Another Day, Another WR Injury

In lieu of anything going on, the 49ers inked Brandon Carswell, he of his great fame at Milpitass HS, to a 2-year deal, and then moments later tore his ACL in a non-contact drill. This was a few days ago, but what the hell? Nothing is going on in football in general, or in Ninerland specifically. Vance McDonald, erstwhile 2nd round TE pick, supposedly had a great minicamp, and has been seen running impeccable seam routes. Huzzah. Let’s hope he doesn’t get hurt.

As it stands, only 36 days til the open of training camp, and it can’t come soon enough. On with the movie reviews . . .

    “Moby Dick” on now. Almost over, though.
    I just read the true memoirs that the movie was based upon last year.
    My friend’s daughter is manic depressive and I had to argue to get the book away.
    Read it once and threw it away.
    Really based upon a true story of an incompetent captain who refused to make ship repairs and yet they hunted whales in the Pacific.
    Still, a few survived out of the crew and made it home.
    The captain got two more chances, too. Got his boats sunk on those, too. Wound up a night watchman.
    I’m going back to rereading “American Creation” by Joseph J. Ellis. Much more fun and a happier ending.

        “American Creation” is a truly fascinating book. It focuses mostly on the internal squabbles of the Founding Fathers and how the American Republic became a Republic and why and how and what. 1775-1803.
        Written in a non-academic narrative style. By a Pulitzer Prize winning author.

    Try Less than Zero for some shits and giggles. Brett Easton Ellis. Speaking of Gregory Peck, I’ve never seen To kill a mockingbird. Just read it again as my son had to read it for HS English.

    GREAT golf tourney going on on CBS, if anybody is interested.
    The old vet and the young buck duking it out on the 2nd playoff hole.
    Neither has ever won a PGA tourney.
    These guys are freakin’ great and they’ve never won!

    Ken Duke is going to Augusta for the Master’s!! He’s 44 and never won a PGA tourney before!
    You should have seen the shots. I mean, these guys are really, really good.
    Tiger was in the tourney. They both beat him.

    Did I ever tell you guys about the time I met Tiger at Augusta?

    No? There’s a good reason behind that, it never happened. But if I did, I woulda told him to take his Green Jacket and shove it up his black ass. Did you hear the latest news? His current wife, Lindsey Vonn, believes Tiger is cheating on her with his ex-wife…

    “Lindsey’s not happy at all. She feels betrayed and believes he is still in love with Elin,” an inside source reportedly revealed to The Enquirer. She’s well aware that Tiger and Elin were having sex while they were discussing the possibility of getting remarried, and in her heart she’s convinced that they’re still at it.”

    And don’t give me shit about my source. “Inquiring minds want to know.” 🙂

    RT, isn’t he the Joe Ellis of stolen valor fame? I think so. Hard to take his history books seriously when he’s making claims of parachuting into Vietnam with the 101st Airborne Division, among other phony tales.
