I got it:

Harrison was taunting the opponent on the field.

TO was taunting the media.

Don't be shocked. I hold them both to the same standard. That's the difference between my mode of thought and that which I argued against in the other thread. You and I both know this thread won't get half as heated as the other thread because everyone's patron saint receiver Marvin Harrison just did what no one would ever imagine he could do. He cost his team 15 yards by putting his own agenda before the team.

Also, like one other poster in this thread so succinctly pointed out, T.O.'s blunder didn't cost the team anything on the next drive. Marvin's blunder cost them an immediate 3 points.

Just as everyone is piling on T.O. the unthinkable happens. I stand by my belief that a penalty is a penalty is a penalty.

Even if the end did justify the means, tell me exactly at what point those 15 yards of field position we lost just suddenly vanished.

There's no double standard. Sorry, just don't see it.

I don't care that TO's penalty didn't cost us. That is hardly the point. It was stupid. Marvin's was stupid.

Same result.

You weren't part of the double standard party in the other thread. You just dislike T.O. and though what he did was stupid. Marvin was stupid too. We are in agreeance.

I like Marvin Harrison, but he isn't this saint that the media try to paint him out to be. He whines and pouts about not getting the ball just as much as T.O. The media just doesn't talk about it. I bet they only briefly mention the 15 yard penalty from tonight.

Manning gets blamed when the Colts lose big play off games, but Harrison is a major reason why the Colts struggle against good defenses. He is a small receiver. He is about the size of the DBs which is why they cover him so well and he is unable to get separation.

Let me break it down further. T.O.s blunder cost the team 15 yard. Marvin's blunder cost the team 15 yards and a FG on the very next drive. (15 yds + 3 pts the other way) The skins punted on the very next drive after the T.O. blunder. Clear?

some of you are missing the bigger picture....this guy is obssessed with self-promotion. And the irony of it is that he does not get that the focus and energy he spends defending HIMSELF...or pumping HIMSELF up....or accusing other of dissing HIM....or complaing about not getting HIM the ball....could be better spent on him actually focusing on catching the ball, blocking, or being a leader. Maybe the time he spends "creating" TD dances should be spent on trying to help this team get to the playoffs....he is the ultimate mercenary and winning a Super Bowl or being inducted to the HOF is the last thing on his mind...his vision is short sighted...he has no goals other than to get paid and get instant gratification/responses from his behaviour on a daily basis

Simply put, he is not a winner

Right, and they punted from which yard line?

You know where this is going, right?

Please name me any WR in the NFL that is not obsessed with self promotion. The ones you consider saints are the ones that quietly do the exact same things as the spotlight players. I know you really don't think there are only 3-5 wide receivers in the whole NFL that self promote. The WR position is one big self promotion. The only difference between the T.Os/Chad Johnsons of the league and other WRs is the amount of cameras jammed into their faces on a daily basis. Why don' you write a letter to Jamaica Rector or Sam Hurd and ask them what they think about themselves. If you're a WR in the NFL you self promote. Your comment about TO not being a winner is enough to make me turn in for the night. You must really have an affection for Campbells soup. I'll pick up where I left off tomorrow.

This simply doesn't matter to me.

We could have onside kicked it, got possession or recovered a fumbled kickoff and it still wouldn't change my opinion. It is a preventable penalty and therefore stupid.

make all the excuses you want, but he is paid 10M and he drops balls when he is in traffic...and more dissapoiting he drops passes when he is NOT in traffic...you can preen and promote all you want if you can back it up
