For the “greatest wide receiver of all-time,” the self-acclaimed Randy Moss went from Super Bowl to Super Bummed in a matter of 3.5 days. He is now no longer a Niner.
The San Francisco 49ers have ended the season with an aging Moss, who turns 36 next week.
According to statistics researched by staff writer Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle, Kaepernick heavily favored Michael Crabtree.
A year after the 49ers placed the wide receiver position at the top of their offseason wish list, it appears not much will change this spring. As noted, there are a series of question marks beyond Crabtree, who was targeted 94 times in Kaepernick’s 10 starts, 55 more than any other pass-catcher.
While the patient team will wait on Kyle Williams and Mario Manningham, who currently nurse their knee injuries sustained during the middle of the season, won’t take a gamble on not drafting or signing a solid secondary receiver to complement Crabtree. Randy Moss was wide-open running his post-route wh...

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.

Jim Harbaugh is still complaining about pass interference, he badly wants that to be why the San Francisco 49ers lost the Super Bowl. However, Harbaugh is the microcosm of why the 49ers lost; he still thinks they were the better team.
Instead of blaming his staff and team for failing to score within 5 yards of a touchdown, he’s blaming the referees.

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.

Randy Moss has never been shy to speak his mind when an opportunity presented itself. And if there’s one topic he’s well versed it, it’s wide receivers overcoming personal, off-the-field issues to have Hall of Fame careers. This week, while speaking with Jim Wyatt of The Tennessean, Moss took another opportunity to have his voice heard. This time, he was speaking on another...
