Golden Nuggets: Brian Jennings For Life

by James Brady on Feb 22, 2012 2:00 AM PST in 49ers Links

Good morning folks, and thanks to Fooch. for covering the Nuggets yesterday, as I was having some internet troubles. Hopefully in the next couple of weeks I'll be able to get back to fuller, more comprehensive Nuggets. I just don't have the time lately, but I'm going to get to your links all the same. Of particular note is the fact that the 49ers brought in another long snapper for competition. Kind of odd, considering this particular long snapper has been responsible for multiple team losses. I'm just worried that the 49ers are going to give him the nod over Brian Jennings because Brad Seely is familiar with him. Who knows? Let's get to the links.

None of that made sense.

I guess less people go on during the offseason

Is what he is trying to say. But don’t worry NJ you won’t get rid of me.

I just think he's suggesting that less comments means less views. I mean, obviously there's less because it's the offseason.

But we get thousands upon thousands of people that view and don’t comment. Just like every other site.

What i mean is i’d like to have a graphic that shows how many views the website has. It must have been crazy high between the NO and NY games, then very low, and i guess it’s beginning to go up again.
I come here everyday (via RSS or directly the website) but since there isn’t a ton of comment, there must be less viewers.

Sorry, english isn’t my mother tongue, i’m sure sometimes i don’t make sense. Just so you know it makes perfect sense inf French (when you translate word by word :s )

I'm here Everyday

I don’t post much and I’m not up to speed on the draft prospects. I like to read what those that are up on college and draft picks though. So I read what everyone is saying as it pertains to the Niners. Just because we are quiet does not mean we are not here.

Love all the work that these guys do and want to give all the writers a shout out and a thanks for this wonderful site.

Jennings has always been the best in the biz!

I hope he stays for his career here. Competition is always good, maybe the other guy has some other type of assets he brings. In Harbs and Baalke we trust.

Jennings for life!

It’s ridiculous to think the team would replace Jennings. I have to imagine that them ‘agreeing to terms’ with this other guy is like them bringing in Fabrio Scaccia or whoever that other placekicker was in training camp for a week, just to give some competition.
