Yo... Moe

As a genral rule I don't get too involved in a team outside my Boyz but when the Niners traded up and gave away the store for a qb with limited experience I was intrigued. The more I learned about Trey Lance the more I was impressed and for a kid, he came across polished and mature. Plus he has a cannon for an arm. For weeks Shanahan has basically been saying Lance wasn't ready. Today during a presser he said, Lance has known the entire playbook since training camp and just needs experience. Well damn Kyle, ya think?

Send him to Pittsburgh........we'll take him;););)

The Niners adopted the Rams' credo that acquiring talent through the draft is overrated. They both are willing to trade future picks for a player or high draft pick in the current draft. It might have short-term benefit, but ultimately it will put both into rebuild mode sooner and longer than they want to be. I still don't know how the Rams are acquiring talent the way they do but those contracts are going to implode their roster in a big way in the next couple of years.

At least the Rams are [[or seem to be) acquiring talent.

The Niners have a bunch of over the hill gang, off the street veterans on one year deals.

Their talent can't seem to make it an entire season without missing multiple games because of injuries and there is the starting 27 million dollar, no trade clause QB who has been a Niner for 4 years, and probably played the best game of those years last night!

I think Lance could truly thrive under Tomlin. Wish I had the power to make it so.

Did you see anything about the "laziness" of one Dwayne Haskins?

This is exactly the opposite of the Steelers plan. And it has worked for them. You are spot on, Jerry!

Funny you mentioned it Moe. I was just reading about him. Checking his phone doing warmup....really?

Kid get's another chance and it seems he blowing it.

I realize it's all about the benjamins but Crypto.com Arena doesn't exactly roll off the tongue :p

Ms M, notice that the Steelers put a QB on their practice squad. J. Morgan......don't know anything about him. Need to read.

A quick search showed he was orginally drafted by the Jets. As soon as I saw that I moved on from the article...sorry LOL

The national media seems to be counting you guys out for SNF [[they have us as underdogs as well) and for that I've got your back. If you get Big Ben and Claypool back I think you guys will be fine.

Thank you for having my back!! Tomlin was very "even" in his press conference yesterday [meaning not hateful, accusing, etc].....just stating the facts. There's a good chance both [[as you said) Big Ben & Claypool come back. We were talking over the weekend who's the unsung hero for the Steelers. For me [& others] this is a no brainer......Cam Heyward.

Didn't want to come off like Warren Sapp because I thought that was disrepectful. If you don't know ask somebody or look it up before you put your foot in your mouth. Which is what I did.

Heyward has recorded 498 tackles, 93 tackles for loss and 62.5 sacks through 11 NFL seasons. Sapp finished his 13-year career with 578 tackles, 91 tackles for loss and 96.5 sacks.

That's an impressive record but unfotunately Moe, defensive players rarely get the glory unless they have long flowing hair....LOL.. and of course can play like a beast.:D

Yeah, the incident with braindead Warren Sapp was something!!

You also forgot.....unless they get their own Head & Shoulders commercial;)

unless they get their own Head & Shoulders commercial


hahahaha... And that too!

There's a rookie on the Niners [[Talanoa Hufanga) that seems to be gearing up to be the next Polamalu. Long flowing hair, Pacific Islander ethicity and from what I understand is friends with Polamalu. He's not bad, as a matter of fact pretty good for a rookie but I think right now he's getting more press than he really deserves at this point, but that's just me.

I think Troy P paved the way for all Samoans. One of the Steelers OLine is Samoan [Zach Banner]. A big dude. Unfortunately, tore his ACL in the first game last year & is only now coming back to play.

I like it when players reach back to pull their "brothers" up. I've always had respect for Polamalu and his hair;) so it's good to know he is looking out for the next generation.

Tonight will be an interesting game Jerry. Will you be watching?
This will be my frist time really paying attention to Mac Jones.

During the draft, watching him walk to the podium like Gomer Pyle turned me off. Can't wait to see for myself if he's all that and a bag of chips.

I could have sworn I posted a few minutes ago. hmmp

Anyhoo...Rise Up Dirty Birds. Love the helmets!

Just a little less than an hour into the game and I'm already bored.

Wait. There's a game tonight?

Who's playing?

Well, I either need to start doing drugs, imbibing heavily in alcoholic beverages, or give up on this season. For sake of my mental health [and marriage?], I'm going to stop watching Falcons games in 2021. No reason why I should care more than they appear to.

Ohhhhhh geez, Jerry. 25-0. I'm so sorry. Especially to the Patriots. On another subject: Antonio Brown & his possible fake vax card??

Buy a coloring book. It's a great stress reliever.:p

Moe I haven't heard about Antonio Brown, but if true it doesn't surprise.

Unfortunately Brown's past antics tend to make you believe the acusation but this story sounds a little shaky.

https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/...r-chef-alleges

If there's any truth to it, it's more than just a workplace violation, it's a violation of federal law.

Hi Ms M, Amari Cooper on the Covid List?

Yeah Jerry I had read something similar in another article. There is something about the story seems off to me. The chef decides to tell because he didn't get paid? Does that mean he would have kept his mouth shut if he HAD gotten paid? We shall see how this all plays out.



Moe I wish we were were going in with Amari but we still have CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup and Cedrick Wilson. I'm not in panic mode. I am concerned about his vaccination status though.

There's no honor among thieves.

correct jerry!!!!!!

And if given the choice I'd take CeeDee Lamb in a heartbeat.

Today, since I had some extra time today I went & saw "King Richard," the movie about the beginnings of Venus & Serena Williams & their father [as played by Will Smith]. I really liked the movie, & Will Smith did a great job!!

That's funny and true.

Again, based on Brown's prior history it would not suprise me if the story were true but when I look at this objectively, it's not fair to convict him on his past behavior so I'll wait to see how it all plays out.

One minute Cooper was the man, the next it was Lamb. The Boyz have a lot of talent on this team. As long as they stay focused they will be fine.

Apparently King Richard is a pretty good film. I watched an interview with Will Smith and Trevor Noah that made me rethink what I believed about Richard Williams. Sometimes, people are not always who you think they are.

I'm really looking forward to our game on Sunday. I've read, that simulating crowd noise, working on hand signals, and strengthening their communication skills is part of their prep this week. Whatever it takes Boyz, whatever it takes.

Oh and one more thing...

Hey-la-day-la my meme's are back:cool:

When the studio changed the distribution strategy for the movie, it affected how some of the actors would be paid. Will Smith opened up his personal checkbook and gave them bonuses to cushion the blow from the money they were going to lose. Every time Jada makes me think she's lost her mind, Will does something that humbles me. Love that dude.

Smith is thought to have received around $40 million for the film, and used his own money to give a little extra to cast members like Saniyya Sidney - who plays Venus Williams - and Demi Singleton - who plays Serena - as well as other co-stars Tony Goldwyn, Jon Bernthal, and Aunjanue Ellis.This isn't all that he's done, either.

According to one of his co-stars, Layla Crawford, who plays Serena and Venus' sister Lyndrea Price, Smith was handing out all sorts of gifts and treats whilst on set making the movie.

She said: "He gave us Polaroid cameras and different treats all the time. He's just such a generous and sweet person. He also gave us iPhone 12 Pro Max gifts in boxes.



"We ripped them open and everyone started crying. I literally cried my eyes out - it was the best gift ever. Will Smith is a blessing, I learned so much from working with him."

Jerry if you haven't seen this you might find it interesting. He not only talks about the film but his new memoir.
