 What's going on the same grave and here with another video and in this video? We're going to talk about James Harrison again the ongoing saga between James Harrison Steelers the Patriots Well the Patriots they haven't even really been commenting on it. I'm sure they just they're just glad to get a good player I'm all played who's been good over his career But between James Harrison the former Steelers Some commentators and analysts people that keep on saying old James Harrison he What a messed up guy and how messed up is this situation? He acts to be released from Pittsburgh. I Did how many videos have we done on it like two or three maybe? But there've been some Steelers fans that come through and be like oh Harrison some somebody said he's the LeBron James of NFL saying not at all man other people said that he He he didn't show up for practice. He didn't show up for practice I think it's my god my guy Lewis said he read that he didn't show up for practice and that he didn't even visit Ryan Shays here in the hospital And Terry Terry Frye she had sent me the link that She had sent me the link that said what's up Logan? She sent me the link that um with Marquis pouncy or Maurice pouncy whichever pouncy brother It is on the Steelers that he was saying that James Harrison's his Steelers legacy is Ruin now since he joined the Patriots So there have been a lot of rumors a lot of different stuff that a lot of different people have been saying as far as James Harrison and Why he left Pittsburgh and why he asked for his release him not showing up to meetings him not showing up to practice Him somebody said I think somebody I think it might have been Lewis to he said he walked out of the stadium Walked out of the stadium for a game or walk the walk out of the stadium when he wasn't gonna be playing that game So it's been a lot of different stuff being said but anyway anyway What this is about? Oh there it goes Raiden said that he skipped practices slept during meetings He did nothing. He did visit Shays here, but not with the rest of the team But what this is about he just posted something on Instagram and he addressed a lot of that stuff He mentioned a lot of that stuff literally all the rumors that people have been talking about So yeah, you're right air and I said yesterday his legacy in Pittsburgh is not ruined People are just upset, but my favorite comment from the video. We did yesterday on this favorite comment I forgot who it was from I think it was from but not McDaniels, but I could be wrong but my favorite comment was Was No, it's definitely not ruined it the NFL is a business the NFL is a business James Harrison's employer released him and He found work with a different with a different He found a different opportunity found work with somebody else He found work with somebody else So it's as simple as that he got fired from one job He got another one with a different company That's it Ain't nothing hard So no his legacy is not ruined Nothing he did was still as is ruined he What football player do you know what football player would you want on your team that wants to actually play? And doesn't play and what football player do you want do you want to be on your team? That's okay with not playing But anyway, this is about the Instagram post that he just put up about 10 15 minutes ago and I'm gonna read it word-for-word cuz I don't want to paraphrase anything. I don't want to Misconstru anything. I don't want to say anything the wrong way. I'm gonna read it word for word But anyway Really quick Monterey say still his fan just mad cuz Bella check swooped him up And they need to relax and get ready to be thrown new England in the AFC championship game Do I think it was a bad move low-key TV not at all not at all Leia said I don't I don't understand how people don't understand that if I get fired from Apple Am I not allowed to work for Samsung? He wanted to keep playing. They didn't want to give him playing time So he found some exactly exactly It's not hard at all. I don't get why people think it's hard. It's not hard at all even if If it happened to a Raven if one of my Ravens even if it was a big Raven of like Terrell sucks Somebody mentioned it yesterday. They said what if Terrell sucks went to the Steelers? I said, oh man I said I would hate that but I would respect it It wouldn't mean that everything he did in Baltimore was ruined. It wouldn't mean that at all It wouldn't mean that not one bit because Baltimore decides. Hey, you know what? We're gonna release you or hey, you know what? We're gonna cut you whether it's a rival team that he goes to or whether it's not In Baltimore decides. Hey, we're gonna move on from then that means they moved on from that person And if that ends up coming back and bite them in the butt, then that's on them. That's on them straight up Yeah, and I know it's because of the way he the way he left, but at the same time if If it still is we're gonna feel like this then they should have never released them They should have never released them. That's on them for releasing him what it comes down to if And I've been frustrated at my job before plenty of times to still get frustrated now But if if my job decides to if they decided to make me go to a different department or something like that Based off of my frustrations or not even know if they fired me If they fired me based off of my frustrations for not being able to do more When I was gonna be told hey engraving you're gonna be doing this this this this this this this this and this But when it comes down to it, I'm not doing any of that I'm gonna be frustrated too. And if they decided to fire me and I go get work with a competitor That's on them. That's on them. That's completely on them And of course, it's all my part too because I'm the one that voiced my frustrations and let it be known and With them knowing what I can do and if they promised me something, but they didn't deliver on that promise course I'm gonna be upset I'm gonna be upset. They owe my boy Chris Irwin Chris I tried to remember your name yesterday, but I couldn't remember because I know you were saying some stuff But I couldn't remember Your name on on the video so my apologies.

