49ers Trying To Keep QB Alex Smith From The Cardinals?

PLAYERS: Alex Smith,  John Clayton
TEAMS: San Francisco 49ers,  Cleveland Browns

The 49ers have no plans to keep Alex Smith, but before they're forced to cut ties with the first-overall pick in the 2005 draft, they'd gladly listen to trade offers. The thinking is twofold: first, it would be nice to get something for the former starter. Second, the 49ers would have some say in where Smith ended up, which wouldn't be the case if he became a free agent. If the latter does happen, ESPN's John Clayton has a theory on how things could play out. "…I would have to think that if (Smith is) released, he'll make a beeline to Arizona and compete against the 49ers two times a year for the next several years," Clayton said during an appearance Thursday on Arizona Sports 620 (via ArizonaSports.com). "Knowing that the 49ers probably don't want (Smith to go to a division foe)," Clayton continued, "the best thing to do is hang on to him and see if you can trade him to an AFC team, maybe the Cleveland Browns -- I think the Browns would be the most interested."

Colin Kaepernick's new hot model girlfriend J Marie

Word on the street is that San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick has a new model girlfriend named J Marie.  Clearly this is a modeling name, but we are determined to find out who this chick really is.  For now all we know is that she is an Asian bikini and glamour model.  That's good enough for me.  Check out her hottest pics in the gallery below. ...

49ers Coach Jim Harbaugh: An Insufferable Douche Bag

When on the MTRRadio.com Super Bowl Pregame show I heard radio personality James Flippin call the 49ers coach “An Insufferable Douche Bag”.  At the time I thought it was a little harsh but not having any skin in the Super Bowl, I let it go thinking he was just over overstating his dislike a bit? A week later I realized that he was spot on. Super Bowl Winning Head Coach JOHN...

The 2012 season is over for the San Francisco 49ers, and now we look onto the potential 2013 San Francisco 49ers roster changes. The 49ers will be potentially saying goodbye to 15 players who hit free agency in 2013. The number 1 player the 49ers have to lock down in 2013 is Dashon Goldson. The 49ers tried to get a contract extension done in 2012, but the talks fell apart. Now Goldson...

The Pros and Cons for Alex Smith

Via Buffalo Wins  |  February 07, 2013
Small hands and game manager. That's all I think of when Alex Smith comes to mind. I don't exactly think those two traits are compliments. The small hands stuff comes from Tony Kornheiser, who used to say that and it added to his fumbling problem early in his career. The poor guy fumbled 15 times during the first three years of his career, 9 of them coming his rookie...

49ers Coach Jim Harbaugh Says A 'Penalty Is A Penalty No Matter When It Occurs'

Via GridironFans.com  |  February 07, 2013
Given his inability to keep a straight face, Jim Harbaugh must be a horrible poker player. So it was hardly surprising when the 49ers coach told the media shortly after the Ravens' 34-31 Super Bowl win that he thought the officials missed a pass interference call on wide receiver Michael Crabtree that would've given the 49ers a first-and-goal with 1:50 to go in the game....
