Alex Smith made a token appearance in game 4 of the preseason (handing the ball off 5 times), but the afternoon belonged to Colin Kaepernick. He was 12/18 for 158 yards, and 2 TDs. But, more than that he looked smooth and confident behind center. He made short passes, mid-range passes, and a couple deep balls that he connected on. A J Jenkins (4 catches, 59 yards, 1 TD) got playing time vs SD’s 1st and 2nd units and did well, even running Ted Ginn’s patented flanker sweep for a 9 yard gain.
The 1st team (pretty much) defense gave up yards, but did create turnovers against Philip Rivers and co (who played a lot longer than I sure thought they would). Ex-punter Bruce McCann (McBath?) came in and picked off a ball on the 5 yard line to thwart a drive, and an earlier drive was killed by a nice strip by CJ Spillman on Antonio Gates. So, the nominal starters put up a 21-0 spot on the Bolts.
The rest of the game was backup city as Tolzein took a step back in his securing the #3 spot. Tolzein played nervous and unsettled while JJ played loose and easy. He was helped by a swing pass to Palmer that Palmer took 50 yards to the end zone.
In cut-down news, Rock Cartwright has been cut (thus sparing Anthony Dixon), and Colin Jones has been traded to Carolina for their 7th round pick.
Chuck, just looked at the espn draft and u ended up with a good team. Iwill be a competitive league this yr.
Fuck I hope not. Chuck should have a weak pathetic team that will lose to my boyz twice. GO Crocs, Screw the Army!
it will
Tremaine Brock still on board the 53. Maiocco sez here’s why:
“Brock was up-and-down at cornerback, but he’s a very good special-teams player, particularly at gunner in punt coverage.”
Seely must have voted for him
He’s definitely on the bubble. Would be surprised to see either an LB or CB sighed from somewhere else.
Trying to sign a OLB today if he passes a physical. Clark Haggans formally fron the Cards.
Alex Smith elected a team captain along with Justin Smith, Patrick Willis and Frank Gore.
Voted on by his fellow team members. That’s R-E-S-P-E-C-T.
We got jack for JJ as some predicted balanced with a 7th for Colin Jones instead. I notice a lot of our cast offs are in demand now a days. Rueland, Jones, Owusu, Beeler.
Niners are getting better and deeper thanks to Baalkebaugh
I think we now have all the picks in next years 7th round. The good times are back.
Correct Man, we got ’em all. That round will go fast just like Del Mar’s FF Draft.
“SF on the clock” “SF on the clock”
It’s called P-I-T-Y.
And that’s called P-I-T-H-Y
And funny all the same.
I won’t use the H word but there is an element of extreme dislike for Alex Smith that is espoused here
Alex is the starting QB of the team you ladyboys claim to support. Deal with it bitches.
Lol, now that is funny
U do kinda sound like the old Skeebs
Alex Smith is an average NFL starting quarterback and irrelevant to our success. Now, JUSTIN Smith, that is another kettle of fish. It’s the DEFENSE, ‘Tupido.
Bingo!
Grow up, bucko. There is not ONE post re Alex on this thread. No one even dogs him that much here.You are acting a lot like skeebers. If I cared, I check to find out if you are.
So Sister Killjoy decided to stick around and charm us with her gracious attitude?
And me without my fucking Glock and all.
I have a glock too, amongst other bits and pieces.
unca _chuck
What are the first 2 words you lead off with in your blurb above? Does that count?
I posted the names of the four captains and mentioned respect and was ambushed.
Colin Jones was pick 190 in the 2011 NFL Draft which was in the 6th round.
Why is that so hard to comprehend? The list on the right border shows the 49er pick number not the round number. I know for sure you guys don’t belong to Mensa.
Your conspiracy theory that I am Skeebers is both bizarre and absurd.
Are we into witchhunts here?
Hey D-I-C-K-W-A-D
You the unidentified almighty reddog come on here instantly pick a fight with 12th man, piss on Chuck, accuse all of us of reacting to yer shit and NOW WE are on a ‘witch hunt’?
No reddog we are on a BITCH HUNT and that’s you our brand new pissy guest.
Fuck you Steve B
Luckily Chuck doesn’t care about all the phoney controversy or he might launch a coupla ‘Skippies’ to go with that ‘bucko’. Bucko.
Did you guys hear the great news? Bud Light now has their own fantasy football league. Each specially marked bottle has a code that translates into a roster spot. The more Bud Light you drink the better your chances of fielding a winning team. It’s like they invented the game just for me. I do love Anheuser-Busch so.
Send a case ASAP. Thanks
I’d like em better if they wouild send me a case now and again for being such a good customer all these yrs.
They have started back up the budweiser tour again at the brewery in Van Nuys next time your in Van Nuys sightseeing Dennis. Free libations for all as you tour.
