Well, they did it! They signed that missing piece from the soon-to-be dynastic 49ers. They signed their placekicker! Robbie (I’m good as gold, just ask me) Gould signed a 4 year, $19 million deal to remain with the 49ers. Well, it’s actually a guaranteed 2-year deal that the team can bail on.
Crazy thing is, he isn’t the highest paid kicker. That distinction belongs to the Ravens Justin Tucker. He makes a cool $5 mill a year. What seemed like a barely veiled ploy by Gould to get more money, we,, he got it. And, as long as everyone is happy, hey it’s all water under the bridge. As Winder said, it’s now one less thing to worry about. I would have preferred a draft pick or 2, but as noted, everyone’s happy.
In other important news, Jimmy G has been cleared to fully participate in training camp.
Forty Niners Forever 
Crazy run they are on. Wonder if they change their minds about trading Bummie and Smith. They could end up being buyers. A better 2nd baseman would be nice.
Hard to get rid of Bum after yesterday. But it all depends on what we can get. It is a rare run we are having. Been a very fucking long time.
Wow. They did it again tonight. Amazing.
Sometimes you just get lucky
Not today however. barring a huge comeback.
Yeah, we got stomped pretty good. It was fun while it lasted.Nice to see some backups contributing.
With the doubleheader on Monday against the Rockies, and the extra inning madness against the Mets, the Giants played the equivalent of over nine games in the last seven days.
Now they play the Cubbies, while their wildcard rivals all play schmucks. If the magic continues, they’ll muddle through (Don’t Get Your Dauber Down!) But don’t sweat it if they lose some ground in the next few days.
Great win today though. Yaz and Dickerson have really brought power to a lifeless outfield. Great to see the rookies do well today.
Another tough gutty win! Giants are on fire.
They are really playing some good tough ball right now. I don’t think they will let Bum go and I don’t really think he wants to. I am so happy for the team right now.
This Aussie Chick Orianthi ain’t half bad….
