Question of the Day - 05/22

[sb41champs]

Former Colts QB & current San Francisco 49er's head coach JIM HARBAUGH will drive the pace car for Sunday's "Indianapolis 500" !!

 

WITHOUT LOOKING IT UP ONLINE:

 

WHY was Harbaugh selected over other celebrities ??

[Ja'Crispy]

Because nobody has it better than he does?

[GoColts8818]

Because Hrbaugh has ties to Indianapolis as well as owning part of an Indy Car Team and that team is a Chevy team and Chevy picks the pace car driver.

[TKnight24]

Umm, because he threatened to unleash his Defense on them?

Wow. That was more insightful than I thought I was going to get reading this thread.

Didn't he play for the Colts briefly?

ummm, yeah. he was the first decent qb of the indy era and nearly led us to a superbowl appearance in 1995. he played the best football of his career for the colts. he was a real pleasure to watch after so many years of ho-hum qb play

 

harbaugh was selected because the couldn't get anyone better. izod is on their way out as the series sponsor & are not putting resources into attracting celebrities

 

to be fair, harbaugh is a former team owner & a huge indycar fan. when asked how he felt about the opportunity, he mentioned off the top of his head that james garner aka jim rockford drove the pace car in 75, 77, & 85. that gets a lot of respect from me

Because the crowd wants to hear him say "Who's got it better than us? Nobody!

[southwest1]

Umm, because he threatened to unleash his Defense on them?

I wouldn't want Justin Smith bearing down on me man. LOL TK85!
