Game Day . . . We’re In Bat Country

In the inexorable death march to whatever this offseason purge portends, we have reached the mid-point of the season in worse shape than last year. Huh? How is that possible? Why? Well, a steadily dwindling pool of talented players is the biggest reason. Throw in injuries to what few good players we have, a revolving door approach to coaching hires, and lack of attention to the offense for the past 6 drafts, and the slide continues.

I have no idea what happens at the end, but if the results are going to continue on the current trend, what is there to do? 8 more losses and we’ve done the impossible and made Jimmy T look like, well, Monte Clark. Instead of himself, which is how the front office portrayed him  as they tossed him aside. As if they weren’t the ones that hired him in the first place. Granted, Adam Gase, Hue Jackson, Jim Harbaugh, or God himself couldn’t win with this collection of 2nd and 3rd stringers.

So my hope is for fly-bys, protests,  and more and more bags . . .

    Yeah we’re at the stage of wait until next year and future drafts. The present are ugly losses and sad dudes explaining mistakes on the field of play. Those questions at the end of games I wouldn’t wish on anyone. To fail in a public way must be a horrible experience.

    Wow. Who knew the KKK was a viable branch of the Trump machine? Let’s hear it for racism and hate. Sn I though the Brits were stupid.

    Pot wins in 8 of 9 races! 4 rec, 4 dead red Republican states medical. Now legal normally (sort of) in 8 states comprising 23% of the U.S. population. It might make it here in my lifetime. Not likely, but it might. It sure as hell would help with imsomnia.

        No time for a playbook, no time for the issues confronting the Country either apparently.

        I’m not crying too much, NJ. I hated Hillary. I fear the Donald will give away Eastern Europe to the Russians. A Reich Wing victory ,time the U.S. has ignored the militarization of Europe, we’ve paid dearly for it. The EU, and perhaps NATO itself, is in jeopardy.

        Eliminating the estate tax and slashing taxes for the 1% brings the U.S. closer and closer to a medieval European style aristocracy. Wait till Donald’s “He’s fighting for us the people” fans get a real whiff of that.

        My own state is going to be a disaster. I can take comfort that I’m white and don’t live in Albuquerque?

        I can only hope with the military. The man is going to be Commander-in-Chief. I might move back to the west coast. If I’m going to die in the next four years, at least let me get stoned once or twice.

    Hillary will never admit that she could have won by endorsing more of Bernie’s platform. Bernie’s plan for free college tuition was unwieldly and should have been more of the German model of achievement based, but it was a start. It was never reported in the national press, but he had a detailed plan to pay it all with a tiny tax on the massive speculative Wall Street microtransactions, the kind that didn’t impede the normal usage of speculation in capitalism.

    Pot was derided by Hillary; she threw a sop and said she’d change the scheduling to II.

    There’s your youth and suburban wife vote, you stupid Democratic Party hack. Something you won’t get from cable news political analysis, since they seem to be ignoring these subjects like they’re the plague.

      Politics is what it is RT – A game for the well connected.
      If there’s a profit to be made, and lawsuit entanglement to avoid, things get done.
      Let’s see just how much clout Trump can wield in an arena he’s never participated in as an insider, let alone the Chief Executive to be.

      • NJ49ER's avatar NJ49er says:

        Agree as well regarding Hillary.
        But I’ve always had a jaundiced eye toward Politics.
        Comes down to picking an idiot no matter the matchup IMO.
        One thing never changes however, the rich get richer and we get the shaft.

    Most of the main stream media flows out of a 7 mile square spot of land. The two biggest cable news networks come out of the same building. It’s amazing.

    The USC/LA Times poll got it right again, two Presidential Elections in a row.

    In other news, Jed is still CEO of the Niners, Paraag is still Rasputin, and Baalke is still the GM. But I guess I’ll stick to writing about the Niners. There’s always the 22nd century.

    Another day and yes the 9ers still suck no matter who is the President. Lets face it, the country is sick of the Clintons. Her e-mails, her crap personality and her husband looming around made a Trump victory possible. Now to start building that great wall in Mexico. Of course the Mexicans will build tunnels beneath it and come forth in droves as the huge invasion takes place without end. Donald can change first ladies every year by just paying off the latest “bought lady”. America you’re getting what you deserve.

  8. NJ49ER's avatar NJ49er says:

    We’re all sick of Government in general, which is what Trump won on.
    Sadly however, he can’t take Office and fire them all.
    Same big money manipulates the process.
    I wish him luck.
    For all our sake.

    B. through next season
    C. end of this season
    D. Lifetime contract
    E. a few more hours

    from BASG:
    Baalke 3rd round picks since 2013:

    Lemonier (gone)
    Martin (no starts in ’16)
    Borland (retired)
    Thomas (gone)
    Harold (not good)
    Redmond (IR)

    4 years of 3rd round picks and they have Eli Harold and Marcus Martin to show for it and Harold would be on the bench too if not for injuries. 6 high draft picks, no starting quality players and 2 bench warmers. Oh and he is the defensive guru right?

    • Nipper's avatar Nipper says:

      Welcome to the Draft under Baalke. 49ers are very unlucky with Baalke. Jed better hire new men to study these drafting results.

    for all the trump supporters

    It’s just about as amazing that Baalky’s still here than trump being president.. I just hope he bumps up Social Security. Unfucking believable.

    I just watched DC O’Neil in his latest presser, he looks like a hunted man. His answers are weak and he looks like he ran out of ideas.

    Out of his depth, too young, too inexperienced.

    • Nipper's avatar Nipper says:

      Fire the DC, now!

      • 12th Man's avatar 12th Man says:

        He deserves a flying banner all his own. His basic defense of himself was consistency wins and that there have been 3 different DC’s in 3 years. Wait, so that means even if you suck the Niners should stick with you?

        Great argument.

  16. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Yeah, the funny thing will be when Trump backs off on everything he promised.

    Either that or Phil Fan is about to go up in a giant mushroom cloud as we fight our limited nuclear war with China.

    QB third down stats, Tom Brady is far and away the best and the Niners combo is the worst, Kap even worse than Gabbert if you can believe that:

    I was at last years away game in Arizona with a buddy. It took a long time to get into the stadium and find our seating section and we decided to get a couple of beers before sitting down for the game. The Niners were down 14 points in 6 mins IIRC before we even found our seats, it didn’t get any better.

    Great stadium BTW, air conditioned and the hotel next door was very handy. McFaddens Saloon is close by and the Faithful congregate there before and after losing.
