Rodney Harrison is the Dirtiest Player in NFL Football
Who knew the New England Patriots will be one of the dirtiest football teams in the NFL?
Get this, New England Patriots own, Rodney Harrison, was voted as the dirtiest player in the league for the second time in three years. Yep, he did it again. Of the 361 NFL Football players who responded, the Patriot got a whopping 23 percent.
‘’It is what it is,’’ Rodney Harrison said. ‘’I’ve been in this league a long time. When you’ve hit as many guys as I have, your reputation extends throughout the league.’’
Yeah yeah. Well, that’s one way of putting it but did it ever occur to this guy that maybe some of his NFL Football peers just plain hate him? Apparently, he is taking the ‘’dirtiest player in NFL Football’’ label pretty well. Heck, he even turned it out to be a good thing.
What a dumbass.
‘’Do I take perverse pride in this?’’ Harrison said. ‘’All I can say is as many guys as say I’m a dirty player, just as many come up and tell me they admire how I play, the hard work, the commitment, the toughness. That’s the pride you’re looking for. I take pride in that.’’
Rodney Harrison is not one of those NFL Football players that provides an intimidating presence on that NFL Football field. He’s well-spoken, laughs easily and doesn’t take himself too easily. On the NFL Football field, it’s an entirely different thing.
Perhaps former teammate, Denver Broncos defensive tight end Stephen Alexander said it best when asked whom he hates the most going up against.
‘’Rodney Harrison,’’ he said. ‘’He always has his hands in your face and is running his mouth. He’ll hit you in the back when you’re not looking. He’s a good guy. I played with him. I like him. He’s just not fun to play against.’’
Oh yeah, New England Patriots starting QB, Tom Brady, wasn’t spared of the ‘’dirtiest player’’ label. Hell, Tom Brady was the ONLY quarterback in NFL Football to receive a vote in the ‘’dirtiest player’’ category.
‘’I don’t know who I ticked off,’’ Tom Brady said with a laugh. ‘’I can’t do anything dirty out there. I don’t get to touch anyone. I don’t know what they’re talking about. It must be a Jet or a Dolphin or something who hates me. I bet it was (Dolphins defensive end) Jason Taylor.’’
Tom Brady and Jason Taylor are good friends.

Rodney Harrison said, “Unlike last year, the best team will win the Superbowl this year.” Sounds like sour grapes to me Rodney. The Giants WERE the best team last year. Check the score you wiener!!!!
