I'd give him ownership of the team, let him take a year off to spend with his family, anything. Mike Holmgren would be the Barack Obama to the 49er brass' 8 year neocon fuckup machine.

I'd say he's more likely to do something with the Packers than with the 49ers in a few years.

@2, next year's coach will be Jim Mora Jr. Have you been living under a rock or something?

at least no more than curling. its all about the sport a person grows up liking, whether it is boring. like Golf on TV. beyond words boring to me, but they have entire stations dedicated to it.

Go Rays. F-ck Pat Gillick.

Mariners in 2012.
