Headline should be “How Percy Harvin learned to cope with his anxiety” instead of keying in on the last 20 seconds of the video
For real. Glad he has a way to cope naturally and can do it without fear of suspension now.
Then you and i wouldn't have clicked
It is about that.....he used marijuana to cope...understand?
Then nobody would've watched it
How overcrowded is TH-cam? They want you to watch their video. That headline (which is accurate) gets you to click. Nothing wrong with it.
2yrs later
Percy: I was high when I did this interview
Wop Maaan he was in Seattle, smoking that Washington grown
hes also high while saying he was high doing that interview
I was high when I wrote this if that matters
Dank Videos same
I was high when I was playing pool against you...Wtf? 😁✌
Josh Gordon is really punching the air after watching this one 😂
Josh Gordon was addicted to Lean,oxy, and Xanax
Not really. He got help from an addiction and is now on a much better team that will most likely win a superbowl. The process may have been difficult because he was drug tested by the league and suspended. But in the end it paid off well
Lmfaoo
@@derekphillips4513 I like Josh Gordon but it's literally been months since he was last suspended. Still a long way to go
@@tacotom3492 But he has a job starting on the best team in the league with the best qb ever. And this is after recieving help and support. My point is just to say with his fortunate outcome he wouldn't be punching the air.
Who else is going to go back and watch the Seattle press conference and look at that team photo?
BoBiggHHB 3 ✋🏾 omw right now 😆
I just saw the photo. They do both look tense asf like everyone else smiling here and there but them two. Looked like two kids on timeout
im tryna find them
David Anaya II how you found it
i just seen you there
What a recieving core! Baldwin, Tate, Harvin! Damn. So easy to forget, that Seahawks team was unreal.
And Chris Carter called them pedestrian. Lol
@@kboanddbo indeed, it's a shame we have lost Baldwin & Harvin so early to long history of injuries/ailments. Tate is back this weekend, let's see what he can still do with A new look giants under Daniel Jones
Ricardo lockette??
i predict Tate will be back to Seahawks
@@Kicks80 let's see, New York is a bigger market than Seattle unfortunately, so it's about what he needs financially too for his family.
Who remembers when he was BEAST at Florida
NBFS TV I do, and he translated the same energy to the NFL dude was a Swiss Army knife on the field.
🐊 Tim Tebow, Aron hernandez
NBFS TV 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭even on my dam LSU 🐯 tigers 😭😭😭😭😭
Hell yeah!!
Killed my SEMINOLES 🤣🤣
I wish he would’ve stayed healthy, physically and mentally. He was a special talent that was kind of ahead of his time with the way offenses are ran in the NFL today.
I remember he and Chris Leak running the read/option at Florida. He was truly electric.
Ong
@@jgeorge2693 oluoklllllllllllllllllllllllllllkllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllokollopppllll
THIS. never knew I needed a comment till this. Crazy you say this cuz I think back to him at Florida too and this is the exact thing I think. Way ahead of his time. I want to say maybe if he didn’t smoke all that weed he’d last but as a smoker I can understand too. Glad no one has that negative energy towards him smoking
@@jgeorge2693 no one catching pervy
Now every NFL player bragging about playing high like Michael Irvin wasn’t on coke back in the day
Lmao word son
😂😂😂😂
Mac Turner “Giraffe Pussy” Thanks now I can’t get the thought of giraffes fucking out of my head.
Randy Moss
& Cris Carter was smoking CRACK
Definitely had anxiety, I would see him at house parties all the time while in college and he was always blazed and usually alone just chill and look at you crazy lol
You broke that down good
Best way to be tho
Keep ur circle small in 2019...people suck u into their bullshit these days..even ur friends
King king i was in Gainesville 06-12 too.. 404-386-9055 hit me
King king quit lying pussy boy
This guy had HOF talent. He was a potential TD every time he touched the ball.
James Tyler I guess you didn’t watch the video
@James Tyler are you saying marijuanna causes concussions? Or makes them worse? What are you really saying? Because Harvins main issue was injury related.
@James Tyler thats a really cool story man. but Harvins issues were from football.
James Tyler so is anxiety.his anxiety could have been so bad he would start missing actual games and not posting any stats!
