Your long nightmare is over Niners fans?? or is it?

That's right, write down the date and time, the 49ers team management have finally made a smart move, and if I'm recalling correctly, ONLY smart move since Dr York took control of the once storied franchise by the bay. They've relieved Alex Smith, a top candidate for worst draft pick of all time, from his starting duties at QB. That's the end of the good move...

May I Introduce....

Our 2008 San Francisco 49er Starting Quarterback, J.T. O'Sullivan, yes that's right people you read this right I did type "starting qb". J.T. took the long way to get to the San Francisco Bay Area to end up trying to right a ship that, like the Titanic, hit a snag and pretty much went down. What I find really very odd is that J.T. was born in Burbank, CA, went...

Fantasy Football Mock Draft - #9 Frank Gore (and Mike Martz)

Frank Gore should immediately call Mike Martz and thank him for benching the worst starting QB in the NFL (Alex Smith) for JT O'Sullivan. That is the lone reason that I am drafting the uber-talented Gore?. because with Alex Smith at the helm, his talent is wasted in a big, dangerous way.

Niners Trade Rattay (QB) to Bucs

Well, it appears Alex Smith is going to have to be "the guy" for the 49ers. Yesterday (Tuesday) SF traded former starting QB Tim Rattay to the Buccaneers for an undisclosed draft pick. Although Rattay has a few years of starting QB experience--and was actually halfway decent last year when he wasn...

Pictures of Alex Smith and Mike Nolan In Happier Times

Mike Nolan gave Alex Smith tickets to a MMA show one year ago. Pictures of them in happier times.

O’Sullivan Finally Gets the Call to Start for Niners

Mike Nolan has been almost annoyingly objective when it has come to evaluating the starting quarterback position. He has tried to express fairness in determining which of three QBs ? Alex Smith, Shaun Hill or J.T. O'Sullivan ? will lead the offense in Week 1. Now, though, it seems Nolan could be coming to a conclusion of who is guy will be. O'Sullivan will get the start against...

Gimmick offense??

by Brian P. Foley, The College Baseball BlogI was watching the Texas vs Texas Tech game over the weekend when I recognized that Graham Harrell has no chance of making the NFL because he plays in a gimmick offense. Is this really true though?Texas Tech runs an offense that has thrown the ball over 45 times this year in seven out of the nine games that the Red Raiders have played....

Who's Worse Off? Aaron Rodgers Or Alex Smith?

Aaron Rodgers and Alex Smith were both taken in the 1st round of the 2005 NFL draft. For the last three years each man has traveled a very different journey, yet they find themselves in the exact same place…. Knee deep in sh-t.

Cardinals should take a cue from the Niners

Today in San Francisco, 49ers head coach Mike Nolan made the announcement that J.T. O'Sullivan would be the starting QB for the season opener against the Cardinals on September 7th. Translation…Alex Smith, the number one overall draft pick out of Utah in 2005, and the owner of a 6-year, $49 million c

Larry Allen Will Toughen San Francisco's Offense

Getting Larry Allen from the Dallas Cowboys adds more than his 325 pounds to the 49ers offensive line. He's got a mean streak, or at least he plays like he does. Now if Jonas Jennings and Jeremy Newberry could be healthy all season...QB Alex Smith would certainly enjoy that, and fans would too!

Tuesday FourCast: Week 7

Week 7 came and week 7 went. Some things returned to "normal," such as the Giants winning. Other things went even more haywire than before, such as the Cowboys self-imploding (or is that self-bloweding up, Emmitt?) even further. An eloquent sports writer would delve into such complicated matters. Unfortunately, you're stuck with me this week. On with the countdown...
