Pete Finebaum - “Michigan is a legit title contender”
Never thought I’d see the day. Hype train commence!
October 14th, 2018 at 2:34 PM ^
Nah, Pete, you can't come around with that now. Keep your nose out of our asses, thank you very much.
October 14th, 2018 at 4:09 PM ^
Not that it overly matters, but the guy's name is Paul. Whatever name you want to call him, he's still a dunce . . .
October 14th, 2018 at 4:19 PM ^
Whoosh
October 14th, 2018 at 5:06 PM ^
Okay, dunce, I'll be nice to you. Last year, Harbaugh called him Pete - said he didn't know who he is. Try to keep up, or at least learn the joke, before you make yourself look like a complete fool.
Because Jim MF Harbaugh called him Pete, his name is Pete. Stop being obtuse.
October 14th, 2018 at 6:08 PM ^
...and because he really hated being called Pete. Therefore, he is forever Pete.
October 14th, 2018 at 6:56 PM ^
That's right. So now his name is PETE. Game over.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:34 PM ^
He looks like a penis with ears and I don’t care what that jabbroni thinks
October 14th, 2018 at 2:36 PM ^
Not a qualified judge of penises but that's an ugly penis
October 14th, 2018 at 2:49 PM ^
October 14th, 2018 at 2:35 PM ^
Well thats nice, but he is still a talking penis"
You don't say.
October 15th, 2018 at 10:17 AM ^
He didn't say what kind of penis. There are lots of other mammals out there.

October 14th, 2018 at 2:35 PM ^
funny how in this clip he seems to allude to how certain people had written Harbaugh off....
October 14th, 2018 at 2:47 PM ^
Exactly, he was writing the fucking book. He's not man enough to say he was the main one.
October 14th, 2018 at 3:02 PM ^
F*** that! JUST last week HE was the one saying the Harbaugh was one of the most under performing coaches.... and now? Won't hit that link!
Finebaum lists Harbaugh among biggest coaching disappointments

Let's see how we do next week on the road before he starts talking us up.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:48 PM ^
and then covers his face with his notes. no alluding. goes out of his way to mock penn state too. Still a wanker though.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:35 PM ^
Just saw this myself. I legitimately laughed out loud. When people make fun of the likes of Stephen A & Skip, they need to remember the current king of complete gas bags.
October 14th, 2018 at 4:05 PM ^
James Yoder is pushing pretty hard for that crown though . . .
October 14th, 2018 at 2:35 PM ^
No shit
October 14th, 2018 at 2:39 PM ^
Well he is firmly attached to the teat of the SEC and by a SEC I mean Alabama
October 14th, 2018 at 2:36 PM ^
This is the kiss of death.
October 14th, 2018 at 3:59 PM ^
Not really, he said he still thinks we don't make it because we won't get past Ohio State... So, we're still in it!
October 14th, 2018 at 2:36 PM ^
A little bit of good news about Zach Harrison came out too. Wltfong latest tweet says Michigan is gaining momentum. The news from a few weeks ago that his mom said he can go anywhere, and not just Ohio St, was big for Michigan.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:50 PM ^
Not to rip on you, but this really isn't anything new. Sam has been saying all along that Michigan has a chance. I think it would speak volumes if he comes back for the Penn St. game. He had to enjoy himself last night.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:54 PM ^
I think we all knew there was a chance without Sam telling us. I was referring to Wiltfong.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:54 PM ^
Yes and no, last night he was here on his own dime. PSU would be the official..which we were already going to get.
October 14th, 2018 at 3:34 PM ^
But there was talk he was done with visits to Michigan. There was some commenter (supposedly a Michigan fan) on here trolling people who said he was coming back more.
Those guys never show up to say they were wrong, and to apologize for their incessant trolling. Nor do the people that supported their trolling.
October 15th, 2018 at 10:30 AM ^
Harrison took his official to Michigan in June. That's why people are saying he wasn't taking anymore visits. He planned to commit to Ohio St months ago but Michigan blew up that plan in June.
October 14th, 2018 at 4:00 PM ^
Wiltfong changed his CB pick from OSU to foggy.
It said something that Harrison visited last night. His plan was to see the round-robin of games between Michigan, OSU and PSU. Did that mean he either wants to see Michigan more or PSU less? Or maybe he's getting anxious to make his decision.
October 14th, 2018 at 4:08 PM ^
It could say those things but it might just be that he was free Saturday and it sounded fun.
October 14th, 2018 at 4:09 PM ^
I think that too, that is meant something he was at last night's game.
It would be quite a sight to see Kwity Paye at DT, and Zach Harrison at DE next to him, on some plays.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:41 PM ^
“Pete Finnebaum is a legit human penis impersonator.”
October 14th, 2018 at 2:42 PM ^
He can go fuck himself
October 15th, 2018 at 12:22 AM ^
If he keeps up his yoga he's uniquely suited to perform the feat.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:43 PM ^
This is not the week for this. Wait for the bye week. Please, national media.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:44 PM ^
Doesn’t mean much until UM shows it can win a road game vs a good team. Next opportunity is Saturday to change the narrative.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:52 PM ^
I understand what you are saying but the goalpost is going to change if we win. It will be that we cannot beat OSU on the road or whatever.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:54 PM ^
That is true regardless. Michigan has much to prove.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:55 PM ^
Also: "MSU wasn't that good anyway."
October 14th, 2018 at 2:55 PM ^
Those goalposts will keep moving all the way back to a natty. We have a good team, let's enjoy it now. Fuck waiting for outsiders approval.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:59 PM ^
If Michigan wins the national championship it will be "well, you haven't proven you can go back-to-back."
October 14th, 2018 at 3:07 PM ^
So a road win against MSU counts as a “good win” but a road win against the team that just beat MSU isn’t a “good win”.
Is it hard to be so obtuse?
October 14th, 2018 at 3:26 PM ^
There is a cult of obtuse around the world these days. We are drowning in a sea of obtuse.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:23 PM ^
MSU is bad. Our next opportunity to beat a good team on the road is osu.
October 14th, 2018 at 2:52 PM ^
Don't jinx us Pete. Shut your pie hole
October 14th, 2018 at 2:54 PM ^
Sllloooooooowwwwwww down
October 14th, 2018 at 3:00 PM ^
Not sure who Finebum is but this is the first time in the post-Carr era that it has felt like Michigan is a legit contender. 2016 was close but O-line play wasn't where it needed to be for us to have a legit shot. This team has very few weak spots. Injuries are probably the biggest concern and even then it feels like we have the depth to make it not matter.
October 14th, 2018 at 3:05 PM ^
Thanks for the vote of confidence Paul. We do seem very good. Not unbeatable but clearly among the 10 best teams.
October 14th, 2018 at 3:07 PM ^
Finebaum is just positioning himself. If Michigan beats Sparty next week, he can double down. If they lose, he can enjoy the attention (as always, the whole point in an advertising medium) he'll get for his ridiculous pronouncement the prior week.
October 14th, 2018 at 3:09 PM ^
Fuck that guy, for me he doesn't get to talk stupid shit and jump on the bandwagon when it suits him.
