Comments on: Migraines no longer a concern for Percy Harvin

I would strongly suspect his migraines will return as soon as OTAs, training camp, or any other practice session comes up. Historically it has been a clear cut cause & effect – practice = migraine. Also, I would be extremely concerned about his glaucoma – he must have a very serious case as much as he medicates for it.

Percy is an absolute great player and game breaker, but unless he changes dramatically the 3 hours of Sunday upside do not weigh the downside every other hour of the week.

Maybe he actually really had migraines? Remember that time in training camp or whatnot when he collapsed? Yeah, he faked that to be convenient. Makes sense. He didn’t like Ponder and wanted out. How hard is that to understand?

Tired of the stupid and uneducated comments. Some people just can’t stand the fact that the Seahawks are building a winning team.”

@seahawksteven777, get over yourself and take that irrational chip off your shoulder. No one is bashing the searats. People are wondering about Percy and his convenient migraines.

Tired of the stupid and uneducated comments. Some people just can’t stand the fact that the Seahawks are building a winning team.

He’s missed only 3 games prior to last year. Last year, he missed 7 games but I bet he probably could have played in some of them because of the self imposed IR by the team.

His migraines are indeed not an issue. If they were, don’t you think he’d miss more time? If they were, Seattle probably doesn’t do the trade because they definitely did their due diligence before making the trade.

As for those saying he’ll be a problem, I honestly don’t think so. A change of scenery does wonders. Just ask Marshawn Lynch. People love to knock moves before even giving them a chance.

Re: Percy Harvin had been plagued by “migraines” that affected his ability to perform in practice and even games.

You spelled “Christain Ponder” wrong.

Forget headaches. With Wilson now able to dump it off to a guy like Harvin at the end of his scrambles, defensive coordinators may wind up having aneurysms.

Hey, sometimes it just doesn’t work out with an employee and an employer. I wish Percy no ill will. Like one guy said yesterday; maybe this is the rare occasion where both teams got a good deal.

I suffer from migraines. They don’t just magically disappear. I think he migraine was playing in the bubble dome.

Coincidentally, the migraines disappeared around the same time Childress did. I would imagine they might come back if Pete tries to hold Percy more accountable.

I watched the interview. Percy wasn’t stoned. He’s just not very smart. When he was a rookie, you couldn’t understand anything he said. He sounded like the Cajun Man on SNL.

Turn out the main cause for Percy and most Vikings fans headaches was Brad Childress.

As a Vikings fan, i don’t care where he plays. But for long term, i hop that the migraines are gone for good for percy. We sure enjoy the entertainment that these athletes provide, but let’s look long term. They aren’t fun to deal with.

But on the other side of the rainbow… Atleast he is in Washington state now. He can always retire from football, and toke as much reefer as needed. And do it legally.

If you ever do get migraines again, be careful not to use Sherman’s tablets

Speaking of Harvin and weed…

Guy looked stoned as hell.

Good on ya Percy.

Of course he no longer has migraines, Christian Ponder is no longer his QB after all.

Migraines no longer a concern for Leslie Frazier. Unless they replace Harvin by signing Randy Moss.

Percy has got a funny way of showing his gratitude for all the medical care and patience the Vikings provided. Don’t let the doorvhitvyou in the ass, Diva.

As a die hard Vikings fan, it’s a bit infuriating to see Percy with the Seahawks logos behind him. Still trying to figure out if I should be more upset at Percy or the organization.

I believe the medical term for Percy Harvin’s condition is “Practicitis”.

Good riddance. The Vikes organization bent over backwards to help this dude out, only to have “Percyland” resurface. He’s a monster talent but I’ve been waiting for the other shoe to fall with this guy for years now. How much of a D-Bag can a guy be by arguing with one of the most level-headed coaches in the league?…..That being said,….Holy Crap do you need receivers! Ugh!
