A bit of a Debbie Downer column, although it’s certainly a reality. The 49ers defeated only one winning team under Singletary and it was a shaky Jets squad.

Lowell Cohn actually made this comparison about the 49ers and their hiring of Singletary:

They are reminiscent of a high school kid with the usual acne who asks a girl he’s not sold on to the prom because he’s insecure and she’s the only one who will talk to him. The Niners seem like that kid, holding on for dear life to Singletary, who has no standing around the league, who was not in demand and who would have waited for them no matter what he said about his pride.

I’m sorry Lowell, but with the firings that have gone down today (Mangini, Crennel and Marinelli so far), does anybody really think the demand for Singletary would have stayed low? Maybe if 49ers brass had waited and lost out I’m sure Cohn would be bitching about that as well.

Sando had some quick thoughts on the hiring of Mike Singletary. He has reserved room for a little bit of skepticism.

I hope you keep up with the links through the offseason, keeps my hunger for Niners news sated. =D

After quarterback Shaun Hill scored on a 2-yard touchdown scramble, Hill tossed the ball to David Baas, per his tradition with the linemen.

"I was really inspired by everybody’s mustaches, so when Shaun threw me the ball I had to spike it as hard as I could in honor of mustache magic," said Baas

mustache magic, hmm do I smell a new catch phrase?

I’ve spent literally two hours today being (site decorum’d) around by Sprint about a 250 dollar activation fee and yeah. I’ll be sure that I update as much as possible throughout the offseason. (I wonder to myself if people come back, don’t see updates, and silently rage at me in their heads. :[ )
