Then I have lost all respect for the NFL.

It's bad enough that they've gone all sissified in regard to tackling.
With today's protective gear, injuries resulting from hitting shouldn't be a problem. Imagine if they were still wearing the leather helmets.
I might just turn my attention to Rugby. That's a man's sport with no protective gear other than socks.
Football seems to be filled with nothing but overpaid prima donnas anymore.

NFL football draft starts tomorrow:

The 2014 NFL Draft will be the 79th annual meeting of National Football League franchises to select newly eligible football players."…

Only the first round of the draft occurs on Thursday.

Traditionally, Day 1 picks are the players most would expect to make an immediate impact. From the moment the Houston Texans select—or trade—the top pick, the majority of the NFL universe will have their eyes glued to the television or social media.

Teams have 10 minutes to make their selections.

So if you're a New England Patriots fan, you may be waiting until around 11 p.m. ET—or later—for the Pats' 29th overall pick.

Place your bets...who takes Johnny football?

Jacksonville or Cleveland
Both teams have been horrible at the position, both teams need to make a splash
for their fan-base.

The Jaguars and Browns making good picks are a surprise.

Is that really his name? What were his parents thinking? Let's just call him Bill.

The 6'1", 208-pound safety, according to Alabama's official website, will eventually make NFL headlines for far more than his unusual first name, which is actually Ha'Sean (pronounced Ha-Seen). He merely goes by the nickname his grandmother started calling him at the age of three, Ha Ha, according to Andrew Gribble of The Birmingham News.

Still....

what was grandma thinking

Niners sealed up our qb, picked up Carlos Hyde. Great offseason.

I cannot wait to exact revenge.

And we will.

WE WILL!

I remember when I was new here, the niners stunk. People mocked them, easy win, etc.

Now there is a respect for them, a fear of them...Rightfully so. A proven coach who took a 5 win team to the NFC champs and the superbowl, a young qb whos skills cannot be denied, he has proven he can be a leader.
An ownership (finally) willing to spend money.

Respect, I always wanted them to be respected, check that off the list, now I want them to be feared!


WE ARE COMIN FOR YOU SEACHICKENS!!!!
