University of Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh announced on Twitter
Wednesday night that his team will hold a screening of “American Sniper”
after the school pulled a showing when some students called it “anti-Muslim.”

Shortly after coach Harbaugh’s tweet, the University of Michigan reversed
course and said their decision to cancel the screening was wrong. See the rest of story here....

Bravo Jim Harbaugh! It’s enough to make me a Michigan fan. Well, almost....

Well, you can’t expect anyone on the faculty or in admin to stand up, not in Ann Arbor (it rivals Berkeley, Boulder, Madison, and Austin for looniness).

I grew up a die-hard Michigan fan, and I must say at this time I’m a heck of a lot more enthused for Michigan than Florida right now.

I'd never much cared for Harbaugh until now. U of M still sucks with its court-defying admissions quotas, but this "affirmative action" by Harbaugh is one I support.

I root for the Bucks, even lived in the football stadium scholarship dorm back in the 60’s, but last year’s surprising national championship have Ohio fans wearing scarlet and gray colored glasses. I caution the fans I know to remember 24-12 in 1969. Bo and the Wolves upset the undefeated and defending national champ Buckeyes in Ann Arbor. The similarities in situations between 2015 and 1969 favor the Skunk Weasels. Harbaugh will quickly restore M*chigan football to elite status. Urban will find that payback can be a b*tch.

That's when he'll start hitting the Prilosec, we've seen that movie before.

Good for Coach Harbaugh... nice to know there’s at least one man on staff.

Don’t care for either of the Harbaugh coaching brothers’ personalities, but my hat is off to this Patriotic stand.
