  1. Kitchens is good at what he does, but is he a strong leader? that's yet to be seen. The talent is unquestionable.

    Gregg might've been an asshole, but he was a proven leader. Love him or hate him, he wouldn't put up with undisciplined play or bullshit.

    We should've kept Gregg and let Freddie run the offense. Dorsey got too smart.

    Let me tell you, going to the game with my friend and seeing him drop $3000 on tickets to watch what happened in San Francisco was abysmal. I had to sit for 4 quarters and watch 49ers fans talk shit the whole time. I watched Baker play like a deer in headlights. I watched our run defense roll over and make Matt Brieda look like Walter Payton.

    Get a leader to run the team Freddie, or demote yourself if you can't be the leader. Sometimes leaders need to get mad. If Freddie wasn't furious after that game, then he doesn't deserve to be head coach.

    Think of the thousands of Browns fans that traveled there and paid hard earned money to see that. Even if the Hue days, how often did we get blown out that abysmally.

    That.....is a long story.  LOL.

    You are correct....Levis is in Santa Clara which is about 45 minutes from SF. Reality tho is that the Niners kinda belong to entire Bay Area and not just SF. SF is the most famous city, but it isn't the largest. It can't be. Its surrounded on 3 sides by water.

    Santa Clara is a very small city, but its immediate neighbor is San Jose, which is the largest city by size and population in the Bay Area. Its also the capitol of the silicon valley. When the 49ers were in SF, a much larger % of their season ticket holders were from the South Bay than from SF. In addition, they really wanted that Tech Industry $$$$$, so boom, Levis Stadium. Add to that a 20 year battle with the city of SF, that's why they moved.

     Anyone who comes to the game will probably notice its surrounded by the Great America Theme Park (closed on Gamedays), Santa Clara Convention Center, and a Golf course (which is about to be ripped up and turned into a like 6 billion dollar mall/restaurant complex including a Joe Montana restaurant right across the street from the stadium).

    Pretty much everything else will be tech companies....Dell, Citrix, Marvell, etc.

    That last part is important for this reason...get there early. 5:15 West Coast kickoff puts it right in rush hour. Thankfully, I work at one of those tech companies so I'll be walking. I can actually look out the window and see the stadium from here. :)  Anyone flying in, San Jose Airport is VERY close (so close that Levis is in the flight path and it partially dictated the maximum height of the stadium).

    Good Luck gentlemen.

    I live in San Jose now. Love it so far.

    Psycho Donuts in Santa Clara has some of the best, most unique donuts i've ever had.

    A police report was never filed... purely a Civil action.

    My first questions at her deposition...

    "You say this happened three times over a 1-year+ period... Why did you put yourself back in the situation a second time? And the third time?"

     

    No telling where this goes, but feels wrong to me at first blush.

    Apparently she got very amazing lawyers. All that matters is the evidence. She did ask AB to invest 1.6 mil in a company of hers. I'm guessing she was upto some devious behavior, but if AB is guilty lock him up forever. I, however, won't crucify anyone until the evidence is evident.

    It's obviously too early to act like the sky is falling

    That being said, the ridiculous hype from fans this season was, well, ridiculous. I was saying we needed to calm down a little. 

    But it'll be interesting to read posts from users on here that are just turning on the players and coaches, immediately, that they loved not long ago. 

    I like Kitchens as an offensive coordinator, but I feel that he may of been rushed into the HC position. I know some people hate Gregg, but the players feared him and played for him. Hate him or love him, there's no way Gregg would ever let us have this many penalties in a game.

    I have had a very disappointing response to both league emails and multiple posts in the fantasy thread. While a few of you have confirmed most have not. Neither league have enough confirmed at this point to be viable and draft. Last year I deleted a couple of teams because of no response yet they intended to play so I reinvited. If you were in one of the leagues last year is it too much to ask that you confirm either you will or will not be participating?? At this point I have very little time to fill them out. Mod if you could stick this it would help. Honesty without a better process and response time next year I’ll likely not be interested in being commissioner of a league. 

    Its tough being commish dude. I've ran a league with friends for 8 years. It might be worth a new thread on here. You know i'm in and down for both and if you need any help recruiting let me know.
