Harrison, from the Steelers, has been a sore-subject with me for quite a while now.

After getting hammered numerous times by the NFL for his illegal hits, he said he couldn't change the way he plays.

Now, he says to avoid getting fined, he will be going low (i.e., the knees).

What is the matter with this guy? Pop Warner football teaches kids how to tackle, and that is right smack-dab in the chest area (when possible).

I truly think he should just retire from the game and get a job a McDonalds.

Wow! That's a difference in how they taught us to tackle when I was in elementary school football in Oklahoma between 1957-1959. They always told us to tackle around the legs because if you tackle high, you might get faked or shaken off but if you've got his legs, that's what he uses to move. Nothing about the knees though. That was long before trying to injure people came into being.

Knees? Same here Chyren. Taught to watch hips and tackle hard there.

Right Colonel! Long before karate kid, our coaches used to tell us, basically, "Eyes lie, shoulders can change but where his legs are, he has to be."

Perhaps it may be that Harrison realizes the dirty player label which he is recognized for doesn't have it anymore. Now that label is fully owned by Detroit Lions Dominican Zoo. Sorry fellows I don't know how to write his name. So I put it here the way it sounds to me when pronounced.
