On the eve of Election Day, Jim Harbaugh took in a Hillary Clinton rally at Michigan’s baseball stadium, featuring President Obama.
Jim Harbaugh canceled his weekly press conference to go see President Obama
Hail To the Victors/Chief
But Harbaugh never ended up giving that press conference Monday. Obviously he had better things to do.
But Harbaugh did do his weekly radio show Monday night, and he talked about the experience.
“Well I guess I was in the vicinity with probably 10,000 other Michigan people. Many students. What a big thrill. A student that attends a speech by the president of the United States. The leader of the free world, that’s a signature moment in their educational experience. My son James was there. ... 5:30 this morning, he texted me and told me he was in line.”
But how’d he score those sweet seats?
It also sounds like Obama and Harbaugh have spoken at some point very recently. Obama opened his speech saying, “I know you guys are feeling pretty good right now, 9-0. It’s impressive. Although, I talk to coach Harbaugh and he’s all like ‘no, no. Next game. We got a long way to go.’ So he’s focused.”
If Harbaugh has indeed got Obama’s ear, we trust the coach’s nomination for the Supreme Court has been heard by the leader of the free world.
