    Marvin Harrison Released

    http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=090...s&confirm=true

    Its sad to be in an era when players dont play for one team that defined them for their whole career.

    its all about cap money, Harrison didn't want to mess with his current contract and got released - 13.4m is too big a figure to devote to a WR.

    Irsay says 'nothing's been determined'

    Irsay, however, told the Star that Condon was "premature" in his announcement.

    the NFL is more of a journeyman's league. Always has been.
    Baseball is definitely a tad bit sad now, but a lot of that had to do with the onslaught of free agency.

    I think that makes the league better,honestly. Soccer has been like that for years and its the biggest game in the world.

    I love players moving....I don't wanna see players moving every year like Kenny Lofton but even if your a legend I wouldn't mind seeing you play for a different team.

    To a point, if a player is still in his prime, but Harrison is way past that according to his numbers. But ill give it to you, it was interesting seeing Bruce in a 49ers uni last year and he was their best offensive player. But thats not sayin much.

    I think seeing Montana in a Chiefs uni was interesting, Favre in a Jets, etc. Players moving teams should always be a part of a league. It makes the league have more parity.

    He'll go to Philly and play for 2 more years then retire. He'll be productive but never the receiver he was in Indy.

    Maybe there is a few, Montana had something left in the tank so to speak. But look at these players, it wasnt enjoyable to watch them play in another uni.

    Johnny Unitas w/ San Diego
    OJ Simpson w/ San Fransisco
    Earl Campbell w/ New Orleans
    Emmitt Smith w/ Arizona

    I really didnt find it enjoyable to see Favre in a Jets uniform. But then again so much was made about Favre retiring that just watching him wasnt fun anymore.

    Jerry Rice in a Seattle Uni wasn't that fun to watch; he was the 3rd or 4th option. Had some amazing catches though.

    I dont remember which playoff game it was, but Engram dropped the pass in the end zone for the go ahead score. I think it was against the Rams now. But anywho, I was saying to my buddy, how in the **** do you not throw to Rice. He would of been $$$$ on that.

    I think Rice leaving San Francisco was the most shocking. Right up there with Emmitt leaving Dallas.
