James Harrison officially signs with Pats

[Deus Irae]

A bizarre lot over there. JH has basically been warming the bench then was released by Tomlin. So they are upset they lost a bench warmer as well as upset the player that was fired decided to sign somewhere else that was the best situation for him? Huh.

That's not really all that different from this place when Welker went to Denver.

My buddies have flat out conceded. Lol! They're off to hockey, and renouncing the Steelers. Can't make this stuff up!

 

[TomPatriot]

There is nothing Harrison knows that the pats could use about the steelers. He will be a situational player and maybe give the the a decent pass rusher. I doubt there is any intel the Pats need from him.

There may be dislikes they can exploit. Some OL hate bull rushes. Some hate swim moves. Knowing those tendencies has value.

Silverback is a blatantly racist term....I mean, please. One does NOT call a black man "silverback" in 2017 America...unless you happen to reside in Rapistburgertrippingcoachburgh...

So I should go down to Miami and offer my apologies for calling the old basketball player the same name that every other person there, black or white, was calling him?

Let me just call for that reservation right now.

Tool.

HA HA.. Nice clean bag, wearing a new jersey, and the draping the (oh so frightening), Tolerable Towel.
LOL. Harrison signing is 2nd, behind a SB. .


... maybe

absolutely.....good idea

its never too late to make amends for past transgressions

even i have made mistakes in life.......to err is human

 

[K. Dog]

I mean there has to be a reason that the Steelers didnt play him at all, right ? Apart from all the lol Tomlin memes and jokes he must have lost more than a step to be released unceremoniously around week 16.

But the Pats worked him out before signing (unlike what they did with another high profile free agent this season)

JH was fired by the Steelers, in season at that. Welker wasn't fired by the Patriots, Welker chose to take the offer of the Broncos instead of the Patriots' offer. That is an apples to oranges comparison.
Show me an example of a Patriot in season cut that signed with a rival and where PF was hysterically outraged at that player? Now you have a comparison.
It may have happened, I simply don't recall...

Bahahahahahahahahahaha! Wait.... Hahahahahahahahaha! Incredible signing and I absolutely love it. Someone has to post the first YouTube jersey burning which should be very soon!!!!!

The Emperor is from Caribou, ME. They don't have dentists there.

I find that very surprising because the toothbrush was invented in Maine. Had it been invented anywhere else it would have been called a teethbrush.

No. The reason you should go down to Miami right now because currently it's 70 degrees there and where you are you're probably scraping icicles from your windshield. Carry on ...

You're trying to split a hair. Don't be that guy.

 

[TennisBallHead]

The best fan on their sites is Bethlehem Steel. If you want to see how the Patriots have completely broken a person, look at his posts.

You weren't there on the courts with us, I presume, so you wouldn't know him.

 

[RobertWeathers]

I thought it was mildly interesting to hear the Squealers reached out to Harrison in an attempt to bring him back and he of course declined.

Letting a player go in free agency, compared to cutting a team legacy before the playoffs is hardly splitting hairs.
