I don't understand this post whatsoever.
BET - Is this the appropriate response? Seems to do the trick lately...

JH once told wilton speight to avoid eating chicken (the night before a big game) because its a nervous bird. He has now changed his views on chickens..low maintenance, highly productive!
November 13th, 2023 at 1:09 PM ^
The point of this post is Jim Harbaugh is a national treasure and we have him and we should never let him go.
November 13th, 2023 at 1:54 PM ^
Somebody has to take over for Mike Leach.
November 13th, 2023 at 2:58 PM ^
Is he America’s coach? 😅
November 13th, 2023 at 1:31 PM ^
Damone in the course of the time when JH was being raked over the coals by Everyone in America for two weeks, it was revealed that the man owns some chickens.
November 13th, 2023 at 1:41 PM ^
First good laugh in awhile. I love eccentricity.
November 13th, 2023 at 3:18 PM ^
Who could ever dislike a man capable of quotes like this?
And then I play with them, too. I let them out in the yard. We run around and they're happy to see me. They're happy to see me. There's times when I do good things for other people and they're not as happy to see me as my chickens are So it's good. It's good for my mental health as well. And get fresh eggs every day. Highly productive. Highly productive.

Great meat, eggs, and fertilizer production.
Incidentally, I recall a local insufferable-Karens-lashing-out at chicken ownership in the Barton Hills area a year or two ago. Perhaps linked?
November 13th, 2023 at 2:04 PM ^
For those that are lost. See clip below about harbaugh telling speight to avoid chicken.
His daughter posted on twitter this weekend of her dad’s love for family , his team ( players and coaches) , players are like sons to him, Michigan AND surprisingly his chickens.
So that is what ties it all together.

At the opening regarding his raspy voice:
I’m the iron wall that viruses bash against and shatter. I'll do some pushups and eat an apple.
November 13th, 2023 at 1:02 PM ^
you got your layers, those are more the skill position birds.
and then you've got your meat birds - big, slow, stupid, eat a ton, immovable when they want to be. those are your lineman.
they aren't nervous. they lay around and eat and sit in the sun.
November 13th, 2023 at 1:10 PM ^
Does that make Kenneth Grant the love child of these two?
November 13th, 2023 at 1:15 PM ^
he's a special breed, a 'grant-racer-cross'. only one known in existence and thank God, he's ours.
November 13th, 2023 at 1:22 PM ^
Kenneth Grant, the turbochicken
November 13th, 2023 at 2:47 PM ^
KG is gonna run the indoor sixty for Michigan track this year.
November 13th, 2023 at 2:50 PM ^
and when he hits the finish line tape, it'll explode
November 13th, 2023 at 3:20 PM ^
Dangle a picture of Kyle McCord at the finish.
November 13th, 2023 at 4:51 PM ^
Like detcord!
November 13th, 2023 at 5:50 PM ^
New nickname for KG. Let's push for it.
November 13th, 2023 at 3:52 PM ^
In Jonny Cash's autobiography, he writes that an ostrich he was keeping as a bet attacked him, cut open his abdomen, and put him in the hospital for weeks.
If Kenneth Grant is avian, that is his progenitor.
November 13th, 2023 at 1:11 PM ^
I have four hens. These are the most savage creatures I know of. Thank God they aren't any bigger... Nothing rat-size or smaller goes into the hen house without getting turned into eggs or poop.
November 13th, 2023 at 1:30 PM ^
And by all means let us not forget that they provide hackle feathers! Waste not, want not.
November 13th, 2023 at 2:33 PM ^
funny,. we don't have exotic chickens though, so our feathers are pretty 'meh'. i usually use turkey and grouse feathers when fly-tying. we hunt those, so the feathers are available.
November 13th, 2023 at 4:56 PM ^
As I kid I couldn’t afford a Metz blue dun cape so I resorted to dying natural white capes in the kitchen. My mother was displeased at the sight.
November 13th, 2023 at 6:56 PM ^
So when the nut heads call us “meat chicken” they’re low key complimenting our OL and DL prowess.
Makes a lot of sense, actually…
November 13th, 2023 at 1:03 PM ^
Asked Harbaugh how he was informed Friday — he said someone reached over his shoulder upon landing in State College and showed him a social media post on a cell phone

Fuck you, Big Ten.

Multi-Billion dollars of annual revenue btw. Very professional organization
November 13th, 2023 at 1:33 PM ^
The boos that are gonna rain down when that twerp has to hand Jimmy the championship trophy is going to be sweet music.
November 13th, 2023 at 4:21 PM ^
I predict a no show.
November 13th, 2023 at 1:43 PM ^
The fact that ESPN was informed first, and Harbaugh had to find out via social media....
There's nothing anyone can say at this point that would convince me this isn't personal on at least some level.
November 13th, 2023 at 1:04 PM ^
This is never off topic.
November 13th, 2023 at 1:07 PM ^
I chuckled loudly while watching earlier as Coach Harbaugh describe life among chicken and his newfound respect for the natural (as opposed to the mangy BigTen variety) ways of this low-maintenance and highly productive bird 🐔. He was especially complimentary towards the hens.
It's a must-watch, once it's posted on YouTube or your preferred source* for all positive things re: Harbaugh.

Ryan Day is definitely a nervous bird.
November 13th, 2023 at 1:11 PM ^
We're dealing more with jive turkeys than nervous chickens lately.
November 13th, 2023 at 1:32 PM ^
It ain't cool bein' a jive turkey this close to Thanksgiving.
November 13th, 2023 at 2:00 PM ^
YEAH!
November 13th, 2023 at 1:13 PM ^
Love Coach's demeanor. The whole thing's got to be super frustrating to him, but at the same time he's got to have so much pride in seeing how the staff and team have rallied together and pushed on without him (and for him).
November 13th, 2023 at 1:27 PM ^
James Franklin speaking now, I couldn't help but laugh.
reporter : "James, whats the time line on hiring a new OC"?
James: "sooner rather than later but hiring someone is a full time job, I don't have time for 2 full time jobs "
Me " I know a guy that just managed 3 full time jobs and kicked your ass "
November 13th, 2023 at 10:15 PM ^
Brian Ferentz is tanned, rested, and ready!
November 13th, 2023 at 1:28 PM ^
Our coach is hilarious and wonderful.
Go Blue.

If the question is "how can calling someone a dang weirdo be a high compliment", well, there's your answer.
November 13th, 2023 at 2:54 PM ^
This is aMAIZEing.
November 13th, 2023 at 3:06 PM ^
The fact that he went on for that long about the chickens… I think it’s hilarious. He seems like a pretty likable person. Even more so lately.
November 13th, 2023 at 3:24 PM ^
Jim Harbaugh is constantly evolving.
