The scumbag who did it, Wade, is now on the Vikings.
(But Mawae could still rear his ugly head...)
Titans remembered
Safety Rodney Harrison [stats] had little interest in discussing the fact that his 2006 season ended against the Tennessee Titans [team stats], this week’s preseason foe. Harrison will probably take to his grave that Bobby Wade’s block on him was illegal, but he’s moving on.
Wade, incidentally, signed a free agent deal with Minnesota and won’t be in town this weekend.
“It has no bearing on what’s going on with me and our team,” Harrison said. “Last year is last year. It’s a new team we have. They have a new team. It’s a matter of going out there and executing and seeing what happens.”
You and me both, however there were press reports quoting players after they'd seen tape and they were none too pleased with the non-call.Meriweather and Wilson and Gay need work as do the many untested backups, so I don't see him playing much.
Also, depite the chipiness of that game and the presence of the dirtiest player in football (Mawae), I didn't see anything dirty about the block on Rodney.
Seems to my memory, he was trying to vault over someone to make a play and he was blocked.
It's not like he kicked him in the knee or something.
It was easy to see, yet the refs didn't call anything. Of course I'm going on memory, but that was my impression.

To say that game was chippy, was an understatement and I heard there were some unsportsmanlike remarks.
What I saw was a play which prevented the defensive player from penetrating.
If his intent was to take his knee out, no one could know, but that's what was in front of him as far as I remember. And the play was legal.
Yeah, we can all speculate as to the intent of the play, but apparently Bruschi vents some of his anger regarding that play/game in his new book. One perspective I would love to hear from is BB. If we could get his true candid thoughts on the play, then that would be good enough for me. Of course we would only get BB coach speak, but that's just fine too.
