Florio is a fan boy. He makes crap up and talks about it for hours. He doesn't care if it is true. The kid just never got enough attention when he was young. Easy to see why!
Can't believe he has a show.

All true. Florio is a lawyer and Vikings fan.  When he started PFT his schtick was being an asshole.  As he became more popular, he toned things down. He's a reasonably well informed NFL fan with opinions. The difference is he has a platform to amplify and broadcast his opinions. Evidently, he wanted Harbaugh. Lots of Vikings fans did (not me and I'm a Michigan guy). That's it. I guess I don't see what the big deal is.
