Chip Kelly explicitly said during the preseason that Kaepernick was one of the two best quarterbacks on Niners’ roster. If Kaepernick was in any danger of being cut, it would have been because of years of acrimony with the GM.

Seriously.

You have no idea how relieved I am to read that.

That karma tho.

Baalke?

But that’s every weekend, though.

But are they panicking? No, of course not. This was a carefully considered and deliberately taken step to improve the team. (I know I would panic if I was running a team and their record was the same as the Niners’--but that’s neither here nor there.)

Yes. Yes, I did.
(You’re welcome, by the way.)

“We’re gonna be a country that makes product again.”

Great; good to know.

Eating at Arby’s or the friendship?

“Buck says he has not had a hair-plug treatment since 2011, but has not ruled out having another one” (emphasis mine).

Can someone explain their utter refusal to have Kaep [sic] play while keeping him on the team?

This moment was the angriest I got as a Niners fan watching the game. Because, apparently, I’ve reached acceptance with Blaine Gabbert.

26/27ths of a no-hitter to boot.

Admitting it is the first step, I hope, because damn.

I’m sure Barry wouldn’t have, but I have to think a fair number of people would’ve blamed Showalter if Britton pitched the 11th and the Orioles ended up losing in, say, the 13th.

Yeah, I gotta be honest: I was more impressed with that goal.

And there are plenty of schools of literary criticism that regard it as at best reductive to interpret texts via the author’s personal history. Presuming that we ‘need’ this information presumes a very particular approach to literature.
