Maybe T.O.'s not too bad

Maybe T.O.'s not too bad

Obviously we all have our issues with Terrell Owens. However, I will certainly give credit where credit is due. After an ESPN writer got hit by a car, TO was the first on the scene keeping an eye on him. Hopefully Sam Alipour is alright.

About 2 weeks to go until Preseason Begins! We can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Vikings refuse to address Packers tampering claims

The Packers are claiming the Vikings had inappropriate communications with Brett Favre. Those NFC North teams certainly do complain a lot about tampering.

Gore: A Historic 49er After 2008

Gore: A Historic 49er After 2008

Scroll down to the 49ers all-time rushers. If Gore runs for as little as 1,000 yards this season, he'll move into fifth ALL-TIME among 49ers rushers, passing - among others - Steve Young AND Kevan Barlow.

The faster Kevan Barlow is off the 49ers top 10 all-time rushers list, the better. On the other hand, Steve Young would have to go off the list first... and that would kind of be a shame.

I think I've written 75 words. Even so, this only deserves to be a fanshot.

I just thought this was funny. It's probably not, though.

Complete Madden 2009 49ers

I'm not exactly sure what system these ratings are for, but I'm assuming it's at least the PS3/XBox360, as there are some "advanced" attributes there. I don't know if the Wii version this season is going to have those same advanced attributes (finally), but I hope so.

SaberCat WR Cleannord Saintil to try out with Niners

SaberCat WR Cleannord Saintil to try out with Niners

As a longtime SaberCat and Niner fan, I'm a little conflicted about this if this is true, not good to lose a starting wideout as the playoffs come near. Can anyone confirm Saintil being invited to tryout with the Niners?

More Trouble in Stoolville

Not that Cedric Benson was going to be a factor this year anyway. Still, enjoy the sweet smell of deserved or undeserved karma, regardless of which it may be.

Balmer to start out at right DE

Balmer to start out at right DE

Sounds like the plan is to start Balmer out at DE and then transition him to NT, hopefully after he puts a little weight on.

Buzz Bissinger (author of Friday Night Lights) absolutely blows up on Will Leith (from Deadspin) on Costas Now. Will has his response on Deadspin today and basically says, Buzz blows himself up with his swearing and commentary.
