What if this turned into a Ron Artest situation as far as her possibly attacking the wrong person? I'm all for someone standing up for themselves but because of things like this is why our crime rate is so high since someone brought that up. Very few people seem to know how to respond to any slight or disrespect nowadays except with fists and even as far enough sadly as responding with some form of weapon. If this had involved a mother of a player from another team with a fan of anyone other than a rival team I'd be willing to wager the reaction to it would be quiet different from posters on this site. No one was in harms way from all of the reports on the situation and frankly if all of us responded like this to all of the times we were confronted and dissrespected, a vast majority of us would have spent quite a bit of time in a local prison. I firmly believe in fighting blood, tooth, and nail when yourself or friends and family r in harms way and you have no other courses of action, but from the information that come out about this, this was not one of those situations. oh and don't be surprise if Mama Portis gets sued because of her response.
