NFL Agent Arrested In Bizarre Murder-For-Hire Plot
The arrest of California State Senator Leland Yee contains details that make it so much more than your typical San Francisco corruption scandal.

Damon Bruce Was Banned From The Giants' Clubhouse For Taking Creepshots
We haven't heard much from former KNBR radio host Damon Bruce since he went on a dick-twirling rant during one of his shows. But Bruce's recent move from KNBR to 95.7 The Game elicited a column from the Press Democrat's Lowell Cohn, in which he dishes some serious dirt on Bruce....

The 49ers Traded For A Historically Awful Quarterback
Sure, you know that Blaine Gabbert had a very bad season last year. But just for anyone who managed to forget, he was unbelievably bad, doing more damage to his team in just three games than anyone else managed in a full season. ...
Barry Bonds Says He Should Be In The Hall Of Fame "Without A Doubt"
Barry Bonds showed up at camp today, and put on a Giants uniform for the first time in seven years. At age 49, he looked good—smaller than in his playing days, but nothing that would be embarrassing if he were in spring training to play. He's here to teach. And he was immediately asked about PEDs....
Tiny Person Tim Lincecum And Large Person Kameron Loe Traded Uniforms
Here's some fun spring training shenanigans courtesy of the San Francisco Giants, who understand that people wearing comically ill-fitting clothes is always funny. Tim Lincecum, who is just 5-foot-11, traded uniforms with Kameron Loe, who is 6-foot-8. Much fun was had....
Jim Harbaugh Never Takes Off His Jim Harbaugh Uniform
This is Jim Harbaugh, giving a pep talk to the Kansas Jayhawks before their game against Texas Tech, decked out in full Jim Harbaugh regalia. He's got the $8 khakis, the hat, and the sweatshirt. The only thing he's missing is the Sharpie necklace....
So What If Everyone Hates Jim Harbaugh?
It's sort of remarkable that for the 49ers, who have made three straight trips to at least the conference championship game, the inevitable storyline of this season will be "everybody hates the coach." But here we are....
Which KNBR Employee Is Downloading Huge Amounts Of Porn At Work?
A tipster just sent us a picture of the above sign, which was recently posted in the KNBR sports radio studio in San Francisco. That's the same radio station that employs Damon Bruce, and is essentially the west coast's answer to WEEI. So, really, it's not all that surprising that such a warning nee...
Has Jim Harbaugh Worn Out His Welcome In San Francisco?
As more non-denials come out, it appears the Browns did make some attempt to trade for 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh. There's enough smoke to assume that something was at least smoldering. But much more interesting than the "what" is the "why," and the growing sense that all is not well in Ninerland....
San Francisco 49ers CEO Sons Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio
Earlier today, Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio ran a sort of weird story about the Cleveland Browns having nearly traded for San Francisco 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh....

There Is A Lone 49ers Fan At The Seahawks Parade
Twitter user "49er 4 Life" is sending out photos of a man decked out in full Niners gear wandering the Seahawks parade route today. I wouldn't call him "brave," since Seattle is a city of chillbros, but he's certainly unafraid to rep the defending wild card champions so close to the Lombardi Trophy....

Richard Sherman And The Plight Of The Conquering Negro
Last night in the NFC championship, the San Francisco 49ers trailed the Seattle Seahawks by six, 23-17, with 30 seconds left in the game. Quarterback Colin Kaepernick had led the 49ers all the way down to the Seahawks' 18-yard line. He took the snap out of the gun, set his feet, and released a floss...
NaVorro Bowman Had Popcorn Spilled On Him As He Was Carted Off
When NaVorro Bowman was carted off with a torn ACL, NFL.com's Gregg Rosenthal tweeted that "Seahawks fans threw food at "Bowman". That sounded very, very bad, especially for a fan base that loves to self-proclaim itself the best in football. But here's the footage, and it's...probably just one jerk?...