@James Tyler just like science said cocaine was GREAT for migraines and all kinds of ailments in 1909. Sigmund frued wrote a rousing paper on it. Oh. Wait. Science is done by HUMANS. And we can be wrong. you need an agenda to get science done(either to pay for it, or to do the effort.) So. science. Is. Not. Objective. Think more critically dude else you gonna get taken advantage of... shit.
Played against him in HS at a 7on7 camp in VA. Hands down the most gifted WR/DB I witnessed with my own eyes. I was rooting for him when he turned pro. Unfortunately injuries hampered his promising career. Good to see him doing well now though.
It just seemed like every time he entered the game, he made a difference. Can’t say that about too many players.
Percy prob one of the most down to earth humblest guys out there and shows you his transparency. He did a signing for our shop when we opened and has been the best player we have worked with!! Takes rocks to be honest in today’s culture and we are thankful for Percy’s honesty!
he was a fucking asshole on campus at UF fuck this dude
squarecracker a lot of people may be like that in college, he’s definitely grown. I can’t comment on his college behavior, I know him now he has a heart of gold for kids in need. Maybe just misunderstood? People with social anxieties all react differently. Check out our Instagram @shopmeelypops and see the pics of him with kids and families, people change bro
@@shopmeelypops nawww social anxiety be stupid and fake af n want to get high. I used the same excuses when I was 14 n wanted to get high lmao
@@richardharper4637 I agree there are a lot of people that may use that excuse and just want to use recreational drugs - nobody wants to talk about nicotine, alcohol, caffeine though, these are also drugs. I would say this - psychological distress can be subjective sometimes, but I would disagree with you to say that Anxiety is not a real diagnosis. I think the whole medical community would agree. Not for me to judge though. Appreciate u bro
Richard Harper “I faked having social anxiety so that means it doesn’t exist” 😂 ignorant ass
My man Percival harvin the best gator and the most Dynamic exciting versatile player I ever seen
Percy was that dude 🔥
One of Florida’s Best Players I’ve seen..
Young Nike top 20 college football player of all time
Young Nike boy was a dog
Wilbur Marshall my vote for best Florida player.
He made Tebow look better than he was
yessir
Gators trio of straight speed Jeff Demps, Percy Harvin, and Chris Rainey. One of the fastest teams ever in CFB.
Łpb šuavvo Facts.
Track team. And it showed. Ask OU
Nothing but a track team in cleats smh (the roadrunners kids)
Łpb šuavvo Demps was fast
I miss my gators from 06- 2010
I'm the Percy Harvin of eating Doritos and watching bad films.
Marquis de Suave it’s an honor just to comment on your comment.
So you’ll get 2 minutes into a bad film and then miss 4-6 weeks due to migraines
😄
I always rocked with Percy. For some reason, I feel like no one likes Golden Tate haha.
Because he fucked Wilson's wife at the time.
Fucked her right up the butt too
Ryan Henderson actually v
Ryan Henderson actually?
Never liked that fool
80% of the players in the NFL smoke everyday damn near‼️
Just gota get that clean piss
Fellas there Union they test in mini camp if ur clean on that one test they can't f with u...the rest of the year.
Yup
@ron I thought they got random test throughout the year
Big facts
Damn bro I'm a Seahawks fan and I miss Percy bro he was a monster on that field
FROM VANCOUVER B.C. HAVE FAMILY IN SEATTLE.. LIVED IN SEATTLE..FOR A BIT...STILL OWN PROPERTY IN BELLINGHAM... HUGE HAWKS FAN ....!!!! GO HAWKS !!!! 🤘✌🇨🇦🇬🇧🇺🇸✌👍
Miss Beast Mode and Sherman more lol
Phee Shankar I too have property in. Bham. Let’s link
He was so good when he was playing for the Vikings. Fastest man on the field!
You guys have some crazy history with players at their peaks.
Randy Moss, Chris Carter, Adrian Peterson... List goes on, jealous!
@@reciv4 viks was the shit
@@reciv4 0-4 and no Super Bowl appearance in 40+ years😮💨
Cordarelle Patterson too
Man I miss this man he was so much fun to watch. He helped give me an early love to the game of football. I can remember one time we went to a packers Vikings game and I wanted to get there early so bad so I didn’t miss the kickoff and maybe see Percy take one to the house. I even still have his 12 Vikings jersey. Thank you Percy
The drawing looks more like Percy Harvin than Percy Harvin looks like Percy Harvin
Jay Vines ong
@3:27 😂 Ya'll petty for giving cartoon Golden Tate that black eye
Let’s just say we we we we we we we locked up😂😂
Well that makes a lot of sense
Why?
