I'll take a stab at today's DLD...

The 49ers will pay tribute to Bill Walsh by wearing 1980's style jerseys in their opening game Monday night September 10th vs. the Arizona Cardinals. Walsh tribute planned

Also in the above link it looks like Gore is seeing some action in camp as he got fitted with a cast.

Gore ready to practice: Running back Frank Gore had his broken right hand placed in a cast Monday. He took some handoffs in the afternoon's no-pads practice and probably will be more involved in this morning's session, although he will not be subjected to contact. Gore probably will play in the last exhibition game at San Diego on Aug. 30.

Mike Nolan is concerned that Davis will cost the team with 15 yard penalties due to the emotion he displays on the field. I hate the NFL has turned any sort of celebrating into a 15 yard penalty. They truly deserve the term NO FUN LEAGUE Nolan concerned

"He is so passionate, so emotional about things," Nolan said of Davis. "The officials are going to have a tendency to throw a flag on it, because they think it's taunting. A guy that's as emotional as he is ... has to be very careful."

This is a FanPost and does not necessarily reflect the views of Niners Nation's writers or editors. It does reflect the views of this particular fan though, which is as important as the views of Niners Nation's writers or editors.

In one of the weirder

analogies I've seen, the chron's John Crumpacker said that "one of Mike Nolan's jobs as head coach is to monitor Davis' emotional state, much as an investor checks the vicissitudes of the stock market from day to day."

I'm... not sure that's the most apt simile in the world.

What's that you say? "Indeed, Nolan made a huge investment in Davis when he annointed him the 49ers top draft pick in 2006."

Oh. OH! It's all coming together now. I see what you did there.

But I'm still... just not sure that's the most apt simile in the world. Talk about a stretch.
