To you folks who post “There is a reason for everything” it’s possible you’re right – but it’s highly unlikely it’s because there is some entity controlling things for any human purpose.”

Even though we may not have never met or said hello.

It’s nice to see so many positive comments here.

The Lion’s turn around has been notable and fun to follow. This news is not at all fun, but hoping Mr. Harrison has the turn around he needs regarding his health.

Maybe it isn’t the “Get well” part that some people object to but the invocation of what many consider a mythical creature to make everything all better.

There are also people who actually think sports are the most important thing in the and actually do wish real physical harm on anyone who doesn’t play for their team.

Or maybe some people think some of the get well wishes go way over the top and they find that offputting.

But it could also be a for a dozen other reasons that would never occur to you and that you wouldn’t necessarily find objectionable when they were explained to you.

You just can’t know where the thumbs down is coming from.

I hope Jerome Harrison gets better soon. He is fortunate this trade came about leading to the discovery that he has a brain tumor.

I hope whoever released this to Schefter was authorized to do so by Jerome or his representatives. I’m so glad the physical caught the tumor and I hope and wish him the a full recovery. I just wondered if he had a choice to keep his health matters private until he released information himself or how Schefter knew…aren’t there HIPPA laws on this kind of thing? I just hope it was on Jerome’s terms. That said, all the best to him with his treatment and a full recovery.

God always works in mysterious ways! Prayers are with you!
==================================

Like putting a tumor in a young man’s brain?

If and when Harrison recovers it will be because of medical science.
Not wishes made to make believe friends that live in the sky.

I had one last December, it ruptured and gave me stroke like symptoms….. It was benign and after a few months I was fine, not all brain tumors are death sentences…..
Hopefully you get equally good news Jerome…

As an Eagles fan, I’m praying for Harrison’s recovery. Hopefully they caught it early and he can live a full and long life, and if he gets to continue his career, that’s even better.

I’d love to see Harrison kick the crap out of this tumour and return to the gridiron someday. That would be awesome. In the meantime godspeed young man. Give em hell.

Best of luck beating this thing, Jerome. I lost my Mom to cancer. Cancer sucks! Hopefully his is benign.
The thing is that god has nothing to do with it. Nor some mythic Jesus. Leave the superstition out of it if you want to be taken seriously.

Jerome is the man and I hope you get better.

And to all the people who thought the Eagles were simply doing this to avoid a “bad deal”(which it wasn’t), here you go.

Wow.

All the best to the guy and his family.

And if he weren’t taking NFL-quality physicals would he have ever found out?

A shame, b/c he had a few good games too.

Wishing Jerome the best – Your guardian angel was watching over you! Early detection is so key in fighting these battles. Your health trumps football – no doubt about it. Keeping Jerome in my thoughts and prayers.

Who are the lowlifes that thumbs down comments wishing Harrison to get well?

========================

They are pathetic trolls. Low lifes. Terrible (barely) human beings. I pick up these people out of my cat’s litter box.

Things happen for a reason. Without the trade, who knows how long this would’ve gone undetected. Get well soon Jerome. Hopefully they’ll find a cure for this terrible disease one day soon.

Here’s hoping all the faceless gutless idiots giving thumbs down to wishing Harrison a good outcome get the pleasure of dealing with karma, firsthand.

(look at all the little weasels scurrying to Wikipedia to find out what the hell karma is…)

Oh, and right about now some deep thinker is supposed to blame this tumor on Bill Belichick.

People who are down-thumbing the “get well” comments probably aren’t wishing Harrison anything bad for him, just it irks some people that such expressions are put on message boards Harrison will never see. It’s that they’re thumbing down – the poster not the sentiment.
