Everyone Murders

Just so long as there are no advertisements in the stadium.  We need to maintain a sense of decorum at the Big House.

(FWIW, I hate the idea of WrestleMania at the Big House, but also strongly suspect that Harbaugh is not seriously advocating the idea.  Now if Brandon said it, I would be worried.)

I also hate the idea but I suspect Harbaugh would be totally down with it.  He may not be as involved as he says above, but this seems like the kind of thing he would get a kick out of.  You can't imagine a young Jim practicing moves on John back in the day?

I was a big fan of Jimmy Superfly Snuka until I found out he killed his girlfriend, allegedly. I enjoyed the schmaltz of Leaping Lanny Poffo, a seriously underrated performer. But for my money, nothing compares to the Road Warriors, circa mid-80's on TNT's NWA world championship wrestling. The marriage of the Road Warriors, the Raider-fan costumes they wore, and their Iron Man theme music scared the crap out of me as a pre-teen wrestling fan.

The Four Horsemen with Ole and Arn Anderson was the best group, Whooooo!!!!

“Why not the Big House?” Harbaugh said, according to CBS Detroit blog, after he called back. “Why not? 140,000 I bet we could get in there for WrestleMania. They’re trying to break the attendance record at Jerry Jones’ Stadium in Dallas. A great Canadian presence in wrestling. Why not Michigan and the Big House?”

Whether it ever happened or not, the idea of Jim Harabugh as a corner guy at a wrestling match is pretty, well, Harbaugh and I am sure that rival blogs would have something to say about that none of us would care about anyway. While not being a wrestling person per se, I admit that I'd applaud if Harbaugh came out of a tunnel during a match waving a towel.
