Around SBN: 2011 In Extreme Home Runs

Golden Nuggets: Steady lads... easy does it

Sorry about that folks, I couldn't think of a title and I happened to be listening to Paul McCartney at the time so... you got lyrics. Still, I suppose with all the negativity and what not going on it still holds true, as per my complaints yesterday about lack of faith. I suppose I can spend another edition of the Nuggets complaining and giving you filler in the form of witty commentary... So I will. Well, maybe less of the wittiness today, I figured I'd share with you all the awesome fact that I am now in possession of a 49ers Snuggie. You know, those blankets with sleeves? With the stupid commercials of entire families wearing them and for some reason the dad thinks it keen to raise the rough like six times in the thirty second spot? Yeah, those things. Man am I embarrassed, I'll admit it... But I have never been more toasty and comfy at the same time. I recommend everybody get one of these and laugh at all who go to bed cold, and laugh even harder at those people who cover up and can't use their hands! Haha!

I can't believe I just ranted on for about a paragraph about a snuggie, pretty sure I'm gonna get fired now. Either way, here's some linkage for your brain. (Note to whoever texted me about Smith earlier, I'd be more than happy to discuss it if you text me again... Accidentally deleted it.)

Singletary apologizes to QB Alex Smith on some of his criticisms he threw Smith's way after the game against the Eagles. I imagine he had to apologize for a lot of bad language. I have a feeling if I talked to him I'd need to apologize afterward, too. (SFGate.com)

The 49ers released DT Baraka Atkins... Forgot we even signed him. Still, awesome name. I suppose that's something. (49ers.com)

The team now has an open roster spot to sign a kicker, what with Nedney being injured right now. (SacBee.com)

Sando at ESPN's NFC West blog has a video spot concerning the division. (ESPN.com)

Star-divide

A look ahead at the upcoming matchup with the Detroit Lions. The 49ers better win this game. That's all I have to say. (49ers.com)

Yeah, I can't imagine the team prefers Oakland either. That's just too bizarre, honestly. (NBCBayArea.com)

I just don't think I want to go to a 49ers game in Oakland. Heck, I can't even imagine going to a 49ers game in Santa Clara. I absolutely love San Francisco and Candlestick Park. This was the first year I had season tickets but I won't get them ever in an Oakland Stadium. I like the home field in San Francisco. (SFGate.com)

It makes the most sense for the 49ers to stick with what they've got at coach and GM. Continuity is the key. (SFGate.com)

Seven seasons without playoffs sucks. Hope to finish 8-8 at the very least though, right? (Yahoo.com)

Kicker situation

So nedney is hurt. Who’s available? I think folk is but then again he’s been sorry as of late. Maybe we should just give double duty for Andy Lee make him kicker/punter. Save us some money lol.

Folk is pretty much hurt.

You can never resist the game... nor could I... we're the same, so don't even try.

um

i like how this article refers to the 9ers finishing at .500 for the 1st time since 02 as a “non-losing season” what a joke.

As for the record...

8-8 will be the best finish San Francisco has had since Mooch was fired in 2002. Dennis Erickson’s first season went 7-9, albeit with two games lost in OT. You know the story afterwards.

by sigma on Dec 23, 2009 11:25 AM PST reply actions  

For the first year...

or the second year? It would have taken more than a kicker to save Erickson: Season Two.

by sigma on Dec 23, 2009 12:38 PM PST up reply actions  

First year

All three division road losses due to poor FG kicker. Otherwise that team matches the record of Mooch’s last season (10-6), makes the playoffs and perhaps does not purge Garcia, Hearst, Deese, etc.

You gotta bring ass to get ass.

by SpurredOn on Dec 23, 2009 12:46 PM PST up reply actions  

If I remember correctly...

That purge was for “salary cap issues.” Yes, you can stop snickering now because we all know that John York was just trying to be as cheap as possible. This was evidenced in his “no free agency ever” mandate that he handed down just after the purge.

Nobody is addressing the snuggie issue?

Don’t you live in the Bay area Ninjames?

I’m sure it doesn’t get cold enough to even frost up your windows in the morning.

Yes Drew K, Tim Tebow will get picked in the first round.

snuggle

I’m guessing it’s more of an awkward silence about it.

But I will say it’s been really cold in the Bay Area

by David Fucillo on Dec 23, 2009 12:50 PM PST up reply actions  

Nah, I live in central cali, closer to no cal.

But I didn’t buy it. My dad brought it by the other day and I will not refuse delicious comfort when I go to sleep.

Have A Happy Lose Year~!

We here of the bay area kind, do believe in the seasons of woefulness. Each and every year we come to watch the walls of expectations collapse all around us. Whether it be the Giants or the Niners, the Warriors or the A’s, and least but not last the Raiders, all fall on their collective arses, down here by the bay. Shark attacks too, all of them woeful, all of them, and their winnings too few. But this time next year yippeekiaaaa we’ll all remember last year, and drink are troubles away. Happy Happy!~
