Uh, yeah? Luckily Harrison's psychosis apparently helps him sack NFL quarterbacks.

Re: James Harrison Says Obama Only Wants Him For His Ring

I really think Harrison is retarded. Its a honor to go to the White House and meet the President. Its one of the highest honors in this Country and hes knocking it because they only want the Steelers there because they won the SB.

Well duh. They cant invite every team from every league every year to the White House. Its also a reward for being a great team and winning your leagues championship. You have to accomplish something to get this high honor. Its not handed to just anyone. Harrison should feel honored that the White House honors a team for winning a game played by kids since theres alot of vets from wars and other heros here in the States who probably deserve the honor more.

I really think Harrsion has little common sense. Its also really shocking that he wouldnt want to meet Obama who is this Countrys first Africian American President.

Re: James Harrison Says Obama Only Wants Him For His Ring

Another observation about Harrison and the NFL in general.

The NFL steroid testing program still isn't all that effective IMO.

New generation hard to detect steroids(HGH etc.) are coursing through the veins of far far too may players IMO.

Harrison was too small to stick in the NFL and struggled to make it in the league even getting cut four times and now he is a monster NFL defensive MVP? That just doesn't happen.

I would bet large cash that Harrison is guilty of using performance enhancers in a big way. Dude has violent outbursts all the time and he grew in size like the Hulk.

Check out this article on a long longtime former Steelers doctor and try and tell me Harrison couldn't possibly be a product of the juice.

Does he even know that it is customary to invite people who have done exemplary things to the White House?...Effing Forrest Gump was smart enough to know that and attend like 4 times. Harrison doesn't have the brain capacity to understand that the White House has no loyal rooting interests being that it symbolizes a national government.


I don't know why this is a story why we have to be subjected to it because it is moronic and doesn't make damn sense.

Thumbs down Re: James Harrison Says Obama Only Wants Him For His Ring

Well this guy is a Prime Example of an Overnight star getting a Cocky ass attitude. Harrison is a very average player who didn't do shit his whole career and now he wants all the attention! Let's face it, he shouldn't have won the D MVP it should have been WARE.

Re: James Harrison Says Obama Only Wants Him For His Ring

After thinking about this some more I wondered what some of his Steeler teammates think about this. Id love to hear what players like Big Ben or Polamalu have to say about Harrison.

I try not to think about it. I hate roids in sports and I have a feeling you are correct.

Ive always been afraid the Skins would win the SB for the first time since 1991 and then we would find out half the team was on roids.

Re: James Harrison Says Obama Only Wants Him For His Ring

He should go to the White House. If he chooses not to, I don't think it means that he's on steroids. He may well be, who knows. Steroids was a huge problem in football that was never really dealt with that then magically became a baseball problem. Football steroids go back to the early 60s, Lyle Alzado, etc. . It never stopped. Franck Wychek failed a test in 1994 and was shipped out of Ashburn. He was drafted as a TE and Norv wanted him to be a fullback. All the while it has been ignored. It's so obvious that professional football is awash in steroids compared to baseball which gets all the heat. Totally bizarre. College offensive lines that are averaging 320 pounds? The original Hogs featured Center Jeff Bostic who weighed 253 lbs. The heaviest man was Jacoby at 305.
