AKA Saturday bloody Saturday. Cut down day has just begun, and Tim Terrific has been cut from the Patriots, and Matt Hot Tub Leinart has been axed from the Bills. Oh, yeah, Travis Johnson, LB for the Niners has been cut as well. And I think we can safely assume Seneca Wallace is not going to make the cut.
Stay tuned for more bloodletting. It’ll be interesting to see if we pick up a player or 2 from the discard pile.
Hurts pass incomplete short middle to A.Brown was a gift . . . The only way this guy’s name would ever be in lights is if his parents had named him EXIT.

I see this Season starting with lots of motion and ground attack.
Our OL is going to take time to adjust to the new system, however, a WCO should help them once Alex and the WRs get into the necessary rhythm.
Game 1, lots of Gore and Hunter, 9ers win a close one. I do expect Harbaugh to take some deep shots though, VD and Braylon will be a nice duo.

Woof!
Seneca Wallace retired again. Michael Thomas and Jason Shepler were cut.
Vince Young cut from the Packers. Maybe Tebow will catch on there.
Give him a bus ticket to Canada.
Ever been north of the border? Vancouver, B.C. is a beautiful place. It’s just a hop, skip and a jump over
…the line. You have a problem with Canadians? Pourquoi? Parlez-vous Français ? Oui? C’est fantastique.
For the record, I studied both French and Latin in school. But I have CRS disease. Can’t Remember Shit. I have to look it up. “The mind is a terrible thing to waste…”
Trenton Robinson, safety . . .
Shit they just cut long snapper icon Brian Jennings.Stupid ass move IMO.Just to save a half a million?chump change in the NFL.
And did they even offer him a reduced salary option? Fucking dude is one of the best all- time snapper ever.Freakin Bill Walsh drafted him who l believe knew some talent ferchrissakes.
Lots of pressure now on this kid McDermott. 1st few bad snaps and the fans will want his head on a spigot.
New kicker, start with a younger snapper?…
Hawkins cut, Kyle Williams stays. Apparently. I don’t get that, I don’t see why Kyle Williams is better than Hawkins. Unless Hawkins is a total head case. Which, I’m not sure he is or isn’t. But, if he is not, Hawkins is a decent WR. He gets open, can catch a little, he’s bigger than Williams, and he can return kicks. I follow Cal, and I don’t remember Hawkins being rumored there as a head case or a sh-t distruber. The next time Williams fumbles, well, he better get ready for a minor sh-tstorm from Ninerfans…
Football players getting cut off a roster is “Bloody Saturday?”
Tell that to this Shanghai baby back in ’37. That, was Bloody Saturday.
Nipper, tonight it’s seared mesquite pork tenderloin. Accompanied by red beans and rice with a little sweet creamed corn. And I’ll finish that off with some Boston Cream Pie with cherries on top.
Touchdown Dennis!
Too bad about Hawkins. Thought he’d survive.
He’s no Gloria Gaynor…
That is one of the few songs that I consider timeless and never ending. I’m sure everyone has heard it a million times like I have, but there’s just something about it. That song is great therapy. I always feel better about myself having listened to it.
Thanks!
Dennis as roller disco queen?
*** BREAKING NEWS***
Cowboys just cut Jerry Jones!
In other team news,the final roster team has been “FIRED” and Jerry Jones has been reinstated!
Now that their both “CUT”,Vince Young &Matt “hot tub” Leinart can now just hang out and watch their last shining moment of fame…The 2006 Rose Bowl game.
The Raiders are keeping TWO punters and they just waived their rookie 4th rd QB.
That sums them up in a nutshell.
LAMAO
I really gotta watch what I type
I see we put Darryl Morris (sp) on the practice squad. That’s the only name I saw so far.
The Colts opened up as a 6 1/2 pt. favorite vs the Raiders. The line is already up to 10. Don’t the gamblers realize the Raiders have two punters? TWO! That’s gotta be worth at least 7 pts. on its own.
Osgood should make it to the taxi squad.
They’ll be doubly favored to win the West, Dennis
No Osgood (yet) but OL Patrick Omameh, S Mike Thomas, DL Mike Purcell, RB Jewel Hampton, WR Chuck Jacobs, and OT Carter Bykowski have been signed to the PS (along with Darryl Morris).
I think there’s room for one more guy.
What happened to Lavelle Hawkins? Where’d he end up?
