It's also quoted in the article that I posted a few days ago.  Just remember the 65% refers to the 50 person package, and there are only 8 cabanas.  8 cabanas * 9 games * 65% = 46 units sold out of 72 available.  I'm guessing that the November / December packages aren't exactly in a bidding war.  ;D


Oehser mentioned today that the pools will be heated in November and December.

True.  But how warm are a speedo, mullet and AYCD domestic beer soaked nerve endings gonna keep you when the outside temps are in the mid 40's?  ;D

Sooo... now I am imagining the NBC Camera man zooming in on this guy... wearing a speedo, standing up in the pool, holding a Bud... it will make Sports Center every week...

In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

That's been a pretty popular sports GIF around the country for some time. Maybe 5 years or so.

Interesting side note. That guy is actually mildly handicapped. Probably a mild case of MS or Cerebal Palsy or something similar.

This falls in that grey area between "Other NFL News" and "The Jacksonville Jaguars", but either way, here's an update on our 1st round practice field hero....

Gabbert strengthens his grip on the backup job in San Francisco

Posted by Mike Florio on June 21, 2014, 2:01 PM EDT

Earlier this year, noted quarterback whisperer Jim Harbaugh took on perhaps his biggest reclamation project yet when the 49ers traded for a failed top-10 pick who had fallen far out of favor in Jacksonville.


Blaine Gabbert, former Jaguar, arrived in San Francisco in March.  Via Matt Maiocco of CSNBayArea.com, Gabbert has emerged through offseason workouts as the primary backup to starter Colin Kaepernick.

"I just came in here and tried to put my best foot forward every day and really enjoy the process and get better on a consistent basis," Gabbert said, via Maiocco. "That's what you look for in the spring — just consistent improvement and getting comfortable in the offense and with the new surroundings and the new guys you're working with."

Part of getting comfortable includes asking questions.  The team likes the questions he's asking."[I'm] excited about Blaine," offensive coordinator Greg Roman said this week to Harbaugh while Roman wore a microphone for the team's website.  "He asks all the right questions."

He may end up having all the right answers, if the 49ers ever need to use him.  Drafted nearly a full round before Kaepernick, Gabbert was deemed to have far more potential than the man he now sits behind on the depth chart.

Who knows that the future will hold?  If Harbaugh can do with Gabbert what Harbaugh has done with others, Gabbert could become what everyone expected him to be in 2011.

And if, say, Kaepernick gets injured and Gabbert comes in and plays extremely well and Harbaugh decides to stick with the guy with the hot hand and Gabbert takes the team deep into January, maybe Kaepernick will get the Alex Smith treatment.

Someone had 'found' the gif that is your profile.

Just pointing it out, nothing else.

I know. 

I keep saying that I'm not a Gabbert apologist, but I my comments suggest otherwise.  I guess I'm still hopeful for the kid.  I really think that he has the skills to be a great QB, he was just thrown into a shitty situation, and he didn't exactly help himself with his play on Sundays.  I know everyone's tired of the Alex Smith comparison, but we'll see.  ;)

Gabbert has mental issues when it comes to the NFL. Every coach brags about his physical tools. The mental part is harder to correct. Hopefully he catches on one day,. anyways, what you think about the times union calling blackmons mom trying to get information about in? They are so over the top sometimes, to me anyways. Let the young man go through what hes going through and deal with his situation

All of the panels are up on the south endzone scoreboard. Now to start adding panels on the north scoreboard.

Any idea what the white spot is on the south scoreboard? I noticed it appeared shortly after installing one of the panels... was it damaged by a swinging piece?
