| Post subject: | Best Wide Receiver of the 2000s |
Saw this top 10 countdown on the NFL Network. They had Harrison at number 1 over Owens and Moss which I think is lunacy. It reeks of overrating of a supposedly nice guy over the assholes, but that only makes sense if you think Owens and Moss' celebrations and media personalities were a greater affront than Harrison killing someone in broad daylight. I can only figure it was the same reasoning that got Harrison inducted into the Hall of Fame before Owens. Hines Ward was fifth, which was also pretty questionable in my opinion. |

As long as we forget Oakland, I would take Moss at #1. |

Give me TO over Moss any day. Agreed on Harrison. 5th sounds close to right for Ward. |

It's not Harrison's fault that he got to play with Manning in his prime for his whole career. That being said, I still cant put him over TO or Moss. |

How is Harrison a good guy? Didn't use an old-timey gun to rob someone or something? |

Shot someone he got into a fistfight with outside of Harrison's car wash, then sometime after that the same guy was straight up murdered outside of a bar Harrison owns... http://www.gq.com/story/marvin-harrison ... But ya' know, he ran routes real good, and stood for every national anthem. |

Moss, but if you are taking out the surrounding personnel, it is much closer between Moss and Owens. |

There are so many it's hard to narrow down. Can't even imagine if Moss had played in that Martz system. He would have made Torrie Holt look like Rickey Watts. |