@@Sandiegochargers85 well because since he's came into the league, it's always felt like he never maximized his potential. And maybe token before every game might have played a factor, he was a receiver with all the tools. But his route running and ability to memorize the playbook was a big issue for him. There's people who can maintain on weed but there's a lot of burnouts too and he definitely is a burnout
@@hilriekemp you don't know his fkaws were because of weed. If he smoked to help with his health issues, mental and physical, then he did it for his benefit. It actually could have helped him out in those areas your saying he was messing up in he could have been worse without the 🌲, you don't know whether it was detrimental or actually quite helpful to him with his issues. Of course I dont either, and I'm just playing devil's advocate in terms of the other side of your argument, but yow were talking as if you were sure of it, calling him a burnout and that the 🌲 messed him up with some of his route running n remembering plays, et cetera. In the video ge actually said it helped him , so as long as he himself says/said it helped him then that's all that matters and he had bad issues with migraines as well as all the other problems that come with being a football player in terms of pain and stiffness and all the rest, he even said that he was prescribed seven different drugs from the doctor but that really the weed helped equally or even more than taking all of those drugs. Dontbe so quick to make judgements with things you don't know just cause your anti weed. And no hate either, it's all love just had to get my point across as I didn't agree with some of the things you said. Have a good day and rest of the week, man
@@LimoneneDaddy production is life I dont care about the personal as a black man you dont have the luxury of such excuses you're not going to get any pity. We all have shit going on but for an athlete we can actually see said production, numbers don't lie and his career was underwhelming. I mean no one asked him to talk about this he's a dumb dumb for even bringing it up. I know that you are a sensitive white man but put your feelings in your pocket nobody gives a damn about how he feels he's getting paid to do a job, handsomely I might add and if his employer says weed is a no go dont fucking smoke. That's the real world we all have rules to follow, and if you can't stop smoking for at least 6 months a year and focus on your job you're an idiot. You can smoke in the off season
@@hilriekemp you know what I was keeping it civil and I'll continue to, but that's a low blow for bringing race and the fact that im white into it, wtf does that have to do with us talking about a football player? Shows me where your mind is really at. As I said before, have a good day and rest of the week.
It's people like YOU that perpetuate racism instead of bring us together and who would have thought - it's a black dude , not a white guy as one would "expect" it to be. And it seems like YOUR the sensitive one, lol so YOU put your feelings in ya back pocket as you so eloquently put it in your thoughtful (aggressive) comment. 👍👌👍👌
One of my favorite players out the SEC
This dude was so fast I wonder if he did cocaine too lol, homie used to trip over his own legs
Absolutely killed us Cardinals
Lonnie Smith did the same thing and he was coked up for a good chunk of his career
Fuck u
shaolin1200 superior genetics and work ethic
shaolin1200 his user name plus what you said had me hella confused 😂
He must’ve been in a different universe during the super bowl low key should’ve won MVP
He scored when the score was 22-0 the game was over already.
@@jgeorge2693 *cough * Atlanta and New Jersey
@@jgeorge2693 it was a pint return and halftime kick off return I think
Low key your smoked
I think people nowadays don't really understand what the term "low-key" means or when it should be used.
I noticed in life the winner always takes responsibility after the fight....
757 home of percy, micheal vick, and Iverson...something in the water
@ im sharp just named the most famous ones so ppl know
@@TopTee3 lol, pretty sure Zo is one of the "most famous" ones....but it's all good.
@@MB-fv9jh I know it is . foh
@@MB-fv9jh shoulda said Zo, AI , and Vick ? I wasn't makin a list just a comment
@@TopTee3 lol, damn, nigga, you mad? They make em' so sensitive now...you CAN'T be from 757 like this.
I knew he was high. I called that out along time ago. Thanks for the validation. I'm glad you found what your body needs. It really helped me as well.
I feel like all dudes coming out now like " yeah I took one piece rip before I played kick off I was ALWAYS faded" lol
This dude kept me from getting a va high school state championship ring.... in basketball 🤦🏽♂️ blocking everyone’s shot
757 va beach legend
Shance Eaton yessir 💪🏽
he's high right now!
