Mooorning, folks. I'm writing this a couple hours early as I have to get plenty of sleep for the game today. I'll be showing up quite a few hours early, as usual, just long enough to actually begin thinking positively for this game. Don't get me wrong, I haven't given up on this team and I don't think I ever will, but I just don't feel so good about this season anymore. Still, as always, I should be yelling until my throat gives out. I want it to be like the Rams game or the Seahawks game, when not only could I not speak but I also found it hard to grip anything--the guys surrounding me give pretty vicious high fives, ya know? On Sunday I didn't get many opportunities to do that, my hand was left un-fived. I'm getting more and more tired so I'm just going to get to your links.

Isaac Bruce wont be suiting up today--but WR Jason Hill will. Bruce allegedly hurt his ankle in practice, but methinks the 49ers just want Hill. (PressDemocrat.com)

I don't really follow how this is getting weird, but I guess it is. I sort of figured confidence was a given before a game? Guess not. (SFGate.com)