Near as I can tell, he’s still an FA.
Wow. Didn’t hear about Ray Lewis and His delusional fantasies until just now. He thinks that the NFL pulled the plug on the Super Bowl to allow the 49ers back int the game. Uh, yeah. Got it.
You won, Ray. Shut the fuck up.
Here’s Jed’s response, via Tweet.
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/09/01/jed-york-jabs-at-the-ray-lewis-conspiracy-theory/related/
Not bad, Jed.
Seriously Chuck.
I said the same thing on Skeebers’ site.
He wins the game, gets the Ring, yet has to be talking smack about a conspiracy?
Let’s talk about the jail time you did in Atlanta regarding a double homicide Ray.
Conspiracy?
Better look up the meaning of that one Ray.
Two guys died and, he and his entourage were neck deep in the events that surrounded the murders.
Thank God that clown is done playing.
I just hope we don’t have to see a steady diet of his opinions for ESPN.
Just sorry we couldn’t ruin his retirement party.
Everytime Ray Ray opens his mouth and utters anything we all get just a bit more stupid. Osmosis, I think. STFU.
NJ49er, you see this sort of thing when an ex-player is under pressure to make a splash when entering a broadcast career. Sometimes the stupidity is so outrageous it spells the end before it begins. I really hope that’s the case for Lewis. I think that newly minted HOF under-tackle tried the same a time or two. It’s all show-biz hype.
I think our game turned on Ngati’s and Justin Smith’s ability to play anyway.
I’m against ex-jocks in broadcasting. Most of them are boring and tiresome people. Of course there’s always exceptions, but too few to mention. Chuck’s dog would bring more effort to a broadcast. Arf!
Of course with some treats!
Packers pick up both Tolzien and now the unretired Wallace for the match up come Sunday. Fuckin Wallace,what a POS” he probably only came in to our camp to micro film the Playbook.Pretty fishy how he bailed out on us, then signs with the Pack days before this game.
Lol if there that desperate coming in to “Our House” with these clowns , an what little knowledge(Tolzien not Wallace) provide.Guess their not desperate enough for Tebow yet?
They trade Johnson (who looks now like a 4th rounder) for a 7th round pick, then sign a rookie WR cut from Seattle = Harper? To play, or for intel? Why is he better than Hawkins, who could return kicks, too? Now they’ve got a closet filled with wannabe WRs, and more when / if Manningham is back. I’d have thought that Johnson as a backup QB assassin, and only getting better, was a great asset to have. Call me puzzled…
I think Baalke’s just trying to eliminate all evidence of the 2012 draft. He’s almost there.
Every team’s in the same boat. But, they should expand the rosters to 55, at least. Keep the same practice squad number. Two additional per team won’t break the NFL bank, and it would help stop teams having to give up pretty decent players that have been with the team all through camp or even longer…
Yeah, the Cam trade is puzzling. As is the Hawkins thing. At least he’s somewhat proven as a WR. These are fringe guys anyway, so I’m not too concerned. They have an awful lot of confidence in the green WR corps, that’s for sure.
Talk is Harper will be switched to TE. Which means H back in the diamond formation?
Haven’t seen them run that very muc.h this preseason.
They ran that about 40% of the Miami game I went to last year.
Could also be that Hawkins would be guaranteed his Contract value if he’s on an NFL Roster for the 1st game too?
I have a feeling Seattle might be doing that with Michael Robinson, we’ll see.
I liked Harper at K-State, he’s very similar to Patton.
Harper is little heavier but, I think they’re about the same height.
Either way, stealing someone from Pete is always a good thing from my vantage point.
Might be that Baalke had Harper on the Board in April too.
Look at it as getting another 4th Rd Pick, courtesy of Seattle leaving him unprotected on Cut Down Day.
As for Cam, he got us another 7th Rd Pick.
Nice that Baalke turned an extra Roster spot into some Draft Currency, instead of just cutting him loose to open the slot for a player they felt was more valuable.
Curious to see where Marecic slides into the picture now.
From Combine Bio information –
Harper 6’1″ 229
Patton 6’0″ 204
Patton had the higher Draft Grade for what that’s worth.
One interesting piece of the puzzle is that Harper played in a Run heavy system at K-State.
Could be a good indication why both we and Seattle saw value in him.
Patton was just an electric RAC prospect, which of course, is also a great attribute.
