    Porter has issues. Always has. His " attitude/angry " issues translated to the field and we as fans were ok with that. His drinking issues were personal so we disassociate ourselves with that......

    His actions are an embarrassment to this organization and needs to be dealt with. I personally hope the Rooneys offer him professional help/counseling first and if he refuses then maybe dismissal talks should begin.

    Just dumb. This is how you ruin a promising start to a coaching career.

    Impossible. Nobody WANTS to coach for the Bengals. Coaches only go there cause it's just a little bit better than the Browns.

    Funny majority of the complaints revolve around the bouncers. What a coincidence.

    David Decastro said that this won't distract the team, and I believe him. We've got a special group of players this year. Nothing is getting in their way. I think their biggest motivation is all the criticism Tomlin has received. They WILL get the job done.

    Oh wow. Screw that place. I'm on Joey's side after reading some of those...particularly Ashley Toney's.

    Im saying the doorman instigated the situation by being confrontational. His job is to diffuse situations, not start them. All he had to do was say, "Sorry sir, looks like you may have had too much to drink, why dont you let me call you a cab?"

    Witnesses say Porter was treated unfairly too.

    Team has placed Porter on leave. I assume he won't make the trip to Kansas City. I hate that but if he needs help, get it now I guess.

    As long as that bouncer is named Dalton then I totally believe him. Joey had just better be glad he didn't try to pull this crap at the Double Deuce.

    Have we ever agreed on anything? A doormans job isn't to diffuse situations, that's a bouncers job . Doormen determine who can come in and who can't !!! Whether they are underage or already drunk as was the case with Joey.

    We don't know the beginning or middle of the conversations, just the final minutes and Joeys reputation for being aggressive and confrontational doesn't help him at all.

    The comments about him being mistreated came from folks from other bars down the street and was about Joey being handcuffed and loaded into a squad car.

    Send him over to Cincinnati and hire Kevin Greene as the new OLB coach. Just kidding. But it's inexcusable.
