What's up with Marvin Harrison ?

Talk about the AFC, NFC, the NFL Draft, College Football... anything football that has no Washington Football Team relevance.

What's up with Marvin Harrison ?

Post by 1niksder »

Randy Moss II :?: :?: :?:

There is no bigger Harrison fan than the guy who rents this corner of the sports page. It doesn't matter to me whether he talks to the media or blows us off. When he is done, he will be a first-ballot Hall of Famer and will have records that only Jerry Rice will exceed.
On Sunday night, though, he was selfish and small, not a whole lot different than the players -- Terrell Owens and Chad Johnson and others -- to whom he is often favorably compared.
Maybe it wasn't apparent to those who watched the game on TV -- NBC dropped the ball on Harrison's pre-halftime disappearing act -- but Harrison put on a display that was as embarrassing as it was out of character.
As the Colts lined up to try an Adam Vinatieri field goal just before halftime, Harrison casually made a beeline for the locker room, a move reminiscent of LeBron James. He hadn't been a big part of the offense, catching just one pass, but why fret? The Colts were poised to take a 24-7 lead. Who cares who's getting the love? But Harrison wasn't interested in staying involved.
As the field-goal team lined up for the attempt, and the Colts' teammates stood on the sideline awaiting that final play, Harrison was disappearing into the tunnel, his back to the field of play.
Then came the fourth quarter, the Colts leading comfortably, when Manning threw a rare pass to Harrison, who caught it, then had it stripped easily by Philadelphia's Lito Sheppard.
That wasn't the issue, though. The issue was, Harrison just stood there, making no effort to chase down Sheppard as he returned the ball.

Before halftime, perhaps MH had to take a dump. My 2 cents

As for the fourth quarter...hey, everyone has a bad day.

Marvin Harrison is definately not a randy moss...so he's a little pissed he's not getting the ball more. so what. that was smart of him to not say anything verbally, but by letting his actions let everyone know that he is unhappy. i gotta admit though, Payton Manning has been looking to Reggie Wayne a lot more than Harrison.

Maybe he's just upset that he isn't performing well in the Hogs.net fantasy league for Team Dukes.

See, this is a case where the player gets teh benefit of the doubt after years of good behavior. It doesn't negate what happened last night....but he gets some slack for being such a class act for so many years.
