that's as far as I'm taking this fight.

P.P.S. My boss, Davin McHenry, put me up for this blog so if either of the gentlemen come to Bakersfield to make things right, they can take him outside. Seems fair to me.

anon,  why don't you post your name. You make bold statements then hide. I am not agreeing or disagreeing with you. I just think if you are going to make accusations like that, stand behind them.

You also have to remember where Joey grew up;  I am sure alot of his childhood friends are not the most upstanding citizens. But you are insinuating that he too is into criminal activity. What has he "had his boys take they fall for"...elaborate.

As for what the BPD thinks of anyone is irrelevant, we have seen how law enforcement officers conduct themselves...DUIs, arrests for steroids/drugs, beating inmates to death (sheriffs).

I may take back what I said about Jones if the facts show that both men were escorted out by security guards and Porter punched Jones, but Jones didn't fight at all. Then it's all on Porter.

The problem with initial police reports is how vague they are on such details. And the truth is in the details.

You are on a roll, tell them about the former Packers, meth habit , let it all out.

A very few years ago a local crack cocaine dealer was arrested and charged with distributing the drug. Joey paid for his defense attorney. The case went to a jury, and the dealer was found guilty and sent to prison. And ask the local gang task force officers about his involvement...

All these pro Football players are suspect from that Green Bay Packers Center, to Porter, too bad to because that Green Bay packer was one of us.

annoy how do you know he has STRONG ties to local street gangs?  How do you know he supports them with his money?

Those are strong statements coming from someone who hides behind a no name on the blogs.

And YES he is a local hero

Here is a question?...

If the community is going to band together to combat gang violence, but a local NFL hero has STRONG ties to local street gangs, and supports them with his money, is he still a local hero?

Jones should have asked for a kiss like the one Cowher got.

I tried taking the shuffle Board outside last Saturday at the Westfair.

Just a little bit of Shuffle pavement. And look at my eye.