Thank you Anyway, and everybody that's coming through. Thank you. I appreciate you Chris. Thank you. So let's let's read this It says if anybody thought I signed a two-year deal with a team in the NFL age 39 to sit on the bench Now he's referring to the Steelers. He's referring to signing a two-year deal with Pittsburgh Anybody thought I assigned a two-year deal with the team in the NFL at age 39 to sit on the bench and collect the check It and a participation trophy sarcasm They're mistaken Participation trophy means when you you get a trophy for just being there being part of the team not for winning But for just being there being part of the team not for doing anything But just for being there being part of the team, but anyway, they're mistaken I didn't sign up to sit on the bench and be a cheerleader. I was clear about that when I signed with Pittsburgh And I was told I would be on the field when I signed when I was asking for reps in camp I got none. I got lip service though. We know what you can do. He's saying this is what Steelers was saying We know what you can do. You don't need the reps But I know what my body needs in order to be in shape to compete and I said so but still zero reps At the beginning of the season when it was clear I didn't have a role anymore I asked to be released and he's saying this at the beginning of the season. So probably First three four games maybe even shorter than that. Who knows? He didn't specify that. He just had the beginning of the season I asked to be released Throughout the season. I was told week in and out that I'd be used I wasn't and Like I said before and I've said before when we first played the Steelers, I think that was weak What was that week three or four? No, I think it was week four We play Steelers in week four And I was just shocked out of my mind because James Harrison wasn't even active that game. What's up too much water? He wasn't even active that game wasn't even active and I was like wow James Harrison somebody that is Pittsburgh Ain't even active for a Ravens and Steelers game. What's up for an Obira? I couldn't believe it But anyway moving on he said at the beginning of the season when it was clear I didn't have a role anymore asked to be released throughout the season I was told weekend and week out that I'd be used. I wasn't I started getting frustrated about the whole thing I asked to not be dressed or take unnecessary practice reps if I wasn't going to play That's what happened for a couple weeks Then we had a game week that I got solid reps in practice and everyone assumed I would play I Got to the stadium four hours early as usual and my locker was empty Meaning he didn't have his his game his his uniform His locker was empty. I Got to the stadium It got to the stadium four hours early as usual and my locker was empty. Nobody said anything to me about being inactive Just an empty locker So they didn't even give him a heads up that he wasn't going to be playing they didn't even give him a heads up that he Was going to be inactive So let's continue anyway Nobody said anything about Nobody said anything to me about being inactive just an empty locker. I act to be released again And I was told no Next he said a couple weeks later. They dressed me for the game So I assume I'm going to play and I get zero reps Still on the sideline the whole game. I asked to be released again. I was told no Then a few days later, they released me so this is referring to um Which game the Patriots game the Patriots game they were friend. He's referring to the Patriots game right here because he said that a Couple weeks later they dressed me for the game So I assume I'm going to play and I get zero reps So he was dressed for the game didn't get any reps stood on the sideline the whole game And he asked to be released again, and he says he was told no then a few days later They released me Because he was released after the Patriots game. No, not after the Patriots game after the um, who did they play after the Patriots? Oh, who do they play after the Patriots? Who do they play after the Patriots because he was he was released right before the Texans game? Who do they play by the Patriots? I know y'all know know they he was released before the Texans game Okay, oh Titans no talking about Titans. Okay. It was after it was after the Patriots game then, okay All right, so the Patriots game it was Patriots then Texans game I feel like so much has happened then over that week It seemed like the Patriots game happened and then the week was just so busy with so much craziness And then it seems like they played somebody else After that or in between the Patriots and Texans, but maybe because it just been so much drama going on in NFL with this whole thing Okay, so I guess it was right after the Patriots game moving on But anyway, so let's go back to this part again So we understand that this was about this was after the Patriots game Okay, so a couple weeks later. They dressed me up for the Patriots game So I assume I'm going to play and I get zero reps stood on the sideline the whole game I asked to be released again. I was told no then a few days later. They released me Then this is where it gets Even more interesting as if it wasn't interesting enough already. This is where it gets even better. I Was never told I would be brought back It was if I bring you back being shape I cleared waivers and they didn't