49ers exodus: Who’ll retire next?
Welp. pic.twitter.com/e8hBwFclbj — Niners Nation (@NinersNation) June 5, 2015 That was posted by my buddy David Fucillo after the latest retirement, a somewhat surprising departure from the NFL and the 49ers by right tackle Anthony Davis. It’s becoming old hat, this retirement thing. We expected Justin Smith to hang ’em up, and Patrick Willis wasn’t […]

3.2K1949ers free agents: who should stay and who should go
Many have said that the 49ers’ only saving grace in the upcoming season is their talented roster. This argument makes sense if you ignore the talent and corresponding roster on the 2010 squad, but insert a picture of Kermit sipping tea here. The 49ers are right up against the salary cap this season ($1.348M in […]

4.1K17Jim Harbaugh and the 49ers: a love story
All’s well in the land of Harbaugh. In fact, love is in the air. Post by San Francisco 49ers. “I love coach Harbaugh,” said Colin Kaepernick after the 49ers’ 22-17 win over the Chiefs. “I’d go to war with him any day of the week. He’s a competitor, he wants to win and he’s going to […]

3.4KAnthony Davis still not practicing, but is Jonathan Martin a lock to start?
Every instinct is telling me not to write this. But that usually makes writing something more fun, so what the hell. Let’s grab some potato sacks and take a ride on the giant county fair slide of speculation, shall we? Anthony “Bam” Davis didn’t practice for the third straight day, due to a hamstring strain. He barely practiced throughout the offseason, […]

3.0K4It’s easy to see how Jonathan Martin could’ve been an outcast in Miami
Newly acquired offensive lineman Jonathan Martin said all the right things about his football career in a Thursday evening introductory conference call.

The San Francisco 49ers didn’t make it to the Super Bowl. They got real close. Didn’t happen. They had eight Pro Bowlers. No one cares about the Pro Bowl. I only paid attention to the very end of the Pro Bowl draft so I could laugh when Alex Smith was drafted/assigned last (to team Jerry […]

5.3K16GIFs: some of the best plays (and no-calls) from 49ers vs. Packers
No one who watched yesterday’s game in Green Bay will forget what they saw, but I felt sorry for Liz (my wife) because she barely got to see anything at all. She had to fly to Las Vegas for work, and left our apartment at 1 pm. That left me and our dog alone to […]
