Troy Smith, Watch Your Feet: You Don’t Want to Step on the Leadership
Published on: 8th November, 2010
Because flying to London is just a bit outside of my travel budget, I had to settle for watching the last 49ers "home" game on the tube like the rest of you yabbos. Aside from the hangover I was nursing (it was Sunday morning after all), the fact that I had ...San Francisco 49ers: So Bad They Have Driven Me To Think

Your San Francisco 49ers are in a bind. A season that was supposed to culminate with playoff glory has gotten off to an 0-4 start, thanks to a few costly red zone turnovers, some clueless coaching and a boneheaded fumble last week by cornerback Nate Clements.

While thinking about this awful mess your San Francisco 49ers have gotten themselves into, I absentmindedly started listing off not just their problems, but really, all the things that bother me about sports. I realized something. More than player arrests, more than the steroids, more than guys thinking that giving effort on ...New Orleans Saints: Winning In San Fran Is A Brees When You Get Four Turnovers

SAN FRANCISCO—There’s an old Irish joke that goes something like this—bear with me.

His wife notices he’s wearing different shoes than the ones he left home ...Mike Singletary, Pete Carroll More Alike Than Not

Sunday's opener at Seattle may not look like much of a game compared to other tilts on the schedule like Green Bay at Philadelphia, Dallas at Washington or Cincinnati at New England, especially if your rooting interests are closely aligned with your fantasy team, but for the armchair psychologists among ...2010 Draft Not All That It’s Cracked Up To Be

The NFL Draft has always been a fascinating dichotomy for Joe Football Fan. We spend a whole weekend in April laying about on the couch in rapt attention, listening to analysts prattle on about random college players from obscure outposts from across the country. These "Draft Experts" whose job descriptions when ...49ers Getting Help From Above To Avoid Death From Above

San Francisco head coach Mike Singletary has this curious habit of thanking the big fella (and I don't mean defensive tackle Aubrayo Franklin) every time his team comes out of a game with a win. This weekend however, he might want to thank Her, as in Mother Nature, before ...San Francisco 49ers Need to Make Statement Against Arizona Cardinals

It wasn't supposed to go down this way for coach Mike Singletary and his San Francisco 49ers. Not again. Not for the seventh straight season. He was certain, that after an off-season of roster tweaks, after the hiring an offensive coordinator that he hand-picked, and after guiding his charges through exhaustive minicamps and ...Featured Sponsors
