I fucking love it so much I don't know how to say how much I love it. Let's win, please let's win so we can enjoy this for a few decades. Is it wrong to want to expect that?

Oh how I miss you Nike. Your hats fit so much better than Adidas. And your t-shirts didn't shrink into something that would be better suited to cover a pony keg versus a human man.

According to this story, you can bet in any circumstance, he'll have his one inchers on.
Brad Seely, the 49ers special teams coach, tried to make small talk with Harbaugh before a recent game. Harbaugh is famous for wearing one-inch cleats, and this game was on turf, so Seely asked, "You got turf shoes?"

Harbaugh stared at Seely with that familiar open-mouthed gaze. He stared, and stared, and stared. Seely wanted to disappear. Others know better than to talk to him. Tim Drevno, one of Harbaugh's former assistants at Stanford and San Francisco, used to carpool with him in silence -- except when they'd stop at the gas station for a can of dip, and Harbaugh would realize that, as usual, he didn't have any cash on him.

It can make Harbaugh seem spacy or rude, but everything that isn't coaching football is a distraction. It's why he "cuts the drag" and wears the same clothes every day. It's why some are put off by his curt and gruff style. And it's why, after seconds of staring, Harbaugh told Seely, "No, I got my one-inchers on," and turned away.
I'm on my phone, so please forgive the lack of formatting.

I can't explain how much I wish Bo were alive to see his prodigal son returning his wolverines to the promise land. Gotta think Bo would be super fucking pleased.

Not trying to call anyone out and definitely not trying to start anything religious, but does anyone have any insight as to when "prodigal son" took on a meaning that could apply to Harbaugh?

I'm not a Christian but from my reading of the parable and looking up the definition of "prodigal" Harbaugh seems to be pretty much the opposite, i.e. tremendously successful son of the program and (reasonably, considering his wealth) restrained spending-wise.

would have shoved Harbaugh in the Delorean in 1986 with the destination set for 2015.  In a way I felt like that was what I was watching today. 

And yes, I think he'd be very proud and happy.  Perhaps he is.
