Around SBN: Missouri Crashes The Top Line After Kansas Win

Crabtree speaks


Amongst stalled contract talks, Michael Crabtree took a moment to share his feelings today. "This is not about football, this is about M.O.N.E.Y" (note: Crabtree actually said "dot" after each letter) 

"I don't want the 49ers to guarantee that I will be super rich," Crabtree said with smirk, "I think (and everyone who kisses my ass all day) says I deserve to be super-mega rich."  He also referenced his childhood idol, boxing legend Michael Tyson, when he said "(Tyson) blew through way more than $20 million. I want to do that too."

Asked if he is anxious to get on the field, Crabtree replied: "Yeah I like the field, it's green like M.O.N.E.Y"  When asked who should be the starter Shawn Hill or Alex Smith - Crabtree wasn't sure because he didn't know who got paid more.  "Tell me who gets paid more and I tell you who the starter is!"

The interview was ended early because something shiny caught his eye and he had to go refresh the page on his online bank account.

...and if you ask for a link to this interview, that will be funnier than the article.

Never use a big word where a diminutive alternative would suffice.

What we've got here is a failure to communicate.

Context, people. More context is good. Less context is bad. If you're willing to be reductive, then you're willing to be wrong.

it's spelled S.W.A.N. Hill.

I think I’ve seen this dozens of time by now and I’m getting tires of it. People: your fanposts are NOT “articles.” I mean, really.

Context, people. More context is good. Less context is bad. If you're willing to be reductive, then you're willing to be wrong.
