I admire the hard work James Harrison put in to make himself one of the top linebackers in the NFL despite not being drafted out of Kent State. It takes more than a little drive to make it at the highest level of any sport, and even more to do so absent the benefit of a big contract or a pedigree. In that, I believe Harrison has got me beat. I can’t say that the fire in my belly burns quite that hot; his could melt steel.
In regard to his most recent crusade, however, I can’t quite get behind him.
