Just because Jim Harbaugh is one of the best coaches in college football, doesn't mean he doesn't cut his own lawn. According to Sports Illustrated's Pat Forde, the Michigan Wolverines head coach actually loves it...
quote:

"New: Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh ranks among the richest Americans who mow their own lawns. And he wants to know why the youth of America isn't out there with him cutting the grass. "Mowing the lawn is one of the great feelings I have in life.”

I could grow to like this guy.
I had a coronary bypass after widow-maker blocked at a young age.
Doc: Walk the neighborhood or treadmill.
Me: Thanks for the advice, but I'll mow my 3 acres with a walk behind mower.
After 17 years I tore a ligament in my foot, so now I ZT it. But I still have my walk behind...trimmer, Stihl chain saw, and long-handled log splitter.

Moved into neighborhood and got a "you aren't going to hire so/so..to maintain your yard?"
I agree with Jim. There is instant gratification in cutting grass and edging/hedging...and I like having the tools

He may not have a CFP semi win, but at least he has his lawnmower.

It is when it's a big enough lawn to make it an actual task to enjoy. Not many kids he is dealing with have that luxury, IF they have a family lawn at all. Many live in apts, where they get use to not having to do much at all home upkeep wise.

With the headphones in listening to music, beer in the cup holder and no other distractions while mowing is a wonderful feeling.

Even better feeling than winning a playoff game.

Jim's a strange ranger, but I have to agree with him.

I agree with him but he probably mows in his Dockers pleated front Khakis. I go shorts as the swamp arse monster is real here in the lower South.

This man is a tool but he's right about this. Mow your own damn lawn!

It can suck on a hot day but the satisfaction of a great-looking lawn and cold beer once the task is done is a great thing.

Cold beer is a must.
