Funny, I was about to say the same exact thing; I figured it was a thread about Ty Law asking for too much money.

Fortunately, for Marvin, he isn't employed on Rte. 1 in Foxboro, MA. If so, he'd be on death row. Just kidding...I think.

Can you imagine how much crap there would be from media and fans if Harrison was a Pat?

But over time, the investigation uncovered evidence that seemed to point back in Harrison’s direction:
*Harrison and Dixon squabbled for two weeks prior to the shooting after they exchanged words in Harrison’s bar, Playmakers, on 28th Street near Cambridge.
*Ballistics tests proved shell casings found at the shooting scene were fired from Harrison’s gun, a Belgian-made FN5.7, law enforcement sources said.
*Detectives found the firearm in Harrison’s garage on Thompson Street.
*Witnesses and Dixon separately identified Harrison as the shooter, the sources said.
The lawsuit, which was filed Sept. 2, is worded in a way that would find Harrison liable regardless of the outcome of the criminal investigation.
“The defendant intentionally and outrageously shot the plaintiff,” reads one portion of the lawsuit, while another section states Dixon, 32, was shot by someone else who used Harrison’s gun.
“Look, it’s our position that Marvin Harrison was the shooter,” said Robert M. Gamburg, Dixon’s attorney.
“But even if you believe the other theory, Marvin’s gun was still used in the shooting, so he was negligent for leaving the weapon where someone else could obtain it.”

What a litany. Even I didn't think there was that much. Sometimes in moments of serious introspection (Halley's Comet comes around more frequently), I think that perhaps I've got a genuine persecution complex when it comes to the Pats and the crap they receive from the media. Then something like this comes along, and I realize that I'm not as whacked as I thought (at least for the moment).
