PORTER, JONES IN BRAWL
Per numerous media reports, including the Las Vegas Review-Journal, newly-signed Dolphins linebacker Joey Porter was cited for misdemeanor battery on Sunday night after allegedly punching Bengals left tackle Levi Jones in the face.
The altercation started at a gaming table at the Palms casino.
Per an e-mail from a reader who claims to have witnessed the incident, "They started talking ****, Joey Porter saying he'll always be a Steeler. He showed off the Super Bowl ring and Jones got up to him, and Joey Porter pretty much kicked his *** . . . . Jones never got a shot in."
Of course, this means that the Dolphins will be getting three points in Turd Watch. And that we'll also have to figure out how to reset our "days without an arrest" back to zero.
