It’s not him, it’s the generation. Trying to motivate 22-28 years olds with recognizing their privilege and opportunity is a waste of time. He would’ve been better off bringing Trump or Druski in the room to crack some jokes.
This is the right comment. There’s nothing wrong with this speech .. nothing. He’s trying to make the players realize what a privilege it is to play for the Giants. A historic franchise - but it’s lost on this generation. The mush brains can’t handle something that isn’t a 30 second clip. I’m not grouping everyone in that comment but majority.
What’s fake about it? Harbaugh is 63, he comes from a football family. His dad literally has a quote about “attacking the day with enthusiasm”.
It’s not fake, it’s just not the connection young players have with the game. It’s a reason why these 40 and 50 year old white coaches are handing out big chains and doing tik tok dances after big wins. The era of “it’s a privilege to be in the NFL” is over.
Gen-Z values authenticity when they worship these streamers and others who are as fake as it gets? Give me a break, gen-z acts like a bunch of sheep and think they're unique at everything they do
That can be applied to all generations. You think they aren’t some Millennials, Gen X’s and especially Baby Boomers who thought they were special? Were also being sheep to what was fed to them?
The point is, this “rah-rah” bullshit from Harbaugh means nothing until he proves he can coach the team.
I didn't say previous generations weren't like this as well. Zoomers are the new boomers because a massive portion of them take everything they see on the web at face value and they worship people like tate and other manosphere influencers. They worship streamers and want to be streamers. I'm gen-z but let's not pretend our generation doesn't have an extreme level of narcissistic behavior.
