Jim Harbaugh and Colin Kaepernick wish Jed York a Happy New Year with some not-so-subtle trolling
Twitter started out so well for Jed York. He was a young, innovative CEO who connected with fans via the social network in ways that screamed, “Hey guys, I’m in my early 30s. I’m hip and with it!” Some fans probably even thought he was “cool” … compared to other NFL owners, anyway … when […]

Kevin Lynch wrote a slideshow piece for SFGate titled “10 reasons not to fire Jim Tomsula and the 49ers coaching staff.” While Tomsula and others in the organization will probably appreciate Lynch’s efforts, the story wasn’t necessary.

2.6K19Levi’s Stadium claims another 49ers power player: Paraag Marathe
According to Matt Maiocco, former 49ers President Paraag Marathe “will continue to manage the 49ers’ salary cap and remain as the team’s top contract negotiator. He is not expected to retain the title of 49ers president, a source said.” It’s not all that difficult to understand why the 49ers would remove Marathe from a high-level […]

Colin Kaepernick’s legacy
What a topsy-turvy career. The first time I saw Colin Kaepernick in person, during a 2011 training camp practice, I thought he looked awful. He couldn’t complete throws to receivers during QB/WR drills, and this was without any defenders around. Alex Smith looked like Joe Montana by comparison. Kaepernick was exciting as hell on late-evening […]

The only way the 49ers will get out of this mess is if someone other than Jed York starts making football hires. The Trent Baalke hire When it was time to replace Scot McCloughan, York made it sound like he’d search far and wide for a new general manager. However, it was obvious to everyone […]

2.0K35Unfortunately for 49ers, “Harbaugh Effect” goes both ways
To say Michigan has improved since last year is a drastic understatement. They’ve completely changed. Last year, Notre Dame handed the Wolverines a 31-0 defeat in their second game, effectively ending Michigan’s hopes of returning to dominance. The 2015 Wolverines have won their last three games (two against ranked opponents) by a combined score of […]

2.0K8Today has not been kind to the 49ers
The 49ers could upset the Giants tomorrow night in East Rutherford, and if that happens everything will change. But today has been a pretty lousy day for a team that’s seen a lot of them over the last several months. Wake up! Not surprising that on a Saturday they’re jackhammering at 7am outside the team […]

1.9K6Kaepernick’s ambiguous “character” comments dredge up more post-Harbaugh nonsense
Colin Kaepernick’s weekly press conference ended with a smile, and this exchange. Head coach Jim Tomsula just said a few minutes ago that you’re not being asked to do anything that you’ve been asked to do previously, in previous years exactly. What do you think he meant by that and what’s your take on what […]
