Morning folks, Ninjames here. We've got a lot of good posts for you today at Niners Nation so be sure to make the jump and check out what we've got going on and when you should be around. As far as 49ers links go, not a lot has been going on in 49erland but the beat writers have been putting out some pieces on a semi-regular basis so I've got a few for you. Post up anything I miss in the comments. I absolutely love that the Raiders are talking about a possible future Super Bowl being hosted in Oakland. So I've got a bit about that later on today, it's seriously... hilarious to me. Just funny. Very funny. Anyway, I've rambled on about nothing for long enough. Enjoy the links everyone.
