Hating and Harbaugh



God damn it.

This is what drives me nuts. Meechy won't go out there and get me a coach that I can hate with all my soul. Like Dabo Swinney. Or Brian Kelley. Instead they get guys like Rich Rodriguez who was so pathetic that hating him was like talking shit about a dead person. Or Brady Hoke who was so invisible and apparently apathetic that hating him was like hating somebody at the DMV. Just doing their job (badly) and picking up the check.

But now Jim Harbaugh. An infinitely better coach. (With a defensive coach that is better at coaching than he is.) An endlessly entertaining presence who can turn a post-game presser into must read news in a million different ways. A man who lists Bear Bryant, Bo Schembechler and WOODY HAYES as his favorite coaches of all time. And now this. Delivering a calf. Yes, he has a lucrative deal with Fairlife Milk dairy products. But still. How do you fully and unreservedly hate a guy who delivers a calf?

Hating Meechy? Easy. Hating Harbaugh? Much bigger challenge.

  1. Harbaugh's existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, wins games. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at BRFL parties, you want Harbaugh on that sideline, you need Harbaugh on that sideline. We use names like Brady, Woodson, Biakabutuka. We use these names as the backbone of a life spent watching Michigan. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who supports Urban Meyer and his alternative facts, and then questions the manner in which Harbaugh coaches. I would rather you just said Go Blue, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you strap on a helmet, and run a post route. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

  2. Huh? Did you read the post? I was under the impression Michigan Men could read. My bad. Overestimating the mitten state again. Incidentally, re Tshimanga Biakabutuka, the Killer from Kinshasa, it's hard to use a guy who runs over your defence for 313 yards as a punch line.

    1. The humor biopsy is negative, doctor.

    2. There is help available for people like you. But you have to want to get better first. I'm not convinced you do.

  3. BTW, the more I think about the U of M the more I think of it as a sort of disease. With various manifestations, none of them good, but all of them having to do with an ego-dysmorphic aspiration to dominate all other humans, particularly those in the B1G. The perpetual failure to accomplish this seemingly very achievable goal tends, over time, to hopelessly warp the character of the Michigander. And, in turn, reinforces their odd snootiness and hauteur. Thus the argument, advanced by many in the B1G, for bombing Ann Arbor into rubble at the earliest opportunity.

  4. Pretty big words for a Buckeye whose fan base has the most pizza delivery guys per capita. Go back to pooping in coolers, Bucknut.
