Clearly the writer has something against Portis. "I can't please everyone ... I've gotta have fun" is a little different than, "I don't give a crap if I piss off my teammates." He's putting words in Portis' mouth ... this is slanted and vacuous journalism. However, going on Clinton's quotes alone (which I'm assuming the reporter actually got right), the man does sound like an immature asshole. That's fine as long as he continues to run for 1,500 yards every year. But the writer is trying to portray him as a locker room cancer and I don't see any evidence of that right now.
