Golden Nuggets: And we're back in the saddle

by David Fucillo on Oct 25, 2009 3:00 AM PDT in 49ers Links

Hey everybody...apologies for the relative lack of activity on the front page this weekend. I'm traveling back east through Tuesday so it's been a little bit more work getting posts figured out and up. Given that the team is FINALLY going to play a game (this has been the longest two weeks in a while), I think I'm getting the bye out of my system. But thankfully folks have been plenty active on their own, which is definitely a sign of a great community of readers/commenters.

Either way, we are finally back with a 49ers game day edition of the Golden Nuggets. We didn't have the Nuggets yesterday, so I have added a few Saturday links to go with your Sunday link goodness. It's going to be a bit of an odd game for me this week because of my present location. I'm in Washington, DC and they will not be showing the game on Fox out here (it's Vikings-Steelers). So, needless to say I'll be hunting for "alternative options" for viewing the game. Throw in the fact that I have to wait till 1pm (being in the eastern time zone), and it will make for a unique Sunday for me. Florida Danny will be around today around 7am pacific with a post on the implications of starting 3-0 in the division. We'll follow that up with our game-day thread, which will be going up at 9am pacific. GO NINERS!

Go Niners

This will be the only game this season I miss, but I have a good excuse – I’m leaving shortly for Wembley to take in Pats ‘at’ Bucs. When the NFL is in your town, you gotta go! But I’ll be checking nfl.com for scores and NN for comments during the game. Let’s go San Francisco!

We need this to turn the momentum of our season, against a fairly good team. Let’s see gor with 175 rush yards and 75 rec yards and 2TD, VD 105 yards 1 TD and Crabtree 85 yards 1TD and our defense hold slaton to >50 and schaub >200 with 1 TD. Big predictions llets see it happen !! have fun Fooch in DC and LondonNiner at Wembley. even if you cant watch the game remember: GO NINERS

Ouch! LOL

First off when they said “Third QB Won’t Travel” I had a hard time coming up with who was the 3rd. By that I mean that I forgot Alex. And then checking out the article I see Coach Sing say: “Alex looks fine, but you can bring guys in off the street in practice and they look fine. It’s just a matter of continuing to get better . . . and Alex is getting better.”

Not the most shining of tributes.
