Speaking of UDFAs . . .

. . . the 49ers filled out their roster with 17 undrafted invitees to be cannon fodder for the rest of the team to beat up on. There may be a few diamonds in the rough. Chris Owusu, the Stanford WR, could bump Michael Crabtree off the roster. Kidding, but you never know. Harbaugh’s all about competition, and he pulled a lot of beef out of the chaff. Garrett Celek could push his way onto the team if Walker walks. I won’t bore you with the details of their excellent pedigree, because likely there are only one or two that make the taxi squad, and one or two who make the team. But here they are in all their glory . . .

    WTF happened to this once great game of football that I was reared and nurtured on as a young child? The game I know and love is gone.

    • phil fan's avatar philippinefan says:

      The game has changed to match the woosey-ness of the times. With 16 Billion in the hole the nanny state California can’t afford itself anymore than the rest of the US can. But the woosey-fying regulations outta our betters at HQ will cease long long after the money runs out.

    Don’t watch Dennis. How about you shut up?

    • Del Mar Dennis's avatar Del Mar Dennis says:

      How bout’ you muddle along with your blog w/o my witty and punctual repartee?
      That would be a challenge. You need me.

      Phil, you have to rub the lamp three times and say the magic words, “Alex Smith.”

      • philippinefan's avatar philippinefan says:

        Serious lol Grumpy. That;s why I’m going to take yer earlier advice, and be vewy vewy quiet and Not Mention the QB who shall not be mentioned..

        …Ah, the sounds of silence…

    Enough of these distractions, back to NASCAR…

  5. Del Mar Dennis's avatar Del Mar Dennis says:

    74 Laps to go… and now Bobby LaBonte brings out the the caution….there goes my ‘C’ driver…now Berger’s guy, “Smoke,” just took a dump in the pits. Welcome to NASCAR…

    Did I ever tell you guys about the time I met Jack Nicholson? Of course not. Haven’t had the pleasure. Jack’s the one guy I really would like meet. I think I speak for most everyone when I say, “Jack epitomizes the meaning of cool.”

    Set aside his three Oscars, easy to set aside, but Jack has “It.” “It” has been tried to be defined many a times in history with no definitive answer. There is no definition. You just live it. You just act it. And you just are it.

    Jack’s it.

    • Nipper's avatar Nipper says:

      What about Jack Daniels?

    • phil fan's avatar philippinefan says:

      Bogart was another one. Hemingway too. But yeah Jack is still cool and still around. Not many men like that anymore..prolly never were

      Now with the World Wide Spy Machine (I mean wwweb) filtered through google, facebook direct to big brother you can assume webmasters, everyone everywhere knows when you sport wood, curse the prez, wipe yer ass. The cumulative effect on football will be reflected when the refs call for the electronic coin toss at the beginning of each week’s
      NFL Virtual Football Game. Won’t that be fun?

      Nicholson would hoist another one at that….a drink or a middle finger or both. Up yer snooping ass dickwads!

      Actually it was just a pop quiz and you easily passed.

      For a scary minute there I thought Denny and I chased you off yer own blog for good leaving us two and Nipper to blather endlessly about ridiculous subjects. Scary

    Chuck what is WordPress saying about all the emails!!

    • philippinefan's avatar philippinefan says:

      I seen the “Check box” marked by default sometimes saying “Notify Me….blah blah”. I try to remember to uncheck it before posting.

    Nice article on LaMichael James from Barrows:

    He’s going to be a good one

    Sucks that 5th round pick LB Darius Fleming tore his ACL in non contact practice today,likely.ending his Rookie season.Would of liked to have seen him play on ST and backup LB role this year.

  11. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Yeah, I think Cam Johnson just got a better shot at making the roster.

    I’m thirsty my friends!

    Bear with me while I sort out WTF is wrong with WordPress.

  14. philippinefan's avatar philippinefan says:

    >Whatchoo talkin’ bout, Willis?< Huh? This is in the "Leave Reply" area.

    Chuck WordPress has a nice format but performance of their software sucks. I can see how this would try the patience of a saint- or even you

    That Dana Plato (Kimberly) from “Diff’rent Strokes” sure was a mess. She OD’ed on Vicodin (after many previous suicide attempts) when she was only 34.

    I have to monitor my Vicodin. Booze + pain meds. = trouble. I’m liable to “pull a Marilyn” myself at any moment.

  16. Del Mar Dennis's avatar Del Mar Dennis says:

    Glad to hear the 49ers gave a thumbs down to the HBO “Hard Knocks” deal. Don’t get me wrong, I really enjoy watching the show. It provides great insight and a behind-the-scenes view of a team at training camp. Those moments of players having to go meet the “Turk” are especially captivating. I just don’t want it to me my team involved. I don’t want any fucking distractions.

  17. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    I watched that the other day and Brian Bilick was the HC, Rex Ryan the DC, and Marvin Lewis was the DB coach. I though, gee, exciting.

    BTW the blog is working now . . .

    New post.
