OT - ESPN has Harbaugh Judge Judy fandom on front page
Yes we all know about Harbaugh and his dad's love and admiration for Judge Judy, manifested so magnificently in the well known video clip. I believe this is the first time that a mainstream outlet like ESPN has prominently featured this fact. Judge Judy's recent shout out to Jim on Twitter surely helped propel the story. I guess it's not just Michigan fans and MGoBloggers who can't get enough of Jim's irresistable zaniness. http://espn.go.com/blog/bigten/post/_/id/116433/jim-harbaugh-a-happy-man-after-twitter-shout-out-from-judge-judy
Harbaugh is always on topic IMHO!
I don't really care about Judge Judy or anything, I just am so happy knowing how much our rivals must hate this, and knowing that he is in all likelihood going to win and win a lot. And our rivals are going to hate him so much and not be able to do anything about it.
Spot on. The Judge Judy stuff is quirky and goofy and sand in the undies of many MSU and OSU fans.
Just win games
has been all over ESPN front page lately
Media microscopes & megaphones. They'll find the smallest Harbaugh stuff and shout it to the rooftops. Good, bad, ugly and goofy. Sparty and Bucknuts ears will bleed, and they'll hate the attention (excepting the bad & ugly).
Useless fact of the day:
Judge Judy makes more money than any daytime show by a landslide.

Not just daytime...think she's the highest paid person in television period. Not sure what the new deal pays, but her last one was worth $47 million a year.

has a net worth of about $200 million. This just boggles my mind.
and I probably deserve it for being an elitist douche, but that fact that Harbaugh loves Judge Judy makes me like him just a little bit less. Not a lot, from a 100% approval rating to 98%, but its there.
His virtues are myriad, but I can't get over liking Judge Judy.
Okay then tell us what you like so we can make sure all of the things that appeal to you conform to mainstream pop culture.
You are an elitist douche.
Her show is probably the #1 place in the country for people learning the important laws about how we interact with each other.
is the #1 place people get their news
you like him even just 2% less because of this isn't the issue...its that you felt it necessary to unburden your soul upon us regarding this fact.
I'm sure there's shit you like that some of us would be left with a "WTF" reaction, too. Different strokes and all...
May I genuinely ask, not knowing much about her other than seeing her show once or twice and seeing her doing C-list celebrity things, what you don't like about her?
I just don't like making drama out of other people's lives when it can be avoided. Stuff like Judge Judy, entertainment news, realtiy TV, ESPN's breathless coverage of Brett Favre and Tiger Woods' infidelity, involves real people with real problems who are often going through the worst moments of their lives and I wish people would be content to leave them alone if possible. Of course it is not always possible as these things can have broader implications, like athletes or comedians assutling people or politicans abusing their office.
people who agree to go on judge judy or maury povich are in it for the money. they're happy embellishing their issues and acting up in front of the cameras for a few bucks. anyone appearing on judge judy is having far from the worst moments of their lives. it's strictly entertainment - judge judy knows it, the plaintiffs/defendents know it, and the viewing audience knows it (or should).
entertainment news is just vapid.
paparazzi coverage of people's issues, on the other hand, is less-than-respectable by a country mile.
I'm sure you are right but I don't think its any better because people are getting paid for it. Its not just that it exploits other people's problems. It also triggers humanity's instinct to point and laugh (which I am not immune to as you can see in my first post).
Does anyone in your life enjoy that Kardashian crap? I'm sure someone does. You like them less as well?
I'm not a fan of JJ personally (she's a bit too prickly for me) but, I do watch her show and have for quite some time. I remember watching that episode with JH in the audience and when they did that quick cut to, I about died laughing because I was like wow, Jim really likes this show too.
Think what you want about JJ but that woman can give anyone an education. She breaks down the law very well with explanations and while I'm not a lawyer, it has def smarten me up to certain legal things and just how people operate. She's sharp as a tack and I love how she lays into the stupid idiots that decide to come on the show thinking they're going to get away with something.
I can see why JH watches... :)
he really, really appreciates excellence, no matter where he finds it. Remember the story of him watching a traffic cop in SD for an hour because he was so good at it. I think we got the right guy.
She's not an actual judge. she's an arbitrator. I wouldn't say you should get your legal knowledge from the show.
Why other fans consider Michigan douchey and arrogant. Go ahead, place your head in the sand and expect the rest of America to conform to your idealistic way of living.

Opposite reaction. It makes me like Judge Judy MORE
Well played!
There are many worse things someone can like on which to judge negatively. Duck Dynasty, Kardashian crap, Jerry Springer. Any of those would probably be a little embarrassing and out of character. Judge Judge is just funny.
That's fair.
Think about how much stress college coaches go through in their daily routine. It's a pressure-packed job. So why not have a bit of cheap entertainment to unwind? He still quotes far more 18th-century authors on Twitter than the average coach.
I hadn't thought of that. I suppose if you are working that hard you might want to give that super intensity a rest now and then.
In the courtroom arena Judge Judy >>>>>>>>Aaron Hernandez
Harbaugh +1
I want Les to come back. I don't even care if he coaches, I just want him and Harbaugh together for the entertainment
a home-and-home with LSU?
about Michigan playing LSU with Miles there as coach. Does his love for Michigan make him throw the game? Or does he try to curb stomp us for not hiring him?
You don't win a national championship without being hyper competitive.
He would look to win, and big.
a home and home would be sweet!!
Why a home-and-home? We should play a one-off in Anchorage. No good teams there, so we could totally get in on their fanbase.
Expand the brand.

Anyone think that Harbaugh invites her for a game? I wouldn't mind. It's funny and quirky. We all have our quirks.
If the world were entirely like me, it would be good looking, great hair but boring as crap.
