Well, the season started with a pretty good game. It was very watchable, and I'm definitely excited for this weekend. Another thing I'm very excited for is this is the first year we have the NFL Sunday Ticket, and just going to the channels and seeing all the games upcoming... so awesome, I can't believe I've went this long without it. To be able to never watch a commercial again.. Joyous day. As far as the 49ers are concerned, I didn't keep up with much today but looking around it seems I have a good amount of articles for you. So without further ado (first person to tell me it's adieu is getting the smacketh down) here's some links.

Who will go... ... boo hoo in the end.. 49ers, or Crabtree? It hurt me a lot to type that. (SFGate.com)

So apparently TE Vernon Davis has emerged as a.. leader? I really, at this point, hope the other players don't emulate him.

Here's a bit of a 49ers 2009 preview, though I get the feeling this fan is slightly delusional in his expectations for Alex Smith. It is a very well written piece but I think he needs to stop believing in this kid that is simply done as a 49er. (49ersFancast)
