Clinton Portis in Esquire: How a Young Man Lives

[MTK]

"I like having my own little party within the party," Portis says. "I don't walk in dissing nobody or taking nobody's space, and I don't come here with a whole bunch of dudes. That's a fight waiting to happen. I'm 220, man, solid, and my hands is fast, so you don't want that trouble with me. But I don't have many altercations, because I'm a calm dude and I can walk away from a situation. I'm cool. And I always keep a bunch of females around, because women can bring the haters down. There can be one dude in the club with trouble in his mind, a Dallas fan with enough alcohol in his system to start something crazy, but he sees all them women, he forgets the beef he got with me."
