Clinton Portis's offseason

Maybe you read the Redskins Insider item last week about how Clinton Portis "has surprised many in the organization with his positive outlook and hard work throughout the offseason program."

I thought that was awesome to hear that Portis had changed his offseason outlook and work habits around, so I figured I'd try to find a quote from him about this pattern-breaking summer. Here ya go:

"My preparation for this game, the mindset, the appreciation for the game, that's always first. Going to work Wednesday through Saturday with a positive attitude instead of trying to figure out a way to get out of it, you know? Going out and whatever's asked of me to do, going out and doing that to the fullest of my capabilities. Getting in the weight room this offseason also was a major role. Sticking around, being in the weight room., wanting to be a big part of this team's success. And I think the guys around me, to see me around all offseason, to see me working out, it still shocked people every week. They come in like, 'Who is that? What are you doing in the weight room?' "

Awesome, right?
