I remember all the comments about how "Portis' Pockets Straight", back in the day. Guess it isn't true. I didn't like him his final few years here, but i sort of feel bad for him. He was a good football player but when you would hear him talk, it was evident he was not very intelligent. Very sad case really. He owes 500,000 to his own mother, and over 400,000 dollars in unpaid child support to four women. He made more than 42 million in his NFL career, but he obviously blew his money and made bad investments. I do sort of blame his handlers and all the people who were leeching off of him.
He has like no future really, he can't go into broadcasting or announcing, i wonder what he will do. Maybe the skins give him some kind of job here helping out so at least he can earn an income....

You have to remember that agent fees and taxes takes probably half. So now you're talking 21 million. Certainly a lot of money but when you have gambling issues, numerous babies and baby mom's to take care of, homes and car notes, insurance on all that, plus the life style...travel, jewelry. Then you add in a bad investment or two...that 21 million can go real quick.
