Yikes. This has all been plastered all over the web-o-spheres, but really, how stupid is Chris Culliver? Here’s a guy who, on the verge of the biggest game of his young career, spouts anti-gay remarks to a Howard Stern employee on tape. Ooops. He follows that with a supremely shitty game.
The ice was thin at that point, but he did the necessary percerption-is-reality speech and vowed to spend a month hanging out at the Stud to immerse himself in the gay community and maybe figure out how to cover a tight end coming out of the backfield. Wink wink.
On his way back to respectability, he managed to blow his knee out early last training camp, and thus was lost for the season. He kept his nose clean and was on his way back to his under-the-radar status, and inheriting a starting spot at CB, what with Tarell Brown scooting across the Bay Bridge for Oaktown, and Carlos Rogers being given his outright release. However, last Friday morning, he managed to hit a bicyclist on Seventh Ave in San Hozay, and proceeded to flee the scene. In his attempted flee he clipped another car and was eventually cornered by a concerned citizen who witnessed the hit-and-run. For his concern, the citizen was then threatened to get the shit beat out of him by our (anti) hero with a pair of brass knuckles if he didn’t get out of his way. The cops arrived, and I guess Chris figured it was time to cut his losses, as you don’t bring brass knuckles to a gun fight.
Aside the societal ramifications of football players who think they are somehow bigger than the world they live in, Culliver isn’t a good enough corner to recieve the rope that a guy like Aldon Smith got (hey Aldon! Check out MY gun collection!!). So, he’s likey on a one-way ticket to Pac-Man Jonestown. A couple years spent in purgatory (with a 3 month stint in the Santa Rita Correctional Facility), and some serious image rehab. More often than not, these guys do mend their ways, at least perceptually (which is all that matters to Goodie Goodell), but other times you end up like Art Schichter. Doin’ hard time after running a gambling ring in the early 80s, and now a ticket-selling scam where he pocketed millions to gamble with.
Speaking of cornerbacks, if we sign either Nnamdi, Bailey, or (urk) Rogers, you will see a lot of BLEEPs. I’d be MUCH happier with a rookie back there.
My readers and I still demand justice, and we’re all going on strike until I’m the POTD. No exceptions. I’ll once again, for the five thousandth time, bring this blog to its knees.
My faithful readers have been sending me messages of support. I will not go quietly into the night….
Culliver is an idiot. But how many idiots are in the NFL, biding their time before they present themselves on the national stage as Grade A-1 Class idiots?
I look at guys like Culliver like I do guys who take steroids and get busted in MLB. If you’re dumb enough to not be able to beat a steroid test then I don’t want you on the team anyway.
Next….
Man Cully is his own worst enemy. Making it much harder on himself than needed. Success isn’t good enough? Okay try miserable failure son.
I bet he has little support around himself out here on W Coast.

Press coverage from Chris Cook coming up
Somehow Culliver forgot to notice the CB depth coming out in the Draft in May.
Stupid is as stupid does I guess……
Why overpay in FA when kids from College have dreams to make it in the Pros?
And….they come at bargain rates.
Sniff……so stupid….so young….so stupid….BLEEP!
Over turning umpire/referee calls already happening in beesball. We’re dying for this in the NFL:

Yeah, NJ. That’s my feeling with DSJ as opposed to a rook. Now CB as well. They better not go with Bailey or Rogers.
Rogers signed w/Oakland yesterday = the place 9ers go to finish up
Chuck, there’s absolutely no reason to gamble with DJax in the locker room IMO.
Contract demands not withstanding, he’s never been known for his work ethic or team first attributes.
Like Revis, he’s all about Pay Me.
I believe Baalke knows the game well enough to know, that you don’t overpay for guys with baggage.
Kenny Britt? One year, $1.4 is chicken feed. But he brings some baggage with with him.
Reunited with Jeff Fisher.
Might be a comfort zone there?
I think Fisher Drafted him in TN?
My people will not be placated!!!!!
Yeah, NJ. If they were desperate, they woulda gone after Britt. DSJ is Britt x 10.
Britt with Anthony Davis around might have been worth the 1year gamble IMO Chuck.
Both are NJ guys/Rutgers Grads.
Britt definitely has some baggage in tow but, it looks like he and Jeff Fisher are going to rekindle their past relationship in St Louie now.
Kenny is a beast, when he wants to be.
Definitely need some cover guys facing them. They got speed at WR.
Well, that or a pass rush . . .
We’ll get our share of talent next month.
Plenty of options.
A pass rush is always the answer to beating a passing game.
Many of these DBs coming out tackle well too, which is something Carlos wasn’t exactly stellar at.
Even the little guy from TCU, Jason Verrett does a nice job of getting guys on the ground.
I could easliy see Baalke taking a guy like Stanley Jean-Baptiste and converting him to S.
Another kid, Dontae Johnson from NC St could go that route too.
Many of these taller CBs don’t run extremely well but, they’re fast enough to consider in our Secondary system I think.
Get speed where you need it, Slot CB for example and, maybe, take a chance with a project guy or 2 later in the Draft.
Maybe consider CB Kendall James from Maine in that scenario?
Lots of options this year.
If we could land a faster S, like Calvin Pryor or Deone Bucannon, along with a fast CB like Verrett or Fuller, we’d be sitting pretty.
Pryor would involve dealing up for in RD1 however.
Deone could be there in RD2, maybe 3.
Fuller is a guy I’d like to have an option for at Pick 30.
Both Fuller and Bucannon posted 4.4s, Pryor 4.58 and Verrett a 4.38.
Good mix of options, both at the top of the Draft and, likely throughout.
Then there’s the WR needs.
Baalke gets paid to predict where these guys should get slotted and, there’s always other GMs looking to make moves to screw those plans up.
Quite the shell game.
Free Spitblood from Chuck’s oppression! The people have spoken!

Now we know why he can’t buy a HC job. Alex D. Smith Jr. High School coach would be a scar on anyone’s resume.
Correct
But I think Roman has presented enough of a body of work (by not winning the big one 2X) that he doesn’t “need” the HS on his resume. Tho Alex improved alot under Har/man…
As for me I don’t give a damn about the locker room, just the play on the field. Just win baby! Oops…. wrong team.
Nice, Phil. Almost! Funny thing is the ‘author’ of the story.
Rashaun Woods. EVERY comment is disappointed that it isn’t real.
Sad, but true.
Can the Niners give any more of their sloppy seconds to the Raiduhs? Can we give them Roman to be their new OC?…
Donald Trump approached about party ownership in the Bills. Pigs get fat, if you bring Trump, you all get slaughtered. The NFL is becoming a joke, right before our very eyes.
