It's always the silent ones. Good read.

Yeah, I read this one. Why did we always assume he was a good guy just because he didn't like dance in the endzone?

Also... His father died at age 22.. of natural causes. W T F

I had no idea Harrison was like that. He does a good job of not letting the public know him. I thought he was a pretty classy guy. Wow.

I never understood why some of these guys still want to hang around the hood once they've made it out. What in the hell is this guy doing working the door of a bar that he owns that's located in a bad part of town? WTF??? On top of that it looks like he's shooting people. Harrison is not only a bad guy but he should be in jail.

Innocent until proven guilty. Just becasue some SI report does a little "research" on Marvin doesn't mean it is all true. I trusted the PA judical system much more then this writer, BTW PA dropped the charges.

I didn't know about his alleged assaults, but MH is pretty well known "in the biz" for being a peculiar dude, a loner, and a bit of an ass

Did they? I heard the state's attorney just decided not to pursue charges at this time, meaning if further evidence surfaces, they could move foward with prosecution. Anyway, when your accuser is facing a seperate trial for lying in a criminal investigation, chances are you're in the clear.

Good to know.
I can now with a clear conscience take him OFF my Christmas card list

There goes my comparison to Art Monk, he's more like Charles Bronson in "Death Wish".

Let's be honest...there is a lot on context missing in all of this. The supposed other assault are just one-sided stories. Maybe the "victims" were being more agressive than they are leading us to believe. In that case defending one self could be totally reasoanble. In the case of the shooting who knows how it played out. Was it defense? Apparently no one knows differently. Clearly he shot the gun...and that is bad but when a guy really doesn't have a history of violence(a couple of incidents in a few years doesn't seem all that much to me considering it is easy to imagine that they were self defense) it is hard to see how a guy is simply overly violent. Weird case all around. Maybe it just takes a lot to piss him off so when he does get pissed off he goes way overboard.
