Yeah, they were good when they were cheating the salary cap. They should go back to that.
I know what you're thinking now. You think we're all gay, don't you? Think we're all just a bunch of deviant lifestyle-living same-sex having motherfuckers, am I right?

Watch any of Mario Williams college sacks.. Lawson is the guy flushing the QB to Mario.
The 9ers have a proposal for a much needed new stadium. They have informed san fran that if they don't approve it they have the option to move to LA. Once they get a new stadium approved.. they will have more disposable income. They had a nice draft last year IF alex smith pans out. Vernon Davis is a freak and Lawson should step right into Petersons vacated place at OLB. Things are getting better.. but all 9er fans miss uncle eddie.
i hope they like it in la, then
according to the radio here, there is no chance of a new stadium
there is a big maybe about
starting one around 2011
I realise that I have a past to break with--an accumulation of inertia, wrong, foolishness, rot, junk. A great need of clarification, of mindfulness, or rather, of no mind. A need to return to genuine practice, right effort. Need to push on the great doubt. Need for the spirit. Hang on to the clear light.

On the surface, Bush got $300,000 less in guaranteed money than No. 1 pick Mario Williams. After factoring in the state and local taxes, the difference is more like $2.658 million.
$2.658 million!
And if the base package is $51 million over six years, the difference between the Williams deal and the Bush deal isn't $3 million. It's $7.59 million.
Because Tennessee likewise doesn't have an income tax on salary or wages, Bush's in-pocket money also is less than that received by Titans quarterback Vince Young, the No. 3 overall pick.
Young gets $25.74 million in guaranteed money. After state and local taxes, Bush comes out $1.898 million behind Young on that aspect of the deal.
Although several readers have suggested that Bush might not be smart enough to realize the extent to which he's gotten the short end of the stick based on the application of state and local tax laws, we have a feeling that he "gets it." Exhibit A? That witty sound bite he offered up upon arriving at the scouting combine in February.
"No state tax."
Beyond the money issue, Bush lost out on the prestige of being the first overall pick, and he'll be living in a city that is slowly (emphasis on ssssslowly) rebuilding from one of the worst natural disasters in American history.
Also, Bush is paying agent Joel Segal for a slotted deal that pretty much anyone with half a brain and NFLPA certification could have done (that now excludes Carl Poston on both counts). Ben Dogra and Major Adams did Segal's work by negotiating the contracts for the No. 1 and No.3 picks; once Young was signed all Segal needed to do was get a copy of both contracts and work out something in the middle.
Of course, if Segal gets fired by Bush now, it really doesn't matter much; Segal still gets his fee unless and until the deal is re-done.
Even if Segal agreed to take a fee of only one percent, that's $262,000 on the guaranteed money for three months of foot-dragging and two days of "work."

Freddie Keiaho is gonna get fucked because the colts didn't leave enough money in their rookie pool to sign him... sucks for that guy.
Mike Williams sitting out and Reggie sitting out would be a whole different set of circumstances. Reggie ain't sitting out though, so it is irrelevant.
