Random 49ers Roster Facts and Figures

I'm sitting here in Seattle at Sea-Tac International Airport waiting for my shuttle bus and I thought I'd roll out a random post for you.  Well first, normally I'm a fan of San Francisco International Airport.  It's nice looking, easy to get to on BART, and all around an ok experience.  My problem with them is their lack of Internet, or more specifically, FREE Internet.  I don't travel a ton, but SFO is on a short list of airports without free wifi.  The ones that do have it?  Las Vegas, Portland, OR, Oakland (as I found out today) and Seattle (actually only free until January 15 in a holiday deal with Google, but it's free while I'm here, so there!).  Anyways, SFO needs to get with the program.  The good news is I've been able to get some posts schedule in case I have any Internet issues over Thanksgiving.

For now though, I was putting together the Prospector's Guide for tomorrow, which is culled from the weekly game release the 49ers send out.  It includes a whole bunch of random information on every random topic you can imagine.  I might try to upload them to the site at some point for folks to check out if they're bored.  But I noticed something today I had missed in the past.  A small little part with roster facts and figures.  I know some folks like to blow friends away (or possibly scare them) with their amazing 49ers knowledge.  So, here are some random facts and figures about your 2009 San Francisco 49ers.
