Hey everyone. I'm incredibly exhausted tonight, so apologies if things seem a bit sloppy. (Said the same thing to the girlfriend a few hours ago.) I have a few articles tonight, nothing major, but a good solid read for your morning or lunch or... whatever. I don't know when you folks read these Nuggets, but I hope that you do indeed read them. I mean, not today because all I'm doing is rambling and... yeah. So, 49ers stuff... really glad the team got Barry Sims to come back. We make a lot of jokes about the guy but he played well at LT last season and I like having him there as a backup... so long as he goes nowhere near the RT position. The guy just forgets how to play football when he plays on that side. So uh, here's some links.
Sims is a solid backup, and brings a veteran presence to what is a young offensive line, especially with the RT that the 49ers will no doubt take in the first round. (Yahoo.com)
He stayed mostly because of the guys in the locker room. Boy wouldn't that be sad if he got cut after training camp? (SacBee.com)
The 49ers were among the 28 teams that voted for the post season overtime rule change. It's still flawed, but I guess it's better. I just don't see why it's not in the regular season as well. I still say a footrace between the teams' punters should decide who wins or gets the initial kickoff. (PressDemocrat.com)

The latest bump in the front office shakes some things up. (SacBee.com)

Uncertainty and chaos are what the 49ers do best? Didn't read this article but it just screams "yeah, OK." to me. (SFGate.com)
The 49ers have put over one million dollars into their pro-stadium campaign. (MercuryNews.com)
