said the Porters wanted out of Washington. I know many think it's impossible for Porter to have wanted to abandon his friend but this post pretty clearly says that the Porters wanted to come back to Columbia and this was before Romar had been fired. I think the Porters made a decision that was best for their family and not the Romar/Senior friendship.