Is that a problem ??? Are you judging people who smoke weed ???
WHO THE FUCK YOU TALKIN 2 bru no one give a fuck
Percy was that dude in HS and I’m from Nova. He destroyed the best team in our area and played damn near every position including catching the game wining pick 6 😆🤣
One of my favorite NFL players! Plus Stefon diggs channels his game after Percy!
Diggs!!
For real, the injury proness is real...
I'd get high too if I had to play for the Vikings
Will Bryan 😂
💀💀👌🏼
He said it was worse switching
But he had to deal with ponder, Tavaris Jackson, etc
At the time the vikings were really good though. They got to a nfc chamionship game but lost to the saints and the saints went on the win the bowl. I remember that game was rigged though, they didnt call roughing the passer a few times. Bret favre left the game beat up.
He’s a good man for admitting his social anxiety issues & that he was wrong w/Tate.
Lmao @ percy's 'make you flinch' move
You already know he grew up throwing hands lol
Reminds me of Dock Ellis, a baseball player who threw a no-hitter while on LSD.
It's not similar at all lol. Percy was using a downer to help calm anxiety and Ellis was fucking hallucinating and throwing at pink elephants and shit lol.
Sarah Jane I know this is probably just a joke, but I want to make 100% sure everyone knows that people do not “see hallucinations” unless they take a ridiculously high amount of acid and if that was the case he wouldn’t be able to walk
@@sjc4 I never said it was similar, just that I was reminded of Dock's no hitter
His NFL career started out pretty decent his first couple year in Minnesota and his super bowl run in Seattle. I know he was suffering from migraine headaches as well. Man.. just makes you wonder what kind of career he would of had if he didn't have the migraines, the anxiety and would've stayed healthy on and off the field!
PH was one of the most exciting players I ever watched in my 50+ year life of being a football fanatic.
Must've been smoking that Reggie, that's why he always had headaches
😂😂😂😂those were concussions
Percy harvin, Adrian Peterson, Bernard berrian, Brett favre...... those were the days😭😭😭
Man, anxiety sucks i suffer from it to. Definitely makes life and relationships more difficult.
Meds dont work or have too many bad side effects, haven't tried smoking, don't like it and can't because of my job anyways.
But im glad he spoke up about it. Its a real issue.
Yea you gotta be careful with smoking amd anxiety. It actually can make it alot worse. If you want to try it for anxiety just use CBD. It works better without the extra high. Weed makes my anxiety 10x worse lol
@@brotherLee340 whats cbd?
Thank for share this story!!! We are not alone Percy✊🏾
Beast Mode being the peace maker shows you all you need to know about him. Oakland’s Finest!
Imagine being in the super bowl and and letting a man that’s high take a kick return to the house
Being high is a positive top athletes, lots of good athletes played high, it’s suppose to help you and give you a + in yo game
I knew I liked Harvin for a reason even though I'm not a Florida fan.
Very good interview. Master does a great job of making The players feel comfortable to open up & be real. 💯🤝
God is good for bringing the team together to win a unbelievable Super Bowl after such a wild altercation 😂
Isn’t it obvious a bunch of pros are smoking weed? Come on the dudes in the NBA be looking high as hell.
Josh Gordon is the goat at that, he gives no fucks
reciv4 he obviously does more than weed
Joe Bob was just gonna say that 😂😂😂
Joe Bob well crack is natural too so
NBA requires wayy more actual individual talent to be a star that means if you are a superstar when you are sober you are just as talented when you are high too.
Percy Harvin is a great guy, I met him at a Vikings charity event 7ish years ago when I was in middle school (my mom got hooked up with tix thru her work), anyway Percy was just standing around talking to people. He was super fucking chill and I got a picture with him.
“dougy, golden, that one was on me” i can respect the work that man put into his mind
Aye they beat the crap outta my broncos that game... I respect that he realized that the pills didn't work...that green works very well
Thor God of thunder not me weed gives me anxiety so I take xanax but I live in ohio I wish I lived in cali so I could find the right strain
VA’s Finest !!!
