Ray McDonald Arrested for Outstanding Warrant

Seems this offseason message should have been, ‘Don’t get arrested.’ For the second time this year a 49er has been sent to jail. This time Ray McDonald was arrested for an outstanding warrant stemming from a 2010 arrest for driving under the influence. Since this is McDonald’s second arrest, he faces punishment from the NFL as a repeat offender of league policies…

Perspective

I read the following article from a friend of mine and I thought I’d share it with others. It is a nice read on how most of us felt after the gut wrenching loss against the Giants. If you wish to read more from Brandon check out his site. Sports are littered with cliches. The one burning a hole in my brain right now is “the joy of victory/the agony of defeat.” I hate cliches...

Here is what Rogers said when asked: “My preference is to be back. Like I said, for four or five (years) I want to be back. Like I said, I’m going to leave that to my agent’s hands. He just got through talking...

Hats off to the 49ers…

This loss still hurts. I’ve had a little time to put aside the ill will I have towards Kyle Williams. So I just wanted to write a quick post about how great this season was. 14-4, hosted the NFC Championship game. Made it one score away from the Super Bowl and all of this done with a rookie head coach with no offseason, a quarterback almost everyone labeled a bust, and other...

I Blame You Kyle Williams

The 49ers fell one game short of playing the Patriots in the Super Bowl. Wait let me rephrase that, Kyle Williams muffed two punts to keep the 49ers from going to play the Patriots in the Super Bowl. Kyle Williams this seasons Roger Craig. I know some out there will say playcalling, some poor offensive play, referees, 3rd down conversions, etc. Yes I can agree with that. Alex Smith...

How to Beat The Giants

After a spectacular win last Saturday over the favored New Orleans Saints, the San Francisco 49ers are just one game away from reaching the Super Bowl. In their way stand the New York Giants, fresh off an improbable win of their own.  The Giants are probably the hottest team in the playoffs right now, emulating what the Green Bay Packers had to do last year to win.  However, the...

Who’s Got It Better

The 49ers showed they belong in the conversation with the best teams in the league with a thrilling 36-32 victory yesterday. Some might even call the game a shootout, which barely anyone would expect the 49ers to be able to even manage, let alone pull out a victory against New Orleans. The Saints have one of the highest powered, explosive offenses the NFL has ever seen. Quarterback...

Welcome Back Playoffs

Saturday at 4:30 EST marks the 49ers first playoff game in 10 years and I’ve been paying my dues at sports bars across the United States waiting for it. I watched them bottom out at 2-14, draft a QB #1 overall who wasn’t named Aaron Rodgers, wade through offensive coordinators like selections at the Golden Corral buffet, grimace as that #1 QB struggled to get on the right side...
