I've seen him at the local market in town (we have only one); he couldn't have been nicer and stopped to chat with the folks that work there. Hard to find a more decent and humble guy. And even harder to find one as tough. I am so happy for him that he's been able to get back on the field and play -- and play well. Sometimes, nice guys don't finish last. Sometimes, they get to beat the Steelers.

I used to live in Redwood City and my favorite running route was Cañada Road, Edgewood Park. Roberts Market and Liquor store? Are you on Woodside Road itself or off Kings Mountain Road?

This is the best Team MVP Tress Way video I've ever seen.

So glad the days are gone of cycling through special teams specialists.

I was listening on the radio here that the 49ers are going to key in trying to take away the passes to McKissic. Our running game needs get going without Gibson.

Sounds easy enough.

If Hopkins can finish the year on a good note that is great. Im just not convinced he can because of one game. Hope so. Hate to waste recourses on another kicker.

I live in Woodside Glens off of Canada Road. But I know those areas you've mentioned really well; Woodside is a small place after all. Went to Roberts 2 hours ago, and that's where I saw Alex Smith. And I spend my free time cycling, and ride by his house on virtually every ride. I ride up over the Santa Cruz to Pescedero and San Gregorio, and usually come back down King's Mountain. Where are you these days? And can you believe that WFT plays an away game v. SF and we can't go see it? Bummer.

Of course he doesn’t, he’s on the Barry White “Love Tour”. Full of shit.

"And in his last two contests, Hopkins is 5-for-5 on field goals and 7-for-7 on extra points."

Get what you are saying, but it's not one game. If he is truly over the hump, then as Rivera showed with Gano, a bit of faith from the HC could go a long way. If he keeps it up, ST's are not a problem.

He's not wrong when he says the people he had beef with are gone though, his issues were with Allen and Larry Hess.

So yeah I believe him that he's moved on. Once this week is over I look forward to not having to hear his opinion about his exit.

Special teams have been really great minus hopkins bad games. Hey a kicker is literally the least of our worries but a worry none the less. Im not going to get giddy over 5 fg’s in a row or 7 ep’s. I truly hope he stays hot and clutch. Good for RR if he was able to set him straight. Definitely shows he is paying attention to every detail of this team. Long time to go until next season and obviously will be competition for him to keep his job. Until then I hope he hits every damn kick. They might be extremely important heading down the stretch!

I’ve never been a Jerry Rice fan for reasons like this, he was a prima donna.

Gibson officially ruled OUT against San Fran, as expected.

I mean, Jerry Rice sounds like a shithead for his Alex Smith comments but I'd love to know what he thinks of Alex now.

He's not wrong in his criticism, Smith's early years were fairly average until he blossomed when the 49ers went 13-3. I think we can all agree Smith is not HOF-bound, but I would garner there is legit buzz about renaming the CPOTY award after him (probably after he retires if I had to guess).

Rice is just an asshole because that's one of those things where it's better to just keep your mouth shut. No need to blame Alex Smith either when the entire organization was dysfunctional in those days before Jim Harbaugh arrived.

Also I'm curious, would you not want Jerry Rice on your team because he liked to talk? There aren't many receivers I'd tolerate for their mouth and self-centered attitude, but Rice is the exception.
