This is true
that clambake guy is funny
This is true
Oh my GOD, i just heard the tail end of this story on ESPN earlier tonight but reading this now with all the details he is dead in the water. It was a special type of gun, they caught him in a lie, finding the gun with bullets missing and they match those at the scene of the crime. Yeah he is going to prison alright, what a shocker. There goes Manning's all time great receiver, i wonder if this will effect his HOF status at all?? Probably not but his playing days are likely over.
God damn am I glad Reggie Wayne turned into Superman and the Colts drafted Gonzalez last year.
lets not rush to judgement guys....not until we know the whole story.
did anyone hear about Herschel's book? who knew he was a schizo and had psychotic episodes that caused him to almost kill his wife and himself on numerous occasions.
Wait until all the facts come out but Damn looks pretty bad for him. I never would have though he owned a Bar and 25 guns.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Indianapolis Colts star receiver Marvin Harrison was interviewed by police about a shooting near his North Philadelphia car wash this week.
Lt. Frank Vanore said the investigation of Tuesday's shooting was continuing. Harrison has not been arrested or charged.
"He was interviewed," Vanore said Friday. "Why he was interviewed, that is all part of the investigation. No one is a suspect."
Vanore told WCAU-TV the shooting occurred near 25th and Thompson streets, near a car wash owned by Harrison and about a half-mile from a bar also owned by the All-Pro receiver.
Earlier, radio station WIP, citing unidentified sources, reported the alleged shooting victim argued with Harrison at Playmakers bar. The victim left and headed to his car, Harrison followed and gunfire broke out, the station reported. The alleged victim was shot in the hand and did not identify the shooter, according to the radio station.
Varone also said a child was hit in the eyes by broken glass, but was treated and released from a hospital.
Harrison, a prep football star at Philadelphia's Roman Catholic High, has owned Playmakers since July 2004, according to state records.
Harrison's agent, Tom Condon, denied the player was involved in the shooting.
"I've spoken with Marvin and I've spoken with his attorney, and they say the reports are erroneous," Condon told ESPN. "Marvin was not involved in any shooting, and he is not the subject of this investigation."
It was business as usual Friday night at the bar, located in the middle of the block in a neighborhood of rowhouses. Through two large picture windows, a handful of patrons could be seen sitting at the bar, and others were playing pool amid framed pro football jerseys on the walls.
A man working the door at Playmakers refused to comment on the media reports involving Harrison and would not allow a reporter to enter.
After the first day of their rookie minicamp, Colts coach Tony Dungy said he knew little more than had been reported.
"My phone has been ringing, too, but I don't have any details," Dungy said. "I really don't have any more information than you do."
Colts team president Bill Polian said in a statement the team would withhold comment until it got more information.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said the league is aware of the report and is looking into it.
A source told WIP that ballistic tests showed the shots were fired from a custom-made Belgian weapon, and police determined Harrison owns that kind of gun.
Police went to a Philadelphia car wash about a half-mile away that is owned by Harrison and questioned him about the gun, the station said. Harrison acknowledged owning such a weapon, but told officials it never left his suburban Philadelphia home, the radio station reported.
The source told the station a gun was discovered in a bucket at the car wash, and tests showed it had fired bullets that matched those at the scene.
Harrison has played his entire 12-season career with the Colts and is the franchise's record-holder in every major receiving category -- receptions (1,042), yards (13,944), touchdowns (123) and 100-yard games (59). The 35-year-old is one of only four players in league history to top 1,000 receptions.
But after eight consecutive Pro Bowl appearances, last season was the most frustrating of Harrison's career.
He injured his left knee against Denver on Sept. 30, finished with 20 receptions for 247 yards and one TD and missed all but five games.
Team president Bill Polian said in February that Harrison was recovering from offseason arthroscopic surgery on his right knee and had been rehabilitating the inflamed capsule in his left knee. He was not expected to be completely healthy for the start of the Colts training camp July 24.
The typically quiet Harrison has a reputation for being humble on and off the field.
But he's still one of the Colts' most visible players -- and their longest tenured veteran. Harrison, along with Peyton Manning and Edgerrin James, were nicknamed Indy's triplets in the late 1990s. He was a first-round draft pick in 1996 out of Syracuse and wound up the best receiver in a class that included Keyshawn Johnson and Eric Moulds.
Off the field, Harrison was sued following the 2005 Pro Bowl when three boys accused him of attacking them when they tried to get his autograph. The suit alleged Harrison "violently and physically attacked" the minors, including placing a "potentially deadly choke hold" on one of the boys, but it was later dismissed.
ohh the irony...
He's working on a way to blame the Patriots for this.Colts team president Bill Polian said in a statement the team would withhold comment until it got more information.
i don't know how they can say he's not a suspect.
special gun that he admits to owning, the bullet casings match the guns ballistics. he says it's been at home, yet, they find it at the car wash he owns, in a bucket, while he's there.
he walked out after the guy when he left.. and the shots were fired THEN.
i guess it only counts if a dog were involved.
the police are putting Harrison through a series of combine like tests. If he does well and can contribute to the team this year they may sweep this under the rug, if he does poorly he goes to jail.
Because one of Marv's home boys couldn't have snatched the gun and started poppin' off s s?
Or if he did, and he shot back rather than shot first, self defense baby.
Either way Marv's pimp rating has just gone up like 300%.
"Mr. Harrison,
Mr. Goodell will see you now."
he is basically Ray Curruth with one of these w/o the glasses
I just got to work and heard another part of the story. I haven't seen this info anywhere else, so I thought I'd share...
Apparently, this guy (victim) had been showing up at the bar for a while now constantly harrassing Harrison, and it finally reached a boiling point the day of the shooting.
He (victim) showed up at the bar and started in again. A physical fight between Harrison and victim broke out, and the victim soon left.
He then came back a while later, and that's when the shot(s?) were fired.
Has anyone else heard this?
Certainly, I'm not condoning this or making excuses, but I could see how it could escalate to this point.
I guess we'll have to wait and see how this ends.
If you are so much of a pussy that you have to resort to using a gun to settle a dispute, you deserve to go to jail.
If it was Harrison, lock his ass up. If it was one of Harrison's boys then leave Marvin alone. It sounds like Marvin is cooperating though so that is good. I have always been a fan of his so I hope he didn't pull the trigger.
Marvin, come play in New York we have a pretty low crime rate. You won't even need your guns here.
His lawyer is probably all over this and the police department has probably been advised by the mayer/DA to be extremely cautious what they say to the public.
Crazy .
Hey, something happens that finally makes Randy Moss look like less of a thug. When you are fat, just hang around people fatter than you are.
Randy Moss has still been arrested more times and has spent more time in jail, but that don't matta.
But Randy Moss once helped a kid.
Marvin Harrison is a complete dumbass, though. What a way to completely piss away his reputation and his career in one fell swoop.
He is just stupid why does he even own a Bar in that hood in Philly? Then he buys a chop shop in the same ghetto what a dumb .
