Buy Jim Harbaugh's Used Khakis
They aren't $8 Walmart khakis, so that totally makes it reasonable to want Jim Harbaugh's game-worn khakis. (The pants are priced at $500, according to Lindsey.)...
This Is The Best Thing Seahawks And 49ers Fans Have Ever Done
Seahawks fans! 49ers fans! Here is a way for you to one-up and trash-talk each other, without annoying the crap out of the rest of us: See which fan base can donate more money to a worthy cause in each other's city....
Photo Evidence Of Jim Harbaugh Buying Walmart Khakis
Earlier today, we found out that 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh has a pleated khaki addiction, to the point where he bought khakis at Walmart during the NFL Combine after his wife threw his pairs out. After that story surfaced, someone on Twitter shared photos of Harbaugh at a Walmart in Indianapolis, whe...
Jim Harbaugh Wears $8 Walmart Khakis
San Francisco 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh loves his gameday khakis, probably because NFL coaches are functional lunatics who cling devoutly to certain habits lest they come completely unmoored from reality, and also because khakis offer loose-fitting comfort at a reasonable price. ...
Pastor Holds One-Minute Church Service In Order To Make 49ers' Kickoff
This is Pastor Tim Christensen of Gold Hill Lutheran Church in Butte, Montana. He's a big 49ers fan, and unfortunately for him, his 11 a.m. service yesterday coincided with the kickoff of 49ers-Panthers. So Pastor Tim got a move-on....
Ahmad Brooks Flew, Cam Newton Flopped, And We All Laughed
We featured Ahmad Brooks's premature escalation briefly yesterday, but it seems the moment from yesterday's 49ers-Panthers game deserves a bit more inspection. After all, there's not one but two meaningful moments here: the flight of Brooks and the flop of Newton....
Seahawks Ban Californians From Buying NFC Championship Tickets
I hope everyone's ready for a full week of two insufferable fan bases shitting up comment sections everywhere....
Panthers Write Own Demise With Huge, Fruitless Drives
The Carolina Panthers weren't a total dud in their first playoff appearance since 2008. Their defense sufficiently contained Colin Kaepernick and the 49ers for the most part. But stalled drives killed them. Carolina burned over 17 minutes of game time on two offensive drives, coming away with just t...
Colin Kaepernick At Hooters
A reader sends along this picture with only a subject that reads "Kaep at Hooters in Charlotte." Missing are the trademark chicken wings or human breasts, so it's hard to tell—though you do get an overall feeling of desperation—but it probably is a Hooters. It looks like he's signing an autograph fo...
Ric Flair Claims He's Received Death Threats From Panthers Fans
Ric Flair is one of North Carolina's favorite sons. He's also a stylin', profilin', limousine ridin', jet flyin', kiss-stealin', wheelin' and dealin' son of a gun, so when the 49ers invited him to address the team, he said hell yes. But now the 49ers are heading to Charlotte, and Panthers fans aren'...
Colin Kaepernick Is Cold-Blooded
Colin Kaepernick forgot to strap on his wristband with his team's plays when he took the field for the second half, forcing the 49ers to burn a timeout. He let cornerback Micah Hyde read his eyes on a pass late in the fourth, and only Hyde's drop kept it from being a backbreaking interception. Cling...
Cool Offsides Penalty Has No Effect On 49ers Win
Joe Buck and Troy Aikman might have underplayed how close the 49ers-Packers game was to giving us extra football. Phil Dawson's game-winning kick went through Davon House's arms before it went through the uprights—though House may have been was offsides—as San Francisco won in Lambeau Field, 23-20....
Actual Photos Of Lambeau Field From Today
Remember when we thought it was really cold at Lambeau Field? Well, it still is cold—four degrees, currently—but that wasn't accurate evidence of how Lambeau Field is a frigid hellscape. Here are some real photos from today, thanks to AP photographers....
The 49ers-Packers Wild Card Game Is Going To Be So Damn Cold
It looks like this Sunday's Wild Card game between the Green Bay Packers and San Francisco 49ers is going to be one of the coldest games in NFL history. How cold is it going to be? Really damn cold....
Chart: All 64 Potential NFC Seeding Outcomes
There's been a lot of talk about the injustice of an 11-5 Arizona Cardinals team not making the playoffs—a distinct possibility!—but we could also have a 12-4 team as the 5 seed and an 11-5 team as the 6 in the NFC....
Anatomy Of A Con: How The Public Was Scammed To Build Candlestick Park
While everyone's free to be as nostalgic as they like about Candlestick Park now that it's probably seen the end of its useful life, it's worth remembering that it wasn't only a miserable place to watch a game, but also a forerunner of the modern public financing con. The piece below, which original...