call meaning Pittsburgh Steelers appreciated cowboy that's factor He said it. Yeah, again a Few days later. They released me. I was never told I would be brought back It was if I bring you back being shape. I cleared waivers and they didn't call new England called also So he said still is never called him Never text him never got in contact with him never did anything Telling him or letting him know they wanted to bring him back That's what a lot of these I remember when he was first released a lot of these commentators a lot of these analysts a lot of these NFL guys gurus so to speak a lot of them kept saying oh, yeah Steelers releasing James Harrison. They know nobody's gonna pick him up on waivers They probably gonna bring him back on Monday. He's probably gonna be back with the team by Monday for the Texans game He'll probably be back. Oh Worst case scenario, he'll be back on Tuesday after the Texans game Then some people were saying oh, yeah, this was just to make room for what is it Marcus Gilbert since he's back from suspension now They need a spot on the active roster James Harrison to be right back with Pittsburgh a lot of people assume that and I thought of myself too. I was thinking okay. Maybe these guys are right But that's just how unpredictable the NFL is and that's just how big of a business the NFL is Y'all make sure you all leave a like on the video. It's 45 people in here, but it's only 19 likes What are y'all doing make sure y'all click the thumbs up button? But um, let's get back to this letter So I clear waivers and they didn't call new England called So that addressed that right there also There was also rumors going around that he didn't visit Brian Shays there in the hospital and with that With somebody not visiting somebody in the hospital I Don't think you can hold that against somebody reason being because some people just don't like seeing people in the hospital They don't like seeing that They don't like seeing that so they may just so they can continue to remain strong for that person They may not want to see that person in the hospital because they may have a fear of they may buy They may break down in front of that person and just start crying and then make that person feel bad You can't hold that against somebody so that was a big rumor going on about James Harrison People were saying that he didn't even visit Ryan Shays there in the hospital so Anyway, he says also to be clear ask Ryan if I came to see him in the hospital So basically what he's saying is that he saw Ryan Shays there in the hospital and you can ask Ryan Shays there for proof of that So he must it just must have been a thing where he didn't go see Ryan Shays there with the entire team He did it on his own time and That could be understandable because right now or obviously back then he obviously wasn't feeling the Pittsburgh Steelers Organization because he hadn't been playing So that's that So yeah, he said ask Ryan if I came to see him in the hospital then He goes to Bud DePri and TJ White Because Bud DePri has some comments on him, too But he said I didn't help Bud or TJ Ask TJ if I helped him So he's saying that he helped both of those guys both of those guys are pretty good past Russian especially Bud DePri So he's saying he helped him with their game So again, he said I didn't help Bud or TJ asked TJ if I helped him last page Maybe I didn't handle my frustration the best that I could have if you haven't learned anything about me over the last 16 years That's a long time That's a long time Why aren't any Ravens fans mad that the Ravens didn't keep him? We should be upset. We should be the ones upset not Steelers. He could have been a Raven He could have been a Raven. We had him first not Steelers. We should be the ones that's mad at him We should be the one to say man. He ruined his potential Ravens legacy. That should be us Let me stop playing. No, anyway, maybe I didn't handle my frustration the best that I could have if you haven't learned anything about me over The last 16 years. I'm a competitor to my core. I live and breathe competition I do what it takes to keep my body and my mind ready to be on that field I do it for me. I do it for my family. I do it for my team and I do it for the fans Nothing else to it at the end of the day. This is the best line of the entire post This is the best line for the entire post read this, please I mean listen to this. This is the best best line best line because everything comes down to this this line right here But his last sentence his last sentence Here it goes at the end of the day They made a business decision and so did I that's it And that was it. It's done That's it I Appreciate it too much water. Thank you. That's it That's it At the end of the day, they made a business decision and so did I that's it The last line he could have just wrote the last line and That could have been the whole Instagram post. He ain't even need to write anything else But I'm sure he wrote all that other stuff because he's been hearing all these rumors swirling And he wanted to address him from his mouth from his point of view so Last line was the best line. Let me read it one more time because Everybody that gets upset with him for joining the Patriots You can't be mad you can't be mad at him you can't be Last line one more time at the end of the day they made a business decision and So did I I Appreciate y'all watching.
