Porter was just recently cut by the Dolphins and has a visit scheduled with the Arizona Cardinals, who have to replace Karlos Dansby.

Ironically, the Dolphins just signed Dansby away from the Cardinals, which then allowed them to release Porter.

Buffalo will have a tough time selling themselves to Porter, who has made it known he would like to play closer to his home in California.

That said, a recently released aging veteran like Porter probably can’t be choosey when it comes down to his next NFL team.

The alt rockers will now tour up the East Cost through most of October, and will then move into the Great Lakes Region for the end of the month. They will perform in Madison, Wisc., on Halloween, and in Iowa City, Iowa, to finish things up on November 1st.

Gamer fans will be treated to a few Crue tracks during the course of play, namely “Dr. Feelgood,” “Kickstart My Heart” and “Live Wire.” “Feelgood” was also used in the first story trailer for the game’s promotion.

Brütal Legend’s soundtrack is a heavy metal collection that spans the musical genre from hair and industrial metal to heavy and doom metal. All 108 tracks were specifically chosen by the game’s creator and developer Tim Schafer, a metal afficionado in his own right.

The game’s plot is the story of Eddie Riggs, voiced by actor/singer Jack Black, a roadie who is sucked into and then stuck in a fantasy world inspired by the artwork of heavy metal album covers. Eddie is the reluctant and unlikely hero battling evil forces to save the humans of this world enslaved by demons.

Brütal Legend is scheduled for release on October 13, 2009, for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Other metal bands featured include Motorhead, Lita Ford, Scorpions, Black Sabbath, Manowar, Anthrax and many more.

The album, released on August 18th, is the band’s fourth studio collection and its first in more than five years. Earlier this summer, the band was up in arms at the illegally leaked version that made its way onto the Internet.

The band’s frontman, Stephen Jenkins, asked all fans that illegally downloaded the album to donate money that would have been spent on the album to a local charity.

The trek begins November 3rd in Michigan and will find the rockers in casinos, clubs, and college campuses through December.

The Rejects are supporting “When the World Comes Down,” which was released last December and includes the massive hit “Gives You Hell.”

Taking Back Sunday released “New Again” in June. They premiered “Where My Mouth Is” on MTV’s “It’s On with Alexa Chung.”

Starting in November, the boys of AAR are heading back out on the road to co-headline a US tour with another Blink guest band, namely Taking Back Sunday. The tour takes flight November 3rd at Michigan State University and, like birds flying south for the winter, finishes off in Miami Beach. The bands will take turns closing out the shows.

Between now and then, AAR is headed to the U.K., Belgium and Germany to squeeze in a few shows for European fans.

Nikki Sixx confirmed the news on his MySpace blog, “Yes Tommy messed up his hand pretty bad, and yes accidents do happen and yes frustration does happen to everybody including Tommy who would rather play drums (even with a damaged hand) than just about anything in the whole world.”

He will miss a few shows, but the band opted to replace him rather than cancel any dates. Sevendust drummer Morgan Rose will fill in while Tommy recovers.

Sixx gushed about Rose, “I think Morgan needs a standing ovation for his dedication to kicking ass and helping not only Motley Crue out, but the road crew and everybody else out here whose life’s (sic) would been effected (sic)… Thank you bro.”

“I feel like we’re ending being out for quite a long time, touring and ‘Saints of Los Angeles’ and the Carnival of Sins and ‘Red, White & Crue,’” said bassist Nikki Sixx. “[We’re] really going away on a big high to start working on writing a new record and looking forward to the next Crue Fest, which’ll probably be in 2011.”

Sixx said that he and bandmates Mick Mars and Tommy Lee have all been working on new material for the band’s follow-up album from 2006’s “Saints of Los Angeles.” Currently all four members are working on solo projects.

“Any time any of us are writing, that always comes up,” said Sixx. “I was actually working on something the other day for Sixx:AM and immediately was like, ‘This is so Motley…’ It’s an interesting process; it can take anywhere from six months to a year, but the good news is there’s no rush, y’know?”

While they are playing at the Download Festival this summer, Vince said that life is more calm. “When You’re young and it’s your first tour, you hear these stories and you wanna trash your hotel room - that’s great, go ahead and do it.”

The wise owl he is, he added: “But at the end of the tour when they go and deduct for the broken TV and the broken furniture and you go ‘How come I didn’t make any money on that tour’ - then you go, “Oh!”
