I am sick of people who question Portis because he speaks his mind and those same people get frustrated when other players give cliche answers to question. Portis is an honest player who gives it his all on the field, and that is all that matters.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the wording was to generate web hits, which it certainly has, both here and on SI.com.
I guess what hooskins is trying to get at is that when posting links of articles, try to lean less for the shock value and more for what the article is saying when choosing a title. This particular thread doesn't necessarily do it, but so many on the website are guilty of doing this.
If SI.com saw Portis sitting down outside the stadium before a game the title would read:
"Portis sits out week 1"
