I imagine Trent Baalke is dusting off his resume about now ...

[Auggie]

Baalke is the Phony Niners GM ... same guy that fired Harbaugh.

1. Meanwhile, Chip Kelly may have to implement plan 'B'

Christian Ponder. Seriously, he has some good stuff, and by all reports, he's a player's player, and he may be the only person able to rally the team and turn things around, for what little good it will do.

3. There would be riots in the streets

everywhere outside the Bay Area. Although it has received almost zero media coverage , it appears that Kaep has been all but canonized, for reasons obviously having nothing whatsoever to do with his play.

4. Unless Ponder can play defense

I still don't think the 49ers would have won their last 2 games. They kept it close at halftime til their D collapsed in the 2nd half.

Besides all the 49ers have is Jeremy Kerley and Torrey Smith.

2. Are there any Walmarts opening around Santa Clara?

That might need greeters?

I am actually considering doing the paper bag thing when next I go out in public.

edit: You do, of course, realize that they have only one competitor for the coveted No. 1 draft pick at this point.

[Auggie]

5. Oh yes ...

last time they drafted first and second the Phony Niners took Alex Smith and the Clowns took Braylon Edwards.

6. That's working out okay for Kansas City

[Auggie]

7. That's just the problem ... it's working "okay"

Years back trumad posted that Smith would never win a Super Bowl. It was a ballsy statement, but pretty damned astute. I wouldn't have made it. But trumad was right. Smith is "okay" with a good team around him. But he'll never be anything other than that. And to think the Niners could have had Aaron Rodgers.
