Thanks to Fooch for covering the Golden Nuggets for me yesterday, even if he neglected to include my posts over at SB Nation Bay Area. I'll take that to mean he's itching to eliminate me before I take control of Niners Nation forcibly one of these days. Suffice to say, I've re-doubled my efforts to take this place over and free you all from his dictatorship. That being said, onto some tangible 49ers-related discussion, and as much as I hate to talk about him and give him publicity, Sunday's game really does hinge on Michael Vick, and San Francisco's ability to contain him. It will fall to NaVorro Bowman and Patrick Willis to do it, and as I note in the first link, it will probably mostly be Willis. I like our chances in this game, to be honest. Onto the linkage.
