Golden Nuggets: Then The Rams Shall Fall!

by James Brady on Dec 27, 2011 2:00 AM PST in 49ers Links

Unfortunately, it looks like our 49ers won't be able to sit everyone against the Rams on Sunday. We'll need starters like Justin Smith, Alex Smith, NaVorro Bowman, Carlos Rogers and Donte Whitner in action. If you couldn't guess, those were the core guys I would have sit for sure, along with, probably, Frank Gore and Joe Staley. The Saints slammed the door on the proposition of immediately sitting starters (once the 49ers get up by a good amount, we can witness some Kaepernaction) by abusing the Falcons from start to finish. It wasn't pretty. Let's get to the linkage for the day, chillldren!

Kaepernaction is a fine word. Kudos, Ninnerjammer.

Love this term

hope it catches on

Win or lose, at the end of the day I'm just happy to see the Niners play well... Okay, winning is good. I prefer winning.

Clinching #2 seed and going 5-1 in division sounds really good.

Catching up from weekend skiing and checked out the Field Gulls reactions. Funniest post had to be the guy talking about how old our team is and we won’t be able to keep this up. Clueless….

You're right

some of those Seahawks fans are clearly delusional.

One could say the same for Pete Carroll. He said that the officials missed an offensive PI on Crabs on his big catch but didn’t mention the gift 3rd down interference they called on T Brown. Pete’s a big time cry baby.

this quote is fun too: “Trade a 2nd rounder and Sherman for Kolb”

I'm really pleased with the last article on Morgan

It’s been awesome seeing him hanging out with his teammates on the sidelines during the games, still cheering them on and giving advice even though he can’t be on the field. He’s a big part of the team and I’m looking forward to seeing him return.
