By using the term "straightforward" his implication is clear: we've been honest (unlike BB) and now we'll be dishonest (like BB). What a douche.

Bill [Belichick] figured it out way before the rest of us did,” Harbaugh added. “His injury report’s that long, its been that way for years. We tried to do it the other way and be honest — not honest, honest is a bad word, retract that, scratch that — we tried to be straightforward with our injury report, and we got fined for it. So we’re moving on.”
Not sure what you're getting at. I didn't suggest "straightforward was his first quote", whatever that means. It was the term he used, not sure where in the sequence of his comments he used it is meaningful. Not trying to be combative, I just don't know what your point is.Straightforward was not his first quote actually

Harbaugh took it further, wondering how the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) factors into it. The HIPAA Privacy Rule protects the privacy of certain personal health information.
“Aren’t there HIPAA rights here?,” Harbaugh asked. “If I’m a player and I’ve been out there playing and I don’t want that on the injury report and I’m told I have to put that on the injury report, we’ve got some players that resent that. So yeah, I got a problem with that in all honesty.”
I'm sorry, but I don't really have any idea what your trying to convey here. I didn't think I was coming off as "uptight" at all. My real "uptight" is generally pretty easy to recognize. With that said, I agree that for the longest time I have wondered about the injury reports and HIPAA regulations. Of course, it probably wouldn't be the first example of the NFL ignoring regulations everyone else has to abide by.I think his point was fairly clearly NOT ABOUT YOU (so don't get so uptight); but rather about what HARBAUGH REALLY THINKS (that is, that BB is a liar and a cheat).
Before I saw that (what he said first and retracted); I didnt really think all the disparaging of Harbaugh was all that warranted. GoToHell has lots of stupid azz rules/points of emphasis etc that have been ruining the nfl; this is just one more. But now that I read that I have to say..... Harbaugh is just an ignorant jerk.
He did have one valid point though:
That sounds like a line of attack that is prime for a lawsuit against the nfl. just needs one nfl player to bring it. Seems essentially a slam-dunk. or am I confused about hipaa and privacy rights?

Thanks for the clarification.Not valid at all.
I'm a Financial Advisor and Insurance Agent. People waive their HIPAA privacy rights all the time in writing in order to get advising physicians statements to underwriters. You sign the waiver in order to get underwritten. You sign the NFL waiver in order to join the NFL.
Got it. Thanks!Not trying to be combative either .Just mentioned that he actually used the word 'honest' before he corrected himself. Basically Iam agreeing with your sentiment that he called BB dishonest in a round about way
Thanks for the clarification.
Spot on. Rule 1, a coach should work within the rules yet give his team as much advantage out of it as possible. Rule 2, shut your pie hole about how you carry out rule 1.
I have no problem with Harbaugh wanting to use the BB injury reporting method. However, there is an intimation that he is virtuous and BB acts improperly.
Harbaugh has long been a punk in my view. I never said it before but I decided to move on.
