"Our chatter" vs "Their chatter"

Submitted by hazardc on

The one thing that has seemed consistent over the past couple weeks is that most of the base here seems pretty much 80%+ that  JH will end up coming back to A2.

 

ESPN barely touched the issue, even with Michigan apparently laying out a deal that would make him the highest paid football coach, period. 

 

A lot of commentators over the past week have been so gung-ho on saying Harbaugh would never be leaving the NFL, as if it were just an impossible thing. My thing is that I really think of NCAA football when I think of legendary COACHES, and both NCAA and NFL when I think of legendary PLAYERS.

 

Their arguments on where they believe Jim is going seem to be based on either some sort of logical fallacy or just throwing darts at a wall with a blindfold on....

 

Could their "information" have anything to do with the line on the sports books when it was  at a ridiculous 8-1?  I've noticed a huge shift on the sports networks where they prety much give betting advice (especially on ESPN).... Do the books have influence over these outlets?  Are they trying to hedge those losses? It seems like a LOT of "us" got in on those odds... and our "inside information" seems to consistently be 180 degrees off from their " inside information" 

The same with saying Harbaugh turned down the offer and Michigan came back with the metric-assload of money. It just seemed like a load of shit that they made up to keep people thinking he never wanted the job at all. 


Should I be wearing tin foil?

 

No, I haven't been drinking tonight, though this week has been quite sleepless.
