The Harbaugh-Schwartz incident reminded me of this old Mr. Show sketch

I couldn’t watch yesterday’s post-game incident between 49ers’ coach Jim Harbaugh and Lions’ coach Jim Schwartz without being reminded of this 1996 sketch from Mr. Show With Bob and David. It’s a 7-minute sketch, and the similarities don’t become clear until about 6 minutes in, but it’s worth the watch (if only because Mr. Show was awesome).
