http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/insidesports/6686 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 &mdash; both guys are dumbbells for that &mdash; but if the two agree to go outside, they also agree to the consequences. That's just the way it is between men. Posted by Steve E. Swenson 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.

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.<br /> <br /> The problem with initial police reports is how vague they are on such details.
