Adam Schefter tweeted that Harrison told Merrill Hoge that many of his comments were twisted by the writer and that he did not criticize Ben. Schefter also reported that Hoge spoke to Ben after Harrison called Roethlisberger and that Ben is "taking Harrison at his word and their relationship is fine."

Like I said in the Pittsburgh thread, I agree with what he said about Goodell and everything else, but not bashing his teammates. Does that mean I would say those things about my commissioner? Hell no. But James Harrison will do and say what he wants, I'm just glad the crazy bastard is playing for my squad.

I've just heard so many tales of athletes/celebs suddenly saying their Twitter account or whatever was "hacked" after something posted there caused controversy. And the way Harrison is, it's easy to see him venting like crazy and then realizing the next day that he shouldn't have said what he said.

Not that I'm expecting anything real to come out of this. It's not like he's the only guy on the team who's had to apologize or explain himself to the rest over the past couple years. Besides, a little hostility could always help the team out. Keep a fire lit under them.
