Went out on top - after shooting (allegedly) and killing a guy.
Very cool article on Marvin Harrison - take off the Orange glasses and many things point to him being a scumbag when you do not downplay the legal "stuff" like being involved with a murder. As cool as Tommy Kane.
I guess if OJ is a HOFer, Marvin should be considered too.
Have you ever wondered what happened to former Indianapolis Colt and Super Bowl winner Marvin Harrison?
In 2008, a year before his retirement, a strange thing happened to the Philadelphia native on his way to ending his NFL Hall of Fame career. He found himself involved in a shooting incident, not once but twice. The second time Harrison’s name came up in a shooting it involved the death of the victim of the previous shooting. The same victim involved in the first shooting. According to reports this much we know:
The source said the alleged victim (a known local drug dealer), came into the bar, Playmakers, (a bar which Marvin Harrison owns), about 5 p.m. and engaged in an argument with Harrison. The victim then left the bar, heading to his car, with Harrison following. Gunfire broke out and the victim was hit in the hand. The victim’s car was riddled with bullets. Marvin Harrison denied any involvement in the shooting but admitted getting into a fight with the victim.
A source told the Philadelphia Daily News that a 2-year-old boy suffered a cut under his eye from glass that shattered when an errant bullet hit a car windshield, according to police. Originally it was reported that a young girl had been injured. When police came to the scene, no one would identify the shooter. Yet the police found at least 6 shell casings on the ground near Harrison’s garage that matched the bullets recovered from the shooting victims vehicle.
A year or so later, the victim did an interview with ESPN:60 where he openly identified Marvin Harrison as the shooter. A few weeks later, the victim was gunned down in front of a North Philly take out joint. As he lay dying, his final statement to police when they asked him who did the shooting was, “ Y'all already know, the same thing from before, it was Marvin Harrison”.
Go ahead and attack me - but not everyone who wears Orange is a good person, that's life. And to defend them when it seems logical that they were involved in some very bad stuff because they wore the jersey of the team that you root for is ridiculous.
