Apparently the Brandon Aiyuk saga will be played out via instagram. In the immortal words of Gil-Scott Heron, the disintegration will be livestreamed. He appears to want to show the world that he is not mentally fit to be playing football any time soon. Let alone physically ready.

He’s tweeting (gramming?) all kinds of mumbly screeds calling the team stupid and scared for . . . for . . . for what I’m not really sure. he said the team ‘took the ball and went home’ when he’s the one who is doing just that. He reneged on a deal he held out for and then signed. BA has burned all the bridges in front of him, behind him, and under him. Then he posts a video of himself speeding past Levi’s stadium at a brisk 104 MPH. That’s some four-dimensional stupidity right there.

(side note – the Santa Clara DA issued an arrest warrant for reckless driving or some shit. 6 months later!)

If he expects the team to do ANYTHING remotely in his interest, he’s deluded beyond belief. The 49ers will likely hold on to him until training camps starts. If he doesn’t make an appearance, the 49ers will commence with the $50,000 per day fines for not showing up to camp. That ought to go over well.

This looks like it will be a media-driven pile of hype-laden shit, but if I’m the 49ers front office, I would just continually say “I hope BA gets the help that he so obviously needs.”