CHuck– I haven’t checked out the site in a while, waiting for the real shit to start.
What the fuck is this guy talking about?
“phil fan says:

reddog is twinfan. Just ignore. Pay no attention to the smoke and mirrors. I recommend the same strategy with reddick as with my buddy Del Mar = let it go; not a serious discussion.
His buudy Irish Kevin = Flavor until proven otherwise. Same old tired game.”
by the way Phil, I’m not sure if your paranoid schizophrenia is gonna get in the way of appreciating this but here’s the thread Chuck wrote yesterday at my blog. Sorry Chuck but I knew you’d be too modest to post it here yourself. 🙂
Heck of a piece Chuck, thanks for the link flavor.
Never mind flavor, it ain’t you or twin, it’s better than that- it’s Skebers! Fantastic
look you weirdo, I am me, I don’t fiddle around with fake names and hidden screen names. Twin doesn’t do that gay shit either. He was Crabby-whatever at the Splash but he told everyone that.
I’m looking forward to coming back to Chuck’s blog when the season starts and we get a few more folks running through here.
Denny, we still need to formalize our bet on Smith and Numb Fingers……..
I agree with Flavor, I hate people who accuse others of phony personas that are not true. I condemn people who accuse others.
Well said and now Phil Fan thinks I’m Skeebers with another bocus conspiracy theory rant.
He ought to at least apologize to the people he falsely accused.
I don’t care “who” you are reddog. You are an asshole. Always were, always will be.
Capice?

Some talented guys on the PS bodes well for the future.
From the Chroncile staff…Kuckleheads of the week….NFL Replacements Refs
Assuming these fellows were top officials at lower levels,there will be a trickle-down effect this season,with shoddier reffing at every level of football.
Some of these replacement refs were plucked from other walks of life.
From internal league documents that were leaked,here is a list of what some of them were doing a mere month ago:
»School Crossing Guard
»Homeless guy holding”Will fef for food” sign
»Macarena contest competitor
»Air traffic controller at Blimpport
»Foot Locker clerk
»Badminton ref
»Maytag repairman
»Village People person
I wonder what those jobs pay?
Dunno. Can they be any more fun than this?
Naw…
I love how Chuck too the time to change “Whatcha talkin’ bout, Willis?” to “Whatchoo talkin’ about Willis?”
That’s some fuckin’ attention to detail of blog appearance……….
obviously change the last *about* to *bout*.
Should we be talkin’ about this?
(obscure Seinfeld ref, not expecting anyone to appreciate the moment)
Chuck has many virtues. Good writin’ among them.
So that’s why you wear kneepads..
Relax people that’s a J-O-K-E. We don’t know (or care?) who reddog is except he does love attention, likes to argue for no apparent reason, loves Smith, A, and a few people here have said his schtick reminds them of Skkeber the dickwad.
Ain’t about me girls
Who is reddog? reddog is reddog. I can tolerate Smith as the QB because he led us to the NFC Championship Game and Coach Harbaugh and Trent Baalke have put their faith in him.
Now you can’t man up to making the accusation and insist this is a mob view.
You seem to be a mob of one.
Not rally. Dickwad of one =
One skeefuck.
Hey D-I-C-K-W-A-D
You the unidentified almighty reddog come on here instantly pick a fight with 12th man, piss on Chuck, accuse all of us of reacting to yer shit and NOW WE are on a ‘witch hunt’?
No reddog we are on a BITCH HUNT and that’s you our brand new pissy guest.
Fuck you Steve B
Poor little Stevie B got his undies in a bunch because Chuck dared to call Berger’s opine?
Yes he did. Fact for those who have not already fallen into a coma.
So skeefuck comes on here, tosses six tons of shit and HEY! “We’re a buncha ‘witch hunters’?
No actually. Skeefuck, our friend reddog, is a rancid sack of repulsive dog guts who has a small prollem classified as “Control Addiction” which demands We Are To Blame…for one Steve B’s need to find a victim: Smith haters, Phil Fan, Chuck, 12th Fan, Grumpy, etc.
You got an addiction to dominate, control and manipulate? FINE. So what?
Very boring. So let’s move on.
Betcha won’t dickwad.
Phil, I have no idea what I’ve ever done to you to deserve all your libelous venom. I helped you join the blogosphere a year ago, then you went to this site and I’ve not seen your posts on my site for some time. Your extreme anger toward me is baffling.
You’ve now accused three people on this thread of being “reddog” and you’ve been dead wrong each time. I’m not him. If you knew anything about the english language, compositional style, and vocabulary usage, you’d know in a second who “reddog” is. I do, but I’m not going to help you figure it out. In the meantime, you need to get some help. You’re not well. And you should stick to what you do best here: sucking Chuck’s dick. Anything else just reveals you as a complete moron.
Bite it dickwad
