If you're set on a prime lens, take a look at an 85mm 1.8. It's a gorgeous piece of equipment for portraits. The clarity is amazing.
But I do agree that the 70-200 2.8 is really versatile if you're shooting sports. It's fast, clear, and has amazing bokeh. And it makes a really wonderful portrait lens, too.
One is small and lightweight, the other fairly large and heavy, so take that into consideration, too.
