Default Marvin Harrison, gg

Shots Fired Outside a Bar Owned by Marvin*Harrison - Music City Miracles

Quote:
This is going to be an interesting story to watch. As gramsey and august added in the fanposts, there was a shooting outside a bar owned by Colts' receiver Marvin Harrison earlier this week. It seems pretty obvious that Harrison was involved somehow but no charges have been filed yet.
The story goes something like this; A man enters the bar and argues with Harrison. He leaves with Harrison following him to the parking lot where shots break out. Harrison owns a gun that was found at a car wash he owns and tests proved it was fired recently. The gun also matches the slugs that were recovered from the scene. Again, no charges have been filed, but the evidence seems to overwhelmingly suggest that Harrison was involved.
I have no idea how far this will go, or if Harrison will face any sanctions from the NFL, but it is an interesting story none the less. Harrison has never been involved in anything like this before that we know of. The people at Stampede Blue are all, Marvin would never do anything like this, but this just proves again that we really don't know the athletes that we think we know so well. Not passing any judgement, just saying..



Harrison asked about shooting - The Boston Globe


Seeing all kinds of stuff but nothing difinitive... one story has it that Marvin pummelled the guy and shot him with a 50 cal. monster and Marvin has like 25 guns and one of them matched up to the bullets, but you would think that he would be arrested by now if it did. However, the guy who was shot refused to name Marvin as the shooter. No idea if it's true.

Anybody hear any news?

Yeah, something mega-fishy about his story. How many 50 caliber hand guns are on teh streets? I'm thinking not many. I'm a die-hard Colts fan and if something comes of this, I'll be upset, but whatev. I've always thought most athletes are grade-A dickheads and closer to working at McDonalds than anything else. Luckily for the Colts, Reggie Wayne is now their #1 receiver. Along with Anthony Gonzalez and Dallas Clark, the Colts are fine on offense. Harrison hardly played last year anyway after hurting his knee.

It's also possible that this guy pissed of Marvin after he played too much GTA4.

Yeah, this country has a ridiculous obsession with guns and therefore gun-violence is out of hand. I wish there was a certified way to keep crazy insane motherfuckers from owning guns, while normal people would not be affected by such restrictions.

You know, gotta have guns to keep us safe from the government.
