smuvtalker Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Harrison, who was fined $75,000 for a hit that knocked Mohamed Massaquoi out of the Steelers' win over the Cleveland Browns, said Tuesday on Fox Sports Radio's "Into The Night with Tony Bruno" that he might consider retirement. "I'm going to sit down and have a serious conversation with my coach tomorrow and see if I can actually play by NFL rules and still be effective," Harrison told guest host Judy McDonald. "If not, I may have to give up playing football." Boo hoo James. This guy has got to be kidding me! You get fined 75,000 for hits that were obviously with intent to harm, and now you're ready to give up football??
GOBILLS78 Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Whaa. My brute strength and unbelievable football skills can't adapt!
DarthICE Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 LMAO So he considers cheap shots playing football? Hey hit the bricks ahole. These head to head shots are uncalled for and you are taking a chance on ruining someone elses career.
DanInUticaTampa Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 to be fair, only one of those was really a cheap shot.
GOBILLS78 Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 to be fair, only one of those was really a cheap shot. I couldn't care less about the hits. I just find his woe-is-me response chuckle-worthy.
Heitz Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Let's just hope it happens before the game against us...
bobshaw81 Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 He is a grown man and crying, whining, like a little baby. Its funny
Metal Man Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 This has the same feeling as one of the weekly "I am done with the Bills forever" threads. Weak and whine filled. There is something to be said about the continuing pu55ification of the NFL though.
The Senator Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 James Harrison excused from practice Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on October 20, 2010 12:24 PM ET It looks like Steelers linebacker James Harrison is taking this retirement charade a little further... Link - PFT/NBC Sports What a child.
billsfaninvgs Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 He is full of poop..... He is talking out of butt... He isn't going to retire. He is just trying to play the victim
Wayne Fontes Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Is his wife is exempt from the new head-shot rules? He might need a divorce after he retires.
Malazan Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 It would have been better if the NFL took the decision out of his hands.

Chandler#81 Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 I think he's a dirty player overall. He joins a long list of Stiller LB's with this mantle. Unfortunatey, he can't be trusted to follow through on what he says..
MDH Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 LMAO So he considers cheap shots playing football? Hey hit the bricks ahole. These head to head shots are uncalled for and you are taking a chance on ruining someone elses career. The thing that bothers me is his attitude. He plays a physical game which I like and sometimes guys get caught up in the moment and go too far. I can live with that. But Harrison is happy to hurt people. He likes doing it and thinks he hasn't really injured the player if they're just "taking a little nap." I'm not sure how a player can have this attitude/PoV in 2010 when everybody knows how serious concussions are but I'd be happy if all players with this attitude retired so guys who are out there just trying to help their team win while not demolishing another player's career can get the accolades they deserve. And btw, WTF is up with the player's union? Why is it that they only protect the interests of their member's wallets and not their health?
shrader Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Please retire. No one will miss you after this pathetic response.
erynthered Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Isn’t there a little bit of hypocrisy here folks? Granted I’m all for players getting fined or suspended for blatant illegal hits. But out of one side of the NFL’s mouth they’re saying we’re worried about player safety and then out of the other they say they want an 18 game regular season.
dave mcbride Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 My my my. One of the dirtiest players in the league the last few years is protesting his justly deserved punishment. Cry me a freaking river.
bbb Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 I'm sure his 2nd career in molecular engineering awaits.

The only way he knows how to play the game is by using violence.We have reached such a low point in the NFL. That is the most stupid and retarded statement I have ever heard from an NFL player. Retire because he does not know how else to play the game!!! What a moron!!!
