You should know better!
Seriously though, thanks for sharing these.

is a ridiculous douchebag with a pickle up his ass.
April 27th, 2018 at 11:39 AM ^
No pickle deserves that.

Fuck off don. Are you a little upset that your wife left you because you spend your entire fucking day on sports blogs? Get a life dbag.

I was just in Pairs a few weeks ago... would have been great to run into Harbaugh in the street.
April 27th, 2018 at 10:43 AM ^
I didn’t know you were an ice dancer
April 27th, 2018 at 10:47 AM ^
Shhh... don't tell anyone. I like the way the tights feel on my legs. Not sure why my phone corrected Paris to Pairs...

Allez les Bleus

amazing time for Harbaugh right now. He is enjoying the time with the team and getting the news about Patterson being eligible should invigorate him even more. I am sure he was expecting the news but hearing it more from an official standpoint has to be exhilarating. Pieces of the puzzle are falling into place and I can't wait for the season to get here. Go Blue!!!

How else would he hear it?
From a friend who, heard from a friend who, heard it from another.
He was messing around?

because you can't make just one thread with both links
April 27th, 2018 at 11:24 AM ^
Eh, it doesn't really become a major problem until we get the inevitable round of sarcastic / satirical threads highlighting random people in Paris, so while separate threads is certainly not space-efficient, it isn't a catastrophe in this case. Besides, what realistically are we pushing to the second page in April?
I came across the second video after I had finished posting the first. Apparently this was a pretty bad faux pas because someone spent a few minute giving me about 60 downvotes.
I was completely unaware of this rule of not posting 2 posts. I can see a few people assumed the worst.

I just want the circus to end and win games. Plus, won’t our players get sissified just being in Paris???

Now THAT would be an interesting trip for the players!
April 27th, 2018 at 12:14 PM ^
The players spending time in Paris should just make them more pissed off because they have to deal with French people! Hopefully they can channel that hostility and use it to destroy teams next season.
April 27th, 2018 at 12:19 PM ^
Man, I try to avoid stereotypes. But if anyone that's been to Paris can look at me with a straight face and say they aren't (on average) a rude group of people, I'll be shocked.

I've been a few times with friends who live there and are married/connected to Parisians so admittedly had a different experience than someone who went without that. Helps a lot to be with someone at least conversational in French.
Would agree that many don't suffer tourist strangers, but Americans abroad aren't always *great* guests.
I have lived in Geneva for 15 years and speak French... maybe it's just because the French around here also have bad attitudes so I lump in Parisians with that group.
Having said that... they did screw me with the SNCF rolling strike as my train to Paris was cancelled and I had to book an expensive flight... then on the same trip a few days later, the French air traffic controllers were on strike and delayed my plane... therefore, the French do not sit well with me.
I would hold that grudge close to my heart. Down with the French State and/or* Labor!
*presenting all revolutionary options to avoid politics
I will be applying for Swiss citizenship this year, so I think it is a requirement to dislike the French if you are Swiss... :-)
My experience has been that Parisians will be quite charming if you speak a little French and are polite. Sadly, they see many Americans who are very rude.
If you go to Paris and loudly shout at strangers in English, yes, some people will be put off. I've seen tourists do that - it's cringeworthy.
OTOH, if you make a little effort to greet people in French (no matter how terrible your French is) and generally avoid being the loudest person in the room, you shouldn't have many issues.
My post sounded anti-French, but really wasn't. For instance, I like New Yorkers from NYC even less than Parisian French. After 2 or 3 days in NYC, I want to nuke the place...
You'd be ornery too if you had to talk through your nose all the time, and eat snails and frogs. Just saying.
Eh, Michiganders are as nasal in their speech as French people. And frog legs are really good (escargot, I'm not as into). After getting used to eating French cuisine every day, coming back to American food can be rough.
And like any other big city, lots of aholes rushing around who get annoyed when you're in their way.. Many are detestable simply because they think you have to dress in Armani to go down to the cafe and have a coffee. Now if you get out into the country you will see the real France, a great place with awesome people and much better food. The first and only awful meal I have eaten in France was in a latin quarter Greek restaurant. Any Greek place in metro Detroit would blow the doors off that dump.
i lived there for a little over a year during high school and it was one of the best years of my life. locals would be rude to the stereotypical ‘ugly american’ tourists, but i never had any problems personally
Turn in your clown badge sir.

Are people just downvoting the OP for making 2 different posts? Or am I supposed to hate this guy? Tell me what to do!
April 27th, 2018 at 12:16 PM ^
Probably because he's new and people suspect he's someone that's been banned. Which is petty and shows that some people need to get past their being bullied in HS days. As far as asking what to do....Group Think and Mob Mentality are always great ideas.
April 27th, 2018 at 12:57 PM ^
Which is unfortunate because it dissuades other “new” people like myself from posting new topics. I’ll occasionally consider it, then remind myself that I don’t feel like getting needlessly flamed by a bunch of internet trolls. Casually observing has always been more my forte anyway
If you see something interesting and post it most will appreciate it. We're very thirsty people when it comes to Michigan info.
I wouldn't blame you if you just keep your current points total in perpetuity because it's apropros for your avi/handle.
Interesting take. I’ve learned that people aren’t too thirsty.
You're probably right to stay away. You'll get someone running through you comment history downvoting you.
The truth is, I didn't know both videos existed when I posted the first one. I came accorss the second one after I had finished posting the first one.
Here's the funny thing---I assumed people on here would want to see both videos. I checked first before posting BOTH of the them to see if anyone else had posted either already. Didn't see them anywhere. What a crazy thought to have occurred to me that the readers here would like to see them.
Silly me.
User who has been banned
No, I'm an avid reader of the site and the comments and it's hilarious how people like YOU latch on to newbies because you have nothing better to do with your life. The reason i never created an account was because of people like YOU, but I figured oh well there's douchers everywhere. Sorry you were picked on in HS, it will all be ok, those people don't care about you anymore and you shouldn't care about them either. Let it go.
April 27th, 2018 at 12:09 PM ^
I don’t even know what that means.
No one knows what it means, but it’s provocative!
April 27th, 2018 at 12:53 PM ^
Baugh so hard, motherfuckas wanna fine me.
That shit cray
I love the bit right at the midpoint of the video where he talks about them not being on their phones--great punch line.
I also appreciated that he said he didn't do the planning for this trip. I defended him when people complained about the Rome trip as a distraction, but hearing him explain how much work he put into planning that trip I'm now not so sure. Either way, though, this seems to me to be a great thing for the players to be able to do.
