Good morning or afternoon, Nation--James her with your Nuggets for the day. Big news coming from the 49ers, QB Shaun Hill will be the starter for the regular season. This is good news to me, I've been for Hill since the end of last season. Well, save for one or two weeks maybe where I thought we could have acquired better quarterbacks, but either way it's what we have and what we're going with and I think it'll work out for the present time. I have a couple links for you, not exactly sure how many but I'm in a slight hurry, so I'll get right to the news. Enjoy.
Shaun Hill has indeed been named the starting quarterback for the '09 season. Good stuff here. (49ers.com)
Here's yesterday's edition of Singletary's Notebook. (49ers.com)
Did the 49ers do Alex Smith a favor yesterday by naming Hill the starter? (PressDemocrat.com)
Here's more on that from another source. (SacBee.com)
Alex Smith will also be out all week with a sprained thumb. (SacBee.com)
OT Adam Snyder was also named the starter at RT. I like the move, but I probably would've liked it better if we took a tackle in the draft or a non-useless one in free agency if there was one. (PressDemocrat.com)
We could have some help on the way as far as pass-rushing is concerned in Ray McDonald. Wouldn't that be great if he came in and suddenly everything just... clicked? Yeah, wont happen. (PressDemocrat.com)
20 Questions with LB Patrick Willis. I'd have some questions for the guy, I'm just afraid that some of them will be "Ow, why are you hitting me?" and "Help, please, this guy is beating my ass!" Well, I suppose the second one is more of a statement. (49ers.com)
Mike Martz (former 49ers OC) will be part of a new show on the NFL Network which breaks down gameplans. It sounded so interesting until I read "Jim Mora." I just cannot stand to watch that guy talk and listen to him at the same time. It makes me want to punch him. Hard. (MercuryNews.com)

19. Superman or Batman?
Superman! Are you kidding me? Never ask me that question again in your whole entire life. I cannot stand Batman. I think Batman’s weak!
It’s 3:30 in the morning and I still LMAO’d!!! Also:
2. If you could go to dinner with any three people, alive or deceased, who would they be?
It’s a mixed group, but it would be with Walter Payton, Denzel Washington, and Rosario Dawson. I think that would be an interesting dinner because I’d like to hear what they all have to say.
No disrespect to Denzel or Rosario, but if I could talk to anyone in the history of the world actors and actresses would be way down on my list. Even a sports legend like Payton would take a backseat to most historical figures for me. It is a very interesting and deep question though, so perhaps Bamm Bamm just thought of a few people off of the top of his head.

He's still young and doesn't know what's important.
The curse of youth.
Me? I’d go with Archimedes, Galileo, and A. Einstein.

If Rosario Dawson was sitting in front of me...
I’d probably forget who else was at the table.
Well, we're waiting....

Don't you think they'd be a little condescending?

Not to mention...
the communication barriers. Also, I hear Einstein wasn’t so big on showering. So there’s that.
My pessimism goes to the point of suspecting the sincerity of the pessimists.

No, Jim Mora
His voice isn’t the easiest on the ears but he has brutally honest opinions that are entertaining.

Ugh.
He’s one of those guys that tries as hard as he can to be “brutally honest” – and ends up spewing inane garbage just for the sake of being blunt.
He’s annoying.

Interesting
I feel you on the Mora problems, but it’s certainly nice to see a show about the game. So many of these other shows are basically Entertainment Tonight for sports *cough*everyshowonESPN*cough*. I want substance!

That’s how I feel when I hear Joe Buck

SO true. If (when) we start winning this year that would mean more of Buck-Aikman. The only downside to NFC success.
You gotta bring ass to get ass.

Mariucci and Martz offer thoughts on Smith
Maiocco has a blog entry up after a conference call with Martz and Mariucci.
Interesting that both men feel Smith still has some potential to succeed in the NFL. Usually at this juncture, the media is all over blasting an organization and calling the player a bust. Maybe it’s only two opinions, but it’s definitely interesting nonetheless.
