NFL Notebook | Postgame hit on Browns' Winslow
Seattle Times, United States - 3 hours ago
BEREA, Ohio — The Cleveland Browns had both eyes blackened and their lunch money taken away by the schoolyard bully. Then, Kellen Winslow got called a nasty name.

Apparently, an overpowering 27-7 victory Thursday night wasn't enough for the Pittsburgh Steelers, who gave the Browns a physical beating and handed out more than a few verbal shots afterward.

Incensed by a late hit on one of his teammates in the fourth quarter by Winslow, Steelers linebacker Joey Porter made a derogatory slur questioning the Browns tight end's sexual orientation following the game.

"That's what [blanks] do," Porter said. "He's soft. He wants to be tough but he's really soft."

Winslow refused to fire back at Porter on Friday, instead choosing to take a higher road.

"He's entitled to his opinion," said Winslow, who tried to shake hands with Porter during pregame warmups. "He's a great player and I have great respect for Joey Porter. If he wants to be a tough guy or whatever, that's fine. But that's a classless act."

School yard fight?...Come on Kellen...you got me all of one point this past week and I am lockedi in a mortal battle for 1st place in the one of my fantasy leagues with my arc rival the Las Vegas Black Jacks...A little bit of nasty would have helped...the high road...geez...when does a bulk TE take the high road?

It's not much of a rivalry. I agree with Porter when he said there has to be a chance of losing for it to be a rivalry. The Steelers own the Browns. That is probably why K2 took the high road. You can't talk junk if you can't win.

I am not so sure the Steelers should be doing all that much trash talking this year...

Yea porter was just upset that he got stiffarmed to da turff by winslow in the first game between them last year. go to the Cleveland Browns website and look for yourself in the media section if you dont believe me.
