Ahhh. Another Sunday, another day where the 49ers came out ahead. Sitting back on their "improvement week", the 49ers got to see the St. Louis Rams remain winless, the Arizona Cardinals fall short and the Seattle Seahawks put on one half of one of the worst games I've seen in years. 0-6, 1-5, 2-4 ... and we sit atop at 5-1. As a 49ers fan, I still am feeling really nervous. I feel like Jim Harbaugh's hesitance to let his team get overly-confident is rubbing off on me. I respect the teams in our division and a lot of their great players. Anything can happen - but for now, I'm riding a high. Enjoy the links, of which there are few today.
