Golden Nuggets: And I'm Spent!
Good morning folks, James here checking in for your Nuggets. Its rather late right now as I'm doing this article before bed rather than when I wake up seeing as how its 2:30 in the morning and I'm not the least bit tired. I've been watchin tape on the rookies for oh.. about two hours now, there's some really good stuff. I mean, I cant find tape for a lot of them but mostly seeing Crabtree in action is enough. As far as college football goes, I know my stuff but of couse I cant say I see every game.. this guy makes it happen, he fights for everything, but you should probably already know that. Either way, hoping on a lot of links oday but no promises, folks! Enjoy what I've got for ya.

I'll post this one last time, a link to all the Niners Nation coverage of the draft, nicely compiled. (NinersNation.com)

All I can seem to find these days are bloggers that really have no idea what they're talking about. Sure, he could bust, but everyone in the [site decorum] draft could bust. Oh and, pretty funny he admonishes the very thought of determining a wide receivers game situation speed by watching game footage. Priceless. (NBCBayArea.com)

I particularly love how that blogger pointed to Crabtree’s love for clothes and fashion as a sure sing he’ll be a diva/team disruption. I mean its not like an old school non-diva/disruption like Jerry Rice would have be meticulous about his appearance/clothes/uniform like that, right? That looked to me like someone had to crank out one more draft article about 3 minutes before their deadline. …."lets see who is a really high profile guy I can take a less than obvious approach too without having to do a lick of research…hmmm….Stafford and Sanchez have been over dissected already, nobody cares about linemen….can’t really defend the Raiders pick…..Crabtree sucks! "
Thing A
money quote from that "freelance writer"
That’s some great analysis, coach! Who does your due diligence, Bernie Madoff?
here’s a guy who most likely has not watched one second of coach’s film on crabtree, has not talked to him personally, has not quizzed him on his football knowledge, has not run a foot race against him, and generally has zero credentials as a talent evaluator, yet he’s criticizing an NFL coach — one who’s a hall of fame player no less — for his analysis of crabtree and questions whether that coach has done his “due diligence” when researching crabtree.
let’s see, who should we trust in talent evaluation? a “freelance writer” or an NFL coach/hall of fame player?
another money quote is
Feet requiring surgically-implanted screws are often a bad omen for a young professional athlete.
says who? do you have any evidence for that mr. “freelance writer?” can you give even one example of a player doomed by this “omen?”

Hall of fame WR Chris Carter
“I had the same injury when I was a rookie and I was fine.”
Of course that’s resident nobody Chris Carter, and not wisecracking contributing freelancer of NBC Bay area.com/sports Joe Kukura so what does he know.
McLouth is The Trouth
so some dork dressed up as Mike Nolan
for Halloween last year and just now decided to send it into uni-watch, check it out, it’s in the ticker.
"I'll be honest with you, I love his music, I do, I'm a Michael Bolton fan. For my money, I don't know if it gets any better than when he sings "When a Man Loves a Woman"
Hmm.
That dork, I believe, is NN’s resident photoshoper.
oh I know
i actually remember when he posted that pic. just thought it was a funny find on my daily trip to Uni-Watch.
"I'll be honest with you, I love his music, I do, I'm a Michael Bolton fan. For my money, I don't know if it gets any better than when he sings "When a Man Loves a Woman"
thanks for finding that link too.
for some reason I couldn’t find it
"I'll be honest with you, I love his music, I do, I'm a Michael Bolton fan. For my money, I don't know if it gets any better than when he sings "When a Man Loves a Woman"
The search feature...
… defaulted to “stories” for me, and I had to click over the “fan posts” when I searched for “halloween.”
Ah.
I should have known better, considering you’ve been posting here long enough.
also wjackalope
hope you took no offense by the dork remark. I actually thought it was a pretty clever and well put together costume. It was also hilarious at the time since Nolan just got fired. Why did you decide to send it into uni-watch now?
"I'll be honest with you, I love his music, I do, I'm a Michael Bolton fan. For my money, I don't know if it gets any better than when he sings "When a Man Loves a Woman"
just never got around to it before
and I was already emailing him about the new unis so I figured why not
Still defending Rich Aurilia, and the Niners' classic unis
