Mike Tomlin and John Harbaugh Had a Tense, Awkward Handshake After the Steelers Beat the Ravens

All, NFL, Video Jason McIntyre December 2nd. 2012, 8:23pm

John Harbaugh, being civil: “Congratulations.”
Mike Tomlin, clearly in a hurry: “Thank You.”
John Harbaugh, feeling he’s being brushed off, pulling Tomlin back: “Hey, hey, hey, congratulations.”
Tomlin, who has better places to be: “Thank You, that’s all,” (at least it sounded like “that’s all”) with an unfriendly stare. [UPDATE: Some of you seem to think Tomlin said, "Thank you, good job."]

John Harbaugh was left wondering what the hell happened (in the game and in this moment). So I am, frankly.

Steelers 23, Ravens 20.

Ravens defense in the 4th quarter was laughable. I couldn’t believe the Steelers kept the ball for so long and just milked the clock.

Chargers will be too busy shivering on the sideline to actually compete.

Weather was actually warm up there while I was up. Granted not San Diego warm, but a hell of a lot warmer than it usually is up there that time of year.

Meth, even if it’s unseasonably warm, Rivers has been turning the ball over like it’s cold outside. I think SD has pretty much checked out for the year.

Trolling is surprisingly just as fun as angling. I caught the biggest fish I’ve ever caught trolling plugs for walleye. Big ass catfish.

That fish story was from May. I haven’t fished since beginning of October and I need to. As much as it sucks being on the beach when it gets colder (that wind is miserable coming off the water), a lot of bigger fish get pulled in from the surf when the waters cold.

You wonder what happened? Harbaugh is a d***. He’s always pulling some kind of crap, so why do you expect Tomlin to buddy up with him. He kept it professional. Win, shake hands, and you’re done. No need for socializing with someone you think is an a-hole.

I watched about 5 minuted total of the PIT/BAL game. Don’t really care for either team and don’t like to bet for/against each of them for that fact cause i believe my “feelings” come into play when I bet it. Anyways, BAL’s been living on borrowed time now for many weeks. For PIT to walk in there with a QB that is as old as Moses and beat them is hilarious. BAL are a bunch of frauds. BAL will be knocked out in the 1st round of the playoffs.
And yes, Joe Flacco still thinks he’s an “elite” QB.

Agreed. I heard his anti-gun rant in the background. I read some stories on DS about Belcher. He had some violent incidents with women in the past. He never hurt them but acted in a violent matter that harmed himself. Who’s to say when he snapped he would not have done something brutally with some other object?

He’s possibly the worst person on the planet.
So who’s the dude that Romo’s wife is kissing in the stands? Your husband threw a touchdown, how about a peck. I mean I’m sure she has needs, what with Romo spending every night at Wittens.

Pretty certain this gun, like most of the others used to commit crimes, was legally registered and would be off the streets were anti-gun legislation in place.

Damn, just saw on Twitter he quoted it. Couldn’t the guy just as easily have stabbed his girlfriend? I know suicide by knife is a lot rarer than by gun, but I wouldn’t make the assumption if he didn’t have a gun she would be alive.

That’s sorta what I always say. People have been killing other people loooong before guns were around. People will find ways to kill with other means.

Pretty sure anti-gun laws would have the same effect as anti-drug laws. Someone wants something and has the resources, they’re still going to get it.

Harbaugh totally in the right here. Take a second, look the man in the eye and move on. Wish I could find it but last season the Montreal Al’s coach tried the same thing Tomlin did….Argo’s coach chased him down and schooled him on how to be a man.

I mean, I get it if Belcher went on some killing rampage like the Aurora movie theater dude. Then I get the argument of you don’t really hear of or see someone killing 15 people at once with a knife. But this was domestic violence with Belcher having really just one target (besides himself I guess). If you’re going to try to make a gun control stand, pick a better example to make it on than this.

First of all, Tomlin clearly said “good job”, not “that’s all”. And I don’t “seem to think” that’s what he said, I KNOW that’s what he said. Anyway, it was conveniently left out that Harbaugh did the same thing to Tomlin 2 weeks ago. Except Harbaugh said NOTHING, he barely stuck his hand out and brushed off Tomlin. It was obvious he did it purposely. Why don’t you post THAT video on here also. Payback’s a bitch, ain’t it?

Wow, you guys are all pathetic. He said “Thank you, good talk.” He was clearly telling Harbaugh to stick it. That’s what you say to someone that you don’t like and don’t want to talk to – “Good talk.”
