The 49ers Really Don't Trust Colin Kaepernick
What’s wrong with the San Francisco 49ers’ offense (besides everything)? It is, as we are learning, incredibly predictable. And that is apparently by design....
Colin Kaepernick Donked A Guy Right In The Face
Somehow, this was a matchup of teams with identical records. But the Seahawks’ 20-3 win over the 49ers felt like so many of the blowouts in the recent one-sided stretch of the Seattle-San Francisco rivalry. The only things that set this one apart were the Niners’ especially unproductive offense, the...
The 49ers' Crappy Turf Helped Shank A Ravens Field Goal
Justin Tucker is one of the best kickers in the NFL. Even he’s no match for the grass at Levi’s Stadium, which in just its second year has emerged among the league’s worst. ...
49ers Fan Ran Onto Field, Allegedly Tried To Headbutt And Spit At Security
Obviously, don’t charge onto the field. It disrupts the game, and you’re going to get hit with trespassing and a lifetime ban. But if you charge onto the field, definitely don’t try to assault the security members who drag you out. They’re not going to let that one go. ...
Clay Matthews Kept Picking On Colin Kaepernick
The photo above was taken during yesterday’s Packers-49ers game, right after Packers linebacker Clay Matthews sacked 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick in the third quarter. That’s Matthews stealing Kaepernick’s signature bicep-kiss celebration, which is a pretty good way to troll a quarterback afte...
The Biggest NFL Story Today Is Whether Jim Tomsula Farted At A Press Conference
After a feel-good win against the Vikings in Week 1, the 49ers have reverted to the complete mess we knew they’d be, but ignore that for a minute. Did head coach Jim Tomsula fart during yesterday’s press conference? Listen for yourself:...
City Council To Consider Banning Second-Half Alcohol Sales At 49ers Games
49ers fans can’t seem to go a week without involving themselves in an ugly brawl, and the Santa Clara city council is starting to get a little fed up. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, two council members have suggested the institution of a second-half booze ban at the stadium....
Carlos Hyde Has Magic Knees
Just moments after taking the above knee-twisting hit, Carlos Hyde returned to the game and caught a pass for a first down. How? (Stay tuned for updates if it starts bothering the 49ers running back.)...
Cops Arrest Four From 49ers Stadium Parking Lot Fight
Yesterday, the Santa Clara Police Department announced that they had arrested four people, three men and one woman, for felony assault for Monday’s parking lot beating at Levi’s Stadium, where a handful of 49ers fans kicked around a Vikings fan in an Antoine Winfield jersey. ...
The Procrastinator’s Guide To iOS 9
iOS 9 came out this week, and you might want to put it on your phone, or figure out what the hell you get by installing this thing. This is a guide for those who care, but only barely....
Kevin From <i>The League</i> Admits He Made Up Story About Narrowly Escaping 9/11
Steve Rannazzisi, whom you may know from The League, those Buffalo Wild Wing commercials, or—well, just those two things—has an old chestnut he’s always used to explain how he got into comedy: the Long Island-born actor cites 9/11 as the impetus for his move to Los Angeles. Rannazzisi says he was wo...
Video Shows 49ers Fans Beating Vikings Fan In Parking Lot
A video uploaded by Brandon Cosio after Monday night’s Vikings-49ers game appears to show a group of 49ers fans kicking and punching a Vikings fan in an Antoine Winfield jersey in a parking lot outside of Levi’s Stadium. As a warning, the video’s rough to watch....
Jim Tomsula Should Be Your Favorite Coach
We made a lot of jokes at Jim Tomsula’s expense after the 49ers tabbed him as their new head coach, because he exudes an appearance that screams “cautionary tale,” (or perhaps “hardware salesman”) but here’s the truth: the man’s undefeated. With his win as an interim coach in 2010, and last night’s ...
Australian Sportswriter Liveblogs 49ers Game, Discovers Just How Dumb Football Can Be
People in Australia are understandably excited about Jarryd Hayne, a former Australian rugby star who earned himself a roster spot on the San Francisco 49ers. Given that last night was his NFL debut, the Guardian had Australian sportswriter Matt Cleary liveblog the game for the folks in Hayne’s home...
Remember When A Chelsea Player Waggled His Dick At Stranded Americans The Day After 9/11?
When the first plane hit the north tower of the World Trade Center, it was 1:45 p.m. in London; preparations were well underway across Europe for the eight Champions League matches set to kick off later in the day. The matches went ahead, but the next day UEFA postponed the week’s remaining eight Ch...
Why Is ESPN Doing George W. Bush's Dirty Work For Him?
The ill-conceived remembrance is by now as much a 9/11 anniversary tradition as the insensitively branded 9/11 memorial tweet, but even by the degraded standards of the remember-when genre, today’s contributions by ESPN and Grantland are really out there....
911 Recording: Browns Coach Andy Moeller's Fiancée Claims He "Tried To Strangle Me And Beat Me Up"
TMZ acquired the 911 call made by the woman involved in Browns offensive line coach Andy Moeller’s alleged assault over the weekend. The victim tells the operator that Moeller attempted to strangle and beat her, and also says she’s engaged to Moeller before adding, “not anymore, though.”...
Jarryd Hayne Ruined A Cornerback's Night
Despite a 49ers offseason that featured chaos, abrupt retirements, and the installation of a retired barstool as head coach, there is at least one nice story on the team: Jarryd Hayne. The 27-year-old former rugby league player played well enough in the preseason to merit serious consideration for a...
49ers LB Ahmad Brooks Charged With Sexual Battery, Ray McDonald Indicted For Rape
Santa Clara County prosecutors announced today that they had charged 49ers linebacker Ahmad Brooks with sexual battery, while a grand jury handed down a rape indictment against former 49ers defensive end Ray McDonald....
