[LOCKED] Harbaugh invites Obama honorary team captain
http://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/college/university-michigan/201…
No politics is a good rule to keep in mind here.
From a football perspective - Obama is likely very popular amongst most of the kids we recruit and building some ties to a President re-inforces what we are as an accademic institution.
From recruiting, I view this is a big score.
MOD EDIT - This one is starting to go in all sorts of directions that it shouldn't. It was a nice bit of news, not political in the least really by itself, but alas....the search for nice things begins again. - LSA
I got them shits right, yo.
In my best Wallace from The Wire voice.
The famous "nugget" conversation (http://www.thewireblog.net/season-1/episode2_thedetail/underground-nugg…)
As well as most of this community based on the votes on your comments, but nice comeback. Mr. Yost, why do you get all douchey sometimes? Most of the time you are great and have valuable insights, but damn. Every once in awhile you just get all crabby reeeeaaalll quick.
Keep politics out of football Jim. Unreal.
Harbaugh invited Trump to be an honorary captain last year and he declined because he was in the middle of campaigning.
But yeah seeing the reaction if he accepted would've been interesting to say the least.
He also invited Michelle Obama last year as well.

the Rich Eisen show was prior to the Obama and alt-left media decided to assisinate Trump's charachter - July 16 according to MLive.
You're a tool.
Generally speaking, tools are useful in some capacity. They just are only practical in specific situations.
He's more like a piece of shit. Smelly waste rejected from the rest of the smelly waste.
...Wait, did I just say he was banned from MLive?
In particular, read the "UNWELCOME, KTHX" section. I don't think Bolivia is particularly nice this time of year.
i can't tell whether to upvote or downvote this. so, well done.
you deserve all the upvotes for beating me to it tho
I'm hoping the misspellings are intentional and there was a /s you forgot?
Depends on who/where you ask. I know a hell of a lot more DJT supporters than liberal democrats. Hard to believe too considering I'm a union worker.
Mississippi?
A middle class suburb about 3 miles outside of Detroit......
That's true, people would flip, and there are very good reasons for that which have nothing to do with politics.
There's plenty of room for reasonable and respectful policy disagreements between adults. And then there's stuff which has nothing to do with policy or politics and everything to do with being a thoroughly reprehensible human being.
- “I moved on her like a bitch, but I couldn’t get there. And she was married.”
- “I did try and fuck her. She was married.”
- “Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.”
- “Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.”
for reminding us of how the fake news of the left and the lies and deciet of the Democratic National Committee cost Bernie Sanders the nomination and likely the presidency as well. But, so long was we have you on the board to perpetuate fake news, we'll continue to be enlightened with lies.
Man, CGI got REALLY good when I wasn't paying attention.
My hunch is that he's from Moldova—referencing fake news from "the left" and then whipsawing around to support Bernie is a Moldovan specialty.
It, like, records pictures of people saying shit, and you can go back and look at it later, and verify that people said the shit that we say they said. You should try it some time.
I hope you don't have children. This is the most objectively stupid thing i have read today.
I sincerely hope that never happens
exactly.
But I went to speech given by George W down here in Cayman (I even got to meet him briefly afterwards). I thought spoke really well (it was about his life, family and life after the presidency - he stayed away from politics).
I came away thinking, where was this guy for those 8 years? People would have liked this version of George W more than the deer headlights look he often gave during his formal addresses.
The "who do I want to have a beer with" test leads to some really dumb performance art, regardless of party.
You seem like a really cool guy.

I think Harbaugh is being smart here and I think Obama was an average president...oops no politics rule.
#1 Obama is popular amongst many recruits.
#2 A former president and first lady at the game would gain media attention, which helps recruiting.
#3 It is a great opportunity for the players to meet any former president.
Harbaugh is an innovator.
you have them in the wrong order. Providing experiences for his players (and himself) is what Harbaugh is all about. Whether you voted for Obama or not every 19-22 year old should relish the opportunity to meet a former President. For the same reason I would expect the team to accept the invitation to visit the White House after winning the NC regardless of who is in office.
Politics aside...one is a good, thoughtful person. the other is a hateful, moronic blow-hard.
Nailed it.
have some class. Are you a Sparty?
there's never been a more disdainful, racist individual than the one who spent the previous eight years in office...thanks for coming up with the most profound comment on this thread
Let's see, twelve Presidents owned slaves, Wilson segregated the federal government, Hayes ended Reconstruction, Buchanan endorsed Dred Scott, Nixon appointed judges to fulfill a promise to southern politicians to re-segregate the schools...
One, a Repulbican and conservative President freed the slaves: Mr. Lincoln.
The Republican Party was the more liberal party in the 1800s.
