Joey Porter Let's His Mouth Rest, Puts Hands to the Test

Joey is well known for his jibber jabber mouth on and off the field. This time he put his hands to work. We don't know much of the story yet. Let boys be boys. There was likely a woman involved I'm sure, can't all just be about football, can it?

We'll have more as the sports media jumps on it like an Osama sighting.

Porter was issued a summons on a misdemeanor battery charge after the Sunday altercation that began inside the Palms hotel-casino, Las Vegas police Officer Martin Wright said.

"They went outside. In the valet area, one struck the other, causing a small laceration above the eye," Wright said Monday, calling the injury minor.

Porter could face up to a year in jail and up to a $1,000 fine, Wright said, but no court date was immediately available.

Dolphins coach Cam Cameron said Porter, a three-time Pro Bowl pick, told him about the incident Monday morning.
