Are there really posters who care about the quality of a post-game handshake? Should we ask Steve Grogan to start giving out weekly grades on BB's handshakes?

Even if it once had meaning, the post-game handshake has become little more than a media "gotcha" opportunity a handful of times each year when one coach supposedly doesn't do it right.
Couldnt agree more

As much I hate the Ravens, I have a lot of respect for John Harbaugh (Unlike his douche brother in SF). I thought Tomlin came across like a jacka55...

I remember reading a great article about the handshake in the NFL, back when the mediots were crying about the way Belichick treated Ratgini. Here it is for those who haven't seen it.

Actually, you could say that Harbaugh treated Tomlin the way a dick deserves to be treated when he jerked him.

Lacks class? Lacks integrity? Jeez.

Oh yeah, I am sure you gents were supporting the Jaguars coach when Tom Coughlin, instead of shaking his hand, gave him an earful after the Gints-Jags game (when the Jags D acted classless and rushed the Gints OL in spite of knowing that the Manning was taking the knee in the last few seconds).

Who knows what Harbaugh did for Tomlin to keep him at a lower level and not give him the basic respect?

Respect is something to be earned.

Wish the fans stop this condescending judgement of another man's actions/in-actions without knowing the full story.

I agree but if they're going to show respect they should...oh, I don't know...actually show respect toward one another. I could care less whether coaches shake hands or not but what is the point of insincerely shaking hands and being a tool toward one another? Just go your seperate ways and spare the insults to our collective intelligence with the "pretend respect".
