Golden Nuggets: Thinkin' thats a "no" on Crabtree.

by James Brady on Sep 15, 2009 3:00 AM PDT in 49ers Links

Week one is officially under wraps and wouldn't you know it, it was a genuinely great week of football. Not just for the 49ers and their victory, I just enjoyed every game I watched. I mean, I was disappointed that the Raiders played decent but it was still a good game. Did anyone else feel the entire Buffalo Bills fan base cry out "Not agaaain!" collectively? I sure did. Still, what about the 49ers? I have a couple links for you, though not as much as yesterday. (Totally had a ton yesterday--not one thanks. Pfft.) Some (kind of) news about Michael Crabtree, some more recaps and notes from the game and yeah.. That's about it. Anyway, here's your links.

The 49ers have begun reducing their offer to WR Michael Crabtree. Will this make him sign? No, I doubt it. I personally don't care either. I'm sick of talk about this kid. (PressDemocrat.com)

Veteran CB Walt Harris says he wants to return next season. While not expressly stating he wishes to stay with the Niners, he plans to finish his rehab in Santa Clara. (SacBee.com)

The team definitely will need more from their run game. As I said yesterday, it was borderline abysmal. I expect much more from Frank Gore and much more from the run blockers. (Yahoo.com)

We got our tails kicked up front. At least, that's what Singletary said. I'd use different wording, personally--but then again I'm not talking to the media. If I were to say it, it'd be something along the lines of [entire quote removed for site decorum.] (PressDemocrat.com)

This line put's it nicely: 49ers' 2009 offense: Stubborn, phyical, uncreative... and 1-0. (MercuryNews.com)

How about some fake news? Crabtree is getting nervous. (ProFootballTalk.com)

I love the "fake news" bit

Hope that’s real.

I hope the fact that we won doesn’t excuse the offense’s poor performance either, which is what it sounded like in the Merc article.

James, in your third-from-last link ...

… you surely cannot have had to remove the whole sentence for reasons of site decorum. That would require the entire sentence to have been made up of cuss words. I can well imagine that some of the adjectives would have been a little, well, juicy, and even perhaps the odd conjuctive adverb. But what about the odd sub-ordinating conjunction? Or an auxiliary junction? There must have been something clean in there. I find I am more than a little intrigued.

I can assure you

that nothing in that sentence was clean. It was all filthy, filthy, filthy.

Poor Buffalo

The can’t even earn worst loss of the weekend status due to the Bengals, yet they once again gave away a MNF game for the third year in a row. Dick Jauron is a bad loss magnet.

You gotta bring ass to get ass.
