FIRST FOOTBALL PLAYER WOUNDED IN THE BUTTOCKS SINCE ALABAMA'S FORREST GUMP: Joey Porter, the All-Pro linebacker for the Pittsburgh Steelers who was shot in the buttocks and upper leg outside a bar last week, visited Steelers practice today and assured his teammates that he's feeling fine. Though he was shot as an innocent bystander in a drive-by shooting, the injury did not prevent Porter from being selected today in my office's fantasy football pool draft- though it wasn't by my team, the Dell Vikings.