Yo, I’d say one of their best videos to date. Vibe was cool, animations were cool, dude doin it was cool. Didn’t really seemed forced or anything, just felt cool. Good video
I’m high right now watching this, enjoying it
Injuries ruined his career, he was on Pace to being an all-time great
I can’t wait until my retirement, so I can tell my superiors I was high everyday 💦😂💦🤷🏾♂️
Good to see that Percy Harvin is getting some help and understanding, never will forget his kickoff return touchdown in the Super Bowl!
Man percy was cut before his time. He was a beast.
Percy seems like a good dude
Josh Gordon enters chat*
“NAAANNNNNIIIIII?!?!?!??”
I have heard about Percy Harvin being high at every game which I probably heard about that from videos of people responding to this but I wasn't aware of this other stuff. This was a very good watch and listen
Used to watch him at his high school at landstown in va beach. Then got to see him play in the nfl. 757 baby
Damn I always thought Percy knocked Tate because he was smackin Russell’s wife at the time ha
So that’s why he upgraded to Ciara?
@@keithb1687 Russell divorced his gold-digging wife and got a real woman
That still did happen. Source, having 3 friends who played on the team.
@@jgeorge2693 nah ciera wanted 50 cent he didnt want her she wanted Bow he didnt want her she wanted future he didnt want her. So she stop messing the thugs and went to carlton
Alibaba Saluja Future? anyone who makes trap music isn’t a thug😂 thugs make real rap
One of my favorite Minnesota Vikings ever all time
This dude sealed the deal on that superbowl. They were up pretty big, but running a kick return back to start the 2nd half just ended it...
i always thawt he was a BEAST! but when he fought one of the coaches @fla he lost my respect. but then as time passed and he experienced more adversity i kinda realized he had certain issues. but now it's a great blessing that he's dealt with his stuff and is evolving & maturing. peace to percy.☝🏾
The weed took Percy’s hairline, the animation gave it back.
they finna start drug testing tf outta players
Lol what you doing here Rocket
Nah they can't. Player's union negotiate that stuff. Players get tested a couple times a year and if they do not pass then they are dumb.
I already knew this if you an og Vikings/Harvin fan. I miss this man's play fr. It's rare to see what talent he brought to the field on Sundays
you can do anything high that you can not being high.
Harvin tore us up when he was in Minn.
So the 100 games he missed he must've just been outa weed
Nope. He smoked everday & listened too Nate Dogg
Percy Harvin is just JR playing football 😂
Sans Mans faxx😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dude needed it. He was hurt his whole career. He had migraines, hip surgery, and anxiety, but has a ring.
Thank you Percy, for going through all that and helping us getting a super bowl
So that's why when i see you in books your eyes are red
Dang seem like everyone was
Stedio City everyone still is
Mercy Percy for the REAL fans!!!
Bout to go watch his highlights....definitely gonna hit different 😅
I just realized that dudes that smoke allday have a certain build and Percy he looking like a 420 vet
😭😭💀
*Josh Gordon wants to know your location*
CoolBreezy#9 fr 😂
I figured he was on something man his eyes always use to look glassy. But I know he was dealing with migraines as well, man I mean I don’t and didn’t smoke weed, but I saw a lot of my teammates back at juco smoke and it did relax and relieve a lot stress because we were definitely under a lot in that atmosphere. So I can understand why people do it just don’t abuse it like anything else just be at a balance. Peace and more peace to you Percy and everyone else that deals with some of those issues.
Smoking watching this before headed to work the irony lol
my favorite player of all time go gators
Nobody knows this but
He played this poolgame high😂
If it wasn’t for injuries, this dude would have been an all time great. Hands down. He was Debo Samuel before Debo Samuel.
Great interview... Keep Striving Percy!
percy harvin won a super bowl high and he went home and smoked a super bowl
😂
His stats certainly weren't high every game; I can tell ya that much.
Meh..... dude was nice
@Teddy B he was telling a joke
Teddy B faxx percy good for life!! Trust me he aint commenting on youtube hating on people he smoking that gas and getting topped by baddies
Appreciate you Percy for sharing
Peace Percy
Roll on
Percy: I was high every game, every place I visit or had to go, I was high then..high now...wait what were we talking about again..lol
Well u get a drug test once a year, who else doesn't! Lol
Man this is a great video it takes a lot of courage to talk about this
I know that feeling, I already have a speech impairment and when I get nervous I cannot get my words out.
man tho props to dude, he had a career in the nfl and its nervous enough playing on the national level than it already is
