And the Nuggets are back.  After Sunday's hideous loss, while some may have missed the links, I can't imagine they would have been all that riveting.  When I used to work for the A's, we would get daily links sent to us every day and I almost never read them after losses.  It was just too depressing.

It's safe to say most people can predict what today's links are all about.  A good chunk deal with either the release of Allen Rossum or the concussion issues of Michael Lewis and Jeff Ulbrich.  Yahoo is reporting both Lewis and Ulbrich could potentially be out for the year, with both men having to even contemplate retirement as an option.  We discussed the concussion issue yesterday and everyone can agree that as much as it would stink to lose two solid 49ers, their health definitely comes first.  We'll keep you updated on that.  On to the links.
