    The 49ers' 1986 draft was one of the most productive in the history of the league, from top to bottom.

    At what point does he come clean vis a vis his like or dislike for green eggs and ham?

    Very true. Unfortunately, we're probably going to see 29 more of these by tomorrow morning...

    Unless a coach says something controversial, there's no story.

    It would have to be an Ochocinco type, someone who will do anything for a headline. I would hope even he wouldn't stoop to those levels.

    Are you trying to be funny, or was that an actual headline?

    All a reporter would need to do is troll somebody like Chris Culliver for the negative reaction, or someone who has been outspoken in the past.
    I see Vilma has already said he would be uncomfortable showering with a gay man.

    Don't know if it was a headline. And don't try to insinuate I was being insensitive. I just played off the green eggs post a few ahead of mine.

    I'll all for Sam's success in the NFL of which he'll have plenty.

    Te'o came into the league with baggage and it was forgotten pretty quickly when he showed he could play.

    I think he has serious codependency and identity issues.

    Don't you think that kind of died down, though, once it was pretty clear that he was the dupee, not the duper?
