In Most Ridiculous Claim Ever, 49er's Guard Alex Boone Says Jim Harbaugh Might Be Clinically Insane
(Source) Tuesday’s new episode of HBO’s Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel includes a look not only at Seattle’s quarterback but also at the former San Francisco head coach who no longer has to deal with Russell Wilson. Andrea Kremer profiles new Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh, who has returned to Ann Arbor decades after he once patrolled the sidelines as a boy — and actually once ran into the end zone to celebrate a touchdown.It happened not only when Jim Harbaugh was a youth, but also as an adult. And that may have contributed to his departure from the 49ers.
“He does a great job of giving you that spark, that initial boom,” 49ers guard Alex Boone tells Kremer. “But after a while, you just want to kick his ass. . . . He just keeps pushing you, and you’re like, ‘Dude, we got over the mountain. Stop. Let go.’ He kind of wore out his welcome.” “What does that mean?” Kremer asks.
“I think he just pushed guys too far. He wanted too much, demanded too much, expected too much. You know, ‘We gotta go out and do this. We gotta go out and do this. We gotta go out and do this.’ And you’d be like, ‘This guy might be clinically insane. He’s crazy.’ . . . I think that if you’re stuck in your ways enough, eventually people are just going to say, ‘Listen, we just can’t work with this.’”
Boone also said something that shed’s light on the perspective of the locker room. “The players had nothing to do with him getting fired,” Boone says, which suggests that the players aren’t buying the whole “mutual parting” thing.
…
Hahahaha, crazy? Jim Harbaugh? Ok Alex Boone, whatever you say boss. I guess we’re at the point now where we can just throw shit at the wall and hope it sticks. Make up lies in interviews to get your spin on a story out there. Fabricate things and state wild claims that have no facts. Because if I know one thing in life it’s that Jim Harbaugh is not crazy. Hard working? Competitive? Motivated? Sure. But Crazy? HELL NO.
