    I think TMO has a deal where they will give you a free little box that hooks to your internet and gives you service for your situation. At least I am pretty sure Legere mentioned something to that effect in between hurling insults at the other carriers last time he spoke.

    Yeah, no one around here is doing that. The 49ers fans are complaining about the officiating in general and citing some examples from their team because that is the game they watched. No one here is claiming the league is out to get the 49ers, what do we look like, Seahawks fans?

    The problem isn't one team getting screwed and another team not. The problem is the amount of wrong calls, and the huge impact they have on the results of a game, are making the game tough to watch.

    Cheese is about to (or already has) hit an all time record high as well. I think some of it is related to China. They killed of a shit ton of cows a while back and beef/dairy has been skyrocketing ever since.

    Yes, it will be very hard to convince your wife of this, but don't buy any baby clothes. Bitches love shopping for baby clothes so you will end up with a ton of them. We will have to do several outfit changes a day in order to get our daughter into all the newborn clothes we ended up with at...

    Yeah, you are going to have to balance service with price. VZW has the best service in my area, but we pay less than $150 a month for 5 lines (Unlimited Talk/Text and I think 1gb of data per line) on TMO. I do miss VZW's service but I don't miss their bill. I have no problem paying a premium for...

    I agree with pretty much all of this. Their secondary has actually been suspect for a couple years now but their pass rush was so damn good it covered for it. It is pretty obvious that the 4 man rush isn't going to cut it with Bowman and A. Smith out and unless they embrace the blitz their...

    49ers D/ST could be down 2 starting CB's going against Marshall/Jeffery (in addition to being down their best LB and best pass rusher). Rams might not be as bad as the week 1 results, but that offense isn't going to do them any favors and even the best defenses will get burned given enough time...

    I was saying he looked good in the pre-season. Not trying to throw too much hyperbole out after one game against a terrible defense, but Hyde looking like basically a more explosive version of Gore. Hyde looked good in pass protection as well, as a matter of fact, a hell of a lot better than...

    It is a shell of it's former self. Missing their best pass rusher and best line backer (yeah, I said it) going into the game. Now down 2 starting CB's? Offense is going to need to carry this team through the first 1/2 of the season. Edit: nm, Romo Niners defensive MVP

    Foster was the 2nd round and I agree, was ranked way higher than he should have been. Thankfully the value I got for Lacy makes up for that but my RB corps would look way better if I were present. Oh well, more important shit was going on.

    Hopefully now that Morris doesn't have to deal with Shananigans he should see the end zone more often this year. Outside of that he has been a solid producer.

    Looks like the Niners are going into the season with just 3 RB's, one of which may also be on kickoff and/or punt return duties. Probably a direct result of the fact that Gabbert has looked so bad they felt like they needed to keep 3 QB's. Should also be interesting to see what the depth chart...

    Well their secondary is basically completely turned over. But then again I always thought their secondary was mediocre and carried by the pressure brought by the d-line anyways so maybe the change will be for the better.
