Hello ladies and gents, long time no see. I've spent the past week on vacation in So Cal, doing as little as possible, but it is nice to get back to the grind that is following what is the best football franchise on the planet. Since it has been a bit, I'm going to ease myself back into writing with something I owe you guys; a Caption This.
The picture to my left is your candidate for the first Caption This of training camp, and boy is it a good one. Summing up the whole QB battle in a nutshell - the struggle for the ball between Shaun Hill and Alex Smith. This is almost too easy, which means I expect some pretty fan-[site decorum]ing-tastic captions for this photo. You know the rules by now, suggest the best caption you have in the comments section of this article. Then, Rec your favorites by clicking action, then Rec. The captions with the most Rec's make the voting round.
The most recent voting round wasn't even close, and here is the winning caption and picture:
"God! I’m so happy you’re not JT!!!!!"
Internet Kudos to foosball4949, for dominating the Caption This voting round. And with that, I officially exorcise the ghosts of the 2008 49ers. No More JTO talk - he's a Bungle now, and not our concern. This is not the same team that missed out on the playoffs last year. This team is prepared to shock the world. This team, gray facemasks and all, will show the NFL that the NFC West is a force to be reckoned with... (OK, that's just my excitement taking it a bit too foar, but nevertheless, I'm just ready for football to start NOW).
Who else can't WAIT for Friday?? CAPTION THIS!!!

Smith: My, what big hands you have… and look how well they hold onto the ball. If only I had hands like these…

I don't think...
… the one on the right is Smith.

In this caption it says it is
Plus, if you look through Smith’s helmet in the bigger picture, you can see the bottom left corner of the 4, which would make that guys number 14 (Huard). Davis is #7 and definitely a tad darker. That only leaves 1 other QB on the team with the number 1 in his jersey, Smith.

Shaun: No Alex, this ball’s mine. Why don’t you try to take Huard’s, we know he won’t need it for long.

I don't know about you...
… Professor, but I think Smith is the one with his back turned to the two fighting for the ball.

SH: No!
AS: Give it!

Sing’s new plan: Hike it to Alex Smith, who hands-off to Shaun Hill, who throws it.
Thus the QB controversy was solved.

In the long-awaited Street Fighter / Madden crossover game, Alex “Dan” Smith can be seen unleashing the dreaded Gadouken attack at close range against Shaun “Ken” Hill. The mini-fireball was somehow intercepted.

First one is likely a tad offensive, but come onnnn, I love Nate Davis.

Due to Crabtree’s revised contract the 49ers had to make some budget cuts in the equipment department. At first, it was not a problem. But tensions eventually arose between Shaun and Alex about who would get to use the sole remaining football.

as a side note...
I feel I need to tell everyone how much of a dumb ass I feel like because our first year head coach just walked by me ( about 20 mins ago ) at a Safeway plaza. And even though the voice in my head was screaming to say “hey coach! good luck this season” and other stuff…. all I could muster was a “holy isht” under my breath. Needless to say, he walked on by and I walked back to my car with my head hung low, disappointed with my self.

You're lucky
Had you spoken to Coach Sing and displeased him than you may have ended up on the wrong side of a vicious tackle.

I’d probably end up in a full body cast. But I’d have a smile on my face and an awesome story to tell for years haha.

Bring it on!
I can’t wait for Michael Robinson to burry his first gunner on the opening kick-off or Frank Gore to Knife through Nolan’s rebuilt defense for a big gain before he calls it a day. I can’t wait for Patrick Willis (should he play) to destroy Moreno as he comes up the gut (ala Adrian Peterson) or Shaun Hill to wear out the Broncos D on an opening 12 play drive. It may not happen this way, but from our team leaders, it’s what i expect (and yes i do see Hill as a team leader and believe that will be the difference in the QB battle). As for the unknown, I would love to see Morgan snare a TD or Goldson a pick to rub in Nolan’s face as if to say “this should be my second year as a starter”. I can go on and on but instead i’ll just say “GO NINERS”!!!

Deemed unfit to carry Shaun Hills jockstrap, Alex Smith took to touching his balls.
by Johnnysixnut on Aug 12, 2009 6:12 AM PDT reply actions 3 recs
Alex Smith:
I can see you are constipated Shaun. Let me help you by touching this ball. We all know I produce POO with a football.
Seriously though, I thought cursing was allowed where appropriate. That must be the McCovey Chronicles. That’s weak. It’s not like our favorite players on our beloved Niners don’t use their “potty mouths”.

Gameday threads are one thing. I think the idea is that if a thread is an “immediate” thread… like one where you’re reacting to a play that JUST happened or a draft pick that JUST happened, we expect that there can’t be as much of a filter.
But in threads where you have time to think about your words before the moment passes, it’s just Fooch’s preference that we take that extra moment and keep things clean.

I know this is a late entry, but I couldn't resist....
Alex Smith: “Remember, this is the ball we’re going to use to nail our ol pal Mike.”
Shaun Hill: “I know, I know. Just gimme it, I wanna go first!”
Alex Smith: “Hey, I’m the one whose career he almost ruined!”
Shaun Hill: “Yeah but he’ll be expecting you to do that. I’m the one with the weak arm remember? He’ll never see it coming!”

edit
Shaun Hill’s last comment should actually say ""Yeah but he’ll be expecting you to do that. I’m the one who’s supposed to have the weak arm remember? He’ll never see it coming!"
