Niners franchise…….. No one?

With free agency set to begin in the NFL this week, most teams were busying deciding which one of their key players to franchise and which ones to sign to long term deals.
Thank God the Niners don’t have to worry about things like that. They don’t have anyone worth franchising. Well, they have 2 great players, Gore and Willis, but they are both locked up so there is no need to franchise either of them. Since the other 50 players all suck, nobody was franchised.
The 49ers had no free agents worthy of the franchise tag.
The good news is that the Niners are projected to be $25 million under the cap and will be active in free agency. They also have the number 10 pick in the draft, which should get them a good player as well. Look for them to make a free agent signing fairly quickly after the free agency period begins this Friday.
At least were not as fucked at the Raiders.
Big shutout in Big D for Nabokov and the Sharks
February 24, 2009 by Doyers Suck · Leave a Comment
Evgeni Nabokov had more shots fired at his face than Jenna Jameson during a busy week, but he it didn’t matter as Nabokov came up big for the Sharks Monday night in Dallas. He stopped all 29 shots that were fired at him and threw up another shutout for the Sharks.
Even Jenna Jameson couldn't have survived 29 shots fired at her face, but Evgeni Nabokov could.
Devin Setoguchi scored the Sharks only goal in the 3rd period to break the scoreless tie and keep the Sharks with the best record in the NHL.
The Sharks were slow to the puck overall during this one, but still came away with the win thanks to Nabokov.
Next up for San Jose is a showdown with Western Conference power Detroit. Should be a great one!
Wow. Did we really just lose to the Clippers?

Man… last night sure sucked the fat one. Heading into last nights game I was feeling pretty good. The Warriors have been playing good basketball lately, Marco and Andris are back and best of all we were playing against Baron Davis and the Clip show, oh and I also had them on the line for ESPN’s streak to a million.
The game started off so well too, up 25-11 with about 5 minutes left in the first quarter… I was sure I was going to have a nice easy relaxing night… that was until Baron hit a classic Baron 3, with no time on the shot clock and 2 guys on him. After that… well, it was ugly. Baron started actually trying (probably the only game this year he has even remotely tried in) and Eric Gordon wouldn’t miss a shot. For a terrible shooting team we sure made them look good (but we make every team look good). Our D was atrocious and our offense wasn’t much better.
All said and done, I started feeling better when I thought about it… I mean, who really cares how we finish the season. I know they want to finish strong but it isn’t going to do anything except give us a worse pick. I’d rather Nelly keep going with the youngsters so we can see a little more or Randolph, Morrow and Belinelli. It also would be great of Brandon Wright ever came back, what the fuck happened to him? His arm fall off? As much as it sucks losing to Baron, cause he is a little bitch, its all good, the dubs are still a better team that the Clippers and next year were going to impress.
Raiders re-sign Lechler and Asomugha to big $

The Raiders threw out some big time money this off-season. Making Shane Lechler the highest paid punter of all time and giving Nnamdi Asomugha enough money he can start his own religion. The only good news about these deals are that they are for proven players. Usually the Raiders start throwing money out at anyone with a big name. I’m surprised they haven’t traded for Vick yet. I’m about 90% sure, that if something happens with JaMarcus Russell, they will get Vick.
