I hate to say this, but I feel like Matts new employer has put too many restraints on him. His answers come off far to matter-of-fact. There is no speculation or sizzle.

I'm sure most of you will disagree, but really its just my opinion.

Actually, since he got this new job, I felt he's been a little more opinionated.

But I appreciate his and Barrows' "just the facts" approach. They're much more objective than the other reporters who follow the 49ers. Many of us scoffed when Maiocco predicted a 7-9(?) finish for us. He seems to have a very accurate understanding of the team.

When rumors fly around (like in Harbaugh's hiring process), I'll trust those two over anyone else. They have that credibility with me.

Exactly. Many beat writers throw s**t out there and hope it sticks.

One guy I've been really impressed with is David White. He first broke the story about Singletary getting fired.

Just listened to a replay of White saying there was no way the 9ers were getting Harbaugh because he was as good as signed with Miami. He was one of many who misjudged the situation but his certainty was based on?

Yeah, I'd be surprised if we got him back. I've always liked Lawson, but he's always been just a little bit away from being a real impact player.

Regardless, it's amazing you can type so well though!

I see your point, but I prefer facts and they only give opinions when asked. Too many times I'll read articles based more on opinion than facts and I'd rather draw my own conclusions, just facts please...from credible sources.

Watt is going to be a 3-4 DE, not a 3-4 OLB. Watt is 290 pounds.

Wouldn't that be something...a 290 pound WILL. Isn't Phillips going to now use Mario as his WILL?

Anyway, we do need a new WILL, too.

Unless he's a back up.

Seriously!

Goldson is a throw up to me. Yeeah, Goldson didn't do anything this past season, but that's also cos of him fighting injuries throughout the whole season. & Many people haven't mentioned that, so I'm guessing no one put that into consideration.

Plus, we all saw what he could do two seasons ago when he was healthy.

If he stays, fine. If he's signed elsewhere, good luck to him.

That's his role in the gamut of 49er coverage. He doesn't want to be a columnist. If you want opinions read Tim Kawakami or Lohel Cohn. He prides himself on providing fact and relevant commentary in an objective way. It's one of the reasons he is a stalwart on 49er coverage.
