Love how when he played he was scary af. But when he’s just chilling with his mom and talking to the camera he seems chill af. Hell of a player. Like a mix of Brady and Ray Lewis. Low expectations to impossible feats.
He and Dwight Freeney were such an inspiration for me as he was a short defensive player and i was 6 foot as well. I always said to myself that if he could do I could do it. Of course my career never went anywhere but i always loved seeing him and Freeney play
As a Ravens fan, it hurts every time I am reminded that James Harrison was on our team and we cut him. We could have had Ray Lewis, Terrell Suggs and James Harrison in our linebacking corps. Can you imagine that defence?! Despite that, I have nothing but respect for James Harrison. His underdog story is admirable and he was always a headache in Ravens-Steelers games
@@DreChilly Could have been even better than 2000. The 2006 Ravens defence was also historically great and we lost to the Colts when they did not score a TD because our offence did not show up. If we have James Harrison on that team, we probably hold the Colts to 2-3 field goals (if not less) and beat them, beat the Pats, crush the Bears and win a Super Bowl. All of a sudden, that 2006 defence is one of the greatest ever.
In hockey I was suspended for 10 games for sending a girl to the hospital... but the film showed that it was her fault... she did the 3 things you never do when your about to get hit
I like James but respect your mom. Til this day and I'm 52. I don't curse in front of my mother. I would still get an ashtray thrown at me and she don't smoke.
The type of dude who has no filter and will say whatever he wants to say, regardless of what it is or who he’s around. He just doesn’t care… you can just see it in his face. I wish I was more like that lol! 😂
Seeing his relationship with mother gives me hope for mine. My mom tried to kick me out 3 times before I was 18. I was a bad kid though so I don't blame her.
There is no bad kid, only bad circumstances. Those circumstances can affect a child’s emotional and behavioral response. But for the majority of the time, a child did nothing wrong and was influenced by a bad adult.
That's a huge distinction, sorry Mom. He was the only child that you had with your late husband and you tried to lump him in with the kids you brought into the marriage. Worth arguing with your mother about. And I recently lost mine. Still wouldn't let her get away with that.
That Steelers defense in the 2000s was a nasty unit. Had Harrison and Woodley on the edges, Farrior and Foote/Timmons in the middle, Casey Hampton, Aaron Smith and Keisel on the Dline, and Troy Polamalu, Ryan Clark on the back end. Ike Taylor was a solid CB. The Steelers were going to draft Revis in 07 before the Jets traded up right in front of Pit and stole him. I always imagine Revis in that defense
I am proud of this brother. He survived himself and thrived. Been there, done that and I am a success myself. Plus I am a Steelers' fan and James gave me a lot of great years!
Because gms and scouts spend to much time measuring a hand and taking height measurements and such instead of evaluating talent and when they pick wrong and won't admit it they won't give up on a bust so guys like James yearly slip threw the cracks .
That man was a Raven and we let him get away. And I don’t mean he was on the roster. I mean James is the most ravens like non Raven that didn’t ever get to Raven.
It is interesting how his stubborn attitude and personality created so many setbacks for him in his early life and career, but made him unstoppable once he became established. The difference was finding a positive focus in his life.
As a life long browns fan could not stand him at all 🤣 but he actually seems really cool and he was just a badass on that field scary but when he dropped that drunk browns fan out on the field not cool bro or the hit on masiqua
His final year...he was selfish, self absorbed, unwilling to come alongside younger players, became a distraction-not a motivation...became angry at Tomlin & those around him...don't let the door hit you on the way out...no class.
