skylive5 Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Unless one has a 'I want to be knocked into next week' or a 'I want to look like roadkill on the field' wish, one should always be very careful about what one says when talking about Mr. Harrison, sir.

Bill Swerski Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 I suppose that Freddie has a little more clout than Todd Pinkston. Then again, that isn't saying much. Harrison constantly talks trash on the field, so he should expect a little thrown back his way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swampnuts Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Anybody else think Dan Patrick was baiting Freddy a bit? He had to know Freddy was going to say something stupid when he asked him to name the Pats DB's. Calling out Harrison is just plain idiotic though. Freddy couldn't tote Rodney's jock. As if the Pats needed any fuel for their fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patsfan04 Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Why they would even give someone wtih 377 yards receiving and 2 TDs on the season the spotlight (or Hot Seat) is beyond me. "Hi, my name is Freddy Mitchell, I can't make noise on the field, so I will make noise off the field." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyBalata Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Ok..I'll admit I was only partly listening, but what did he say that could be considered calling him out? Patrick asked him if he could name the Patriots DBs. Mitchell proceded to name off their numbers...he didn't know their names. But when he got to 37, he said I do know that is Harrison, but then claimed it wasn't part of his job to know their names, he's supposed to know where they will be at in certain coverages and the players go by the numbers, not their names. Did I miss something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jrick35 Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Your *** right Harrison talks alot of trash...why ...because he can and backs it up.....sure he should expect some talk back but only from top elite type players not from the like of that mohawked fro jack a$$ who steals ideas ( carrying around a fake title belt) from stars like Portis!! 676422[/snapback] And now their are rules for talking trash...dare I say a Hierarchy? One can only talk trash to or about someone whom they have better stats than? I don't even know what Mitchell said but I do know there aren't any rules governing trash talk.

It's all trash talk, but one kind helps the other team get its ire up while the other adds to on field intimidation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godtomsatan Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 If you have the respect for Rodney Harrison you all claim to have, why on earth would you think this non-event would effect the way he prepares for the Super Bowl? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As said earlier in this thread, why the hell is he even on that show? 676493[/snapback] I'm assuming they wanted to get an Eagles offensive player and neither McNabb nor Westbrook wanted to do it so they got someone who they know will say something exciting enough to spend the next few days talking about.

Bill Swerski Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 (edited) The difference is that Rodney talks his trash on the field, not in interviews. 676499[/snapback] That's true. But he still talks more trash than anybody I've seen recently and, oh yeah, plays dirty sometimes. I respect Rodney as a football player, but it pretty much ends there. That said, I don't hold "The People's Champ" in very high regard either. Edited January 28, 2005 by Bill Swerski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrison is already prepared. I look at it as Mitchell was going to have enough problems on the field getting hit by Harrison. Why call him out so when he does rattle your brainpan he has a little bit of extra incentive to rattle it for weeks to come. Whether anyone likes it or not.... Harrison is one tough sucker who doesn't care much about fines and is at the top of his game.... he talks trash a mile a minute on the field, backs it up on almost every play, and now Mitchell is going to be hearing footsteps even when Harrison is on the other side of the field because he knows there is no need to rile Harrison up.

Harrison talks trash on the field, plays dirty on occasion, and isn't held in high regard as a person by many players and fans. That said, he's a pretty *** good safety.

My point is that Rodney Harrison doesn't care what Freddie Mitchell has to say to Dan Patrick. I'm sure only people here who have no football going on this weekend care what Freddie Mitchell has to say to Dan Patrick regarding Rodney Harrison.
