Everybody send Frank Gore a "Get Well Soon" card

That's because he is all we've had. It's not his fault.
I...wow.

I've perused the threads on this place for years, and very few have come to the classlessness that some of you are showing right now.

I agree with 49erRider. You know, the whole point of sending him the get well card is predicated on a wish for his health to improve right? It really has very little to do with him getting back on the field in the short term future (he's out for the season, it's a sunk cost). When I get back to California for the winter, I'll definitely send him a get well card NOT JUST because he's my favorite 49er and he does a lot for the team, but also because I wish him good health. I'm not playing a sympathy card or trying to apologize for his poor plays (when he has had them).

You should all feel ashamed of yourselves for thinking that Gore hasn't done enough for this team. He's done everything in his power to please Singletary, Johnson, Rathman, his teammates, and you, the fans. Don't refuse to send him a card just because you dislike the way the coaching in managed or feel like the entire season has been lost because he's been the focal point of the offense.

Welcome.

Awesome first post. Please stay and post more.

Imagine if we actually do make the playoffs, I'd feel bad for Frank...

Yeah, because why should we we wish Frank well because his coach is a dud?


Do it for Frank. Nothing more, nothing less.

I quit reading this thread after Ceadderman's nonsense, but up to that point, the majority of the posters should be ashamed of themselves. Frank Gore is one of the few players that genuinely cares about the team you all root for, and when someone suggests doing something nice for him, you all see fit to crack jokes instead.

It's sad when people are actually relieved when their team's best player goes down (and yes, Frank Gore IS our best player this year) just because they have hope for a change of offensive game plans. The plan will be the same, just with different guys running the football that aren't as good as Frank Gore is. You're all fooling yourselves if you think the game plan is changing. Westbrook's 130+ yards rushing yesterday surely didn't help your wishes.

Bottom line is we're still going to be a running team under Singletary no matter who we have at runningback. The only difference now is if our line doesn't dominate the defenders like they did against Arizona, and they won't, our running game has absolutely no chance at success. Gore made the ball move even when the line didn't do a good job, for the most part. Westbrook and Dixon won't be able to do the same under those circumstances.


We will see more screens

At which point in this season did you see Singletary adapt to the circumstances? The answer has to be, none. At no point has he ever adapted. So, which part of that fact makes you think we'll see anything different? Even something as simple tossing more screens seems to be too much of a change in Singletary's philosophy.

If he finally adapts, great. But to actually believe he will before seeing it with your own eyes is setting yourself up for disappointment.

Yeah? Didn't he adapt last season?

I think firing Raye was adapting as well.

Oh wait didn't he "go with the hot hand" and keep Troy Smith as QB?

I'm not saying he will adapt. Just saying that it's more likely now. Didn't have to adapt against the Tards because their DT Line couldn't tackle a fat willing prostitute if they had a million bucks of mad money burning a hole in their pockets.

And dude don't get personal. You don't like what I have to say fine. But stop lying. You read every one of the posts in here and you know it. Stop talking BS and don't even mention my name. You don't like me (like I could give a truck) and I don't like you (same goes for you I bet), so be the bigger man here and don't mention my name.

I guess you could have just done like StOnE did and pled to my better nature but you have to stick a knife and twist it. You know what you can do with that mentality.

~Ceadder

Don't flatter yourself, big guy. I only mentioned your name because your post is literally what made me stop reading the thread. I skipped everything after the next post addressing yours and didn't read anything up to the point of my first post. LOL @ you trying to tell me what I did and did not read.

As for Singletary adapting.. I guess I should have been more clear. I was talking about the circumstances on the field, as in game plan adaptation. So he was forced to go with the "hot hand" in Troy Smith. You're seriously going to credit him for that? As if everyone else in the world didn't see that decision as obvious? And he adapted last year when going to a spread out offense.. which has what to do with my statement about him not adapting THIS SEASON?

By the way, firing Raye was done because Singletary needed a scapegoat. It was an attempt to save his job. If he didn't perceive his job to be on the line, no moves would have been made and you know it.

So, why don't you go ahead and tell me an exact time in which he adapted to the opposing offensive or defensive game plans this season. We've gone into games with a game plan that does not change even when it's clearly failing. Our own beatwriters have pointed that out, along with countless other people who are paid to write about football. Apparently, you've seen something nobody else has.

I never said he couldn't adapt. Do I think he will? No. I said thinking he will before seeing it happen is setting yourself up for disappointment because he hasn't done it to this point. We all know Nolan was stubborn, but Singletary has proven to be even worse.

OMG that would be awful for him. We'd finally make the playoffs and he doesn't get play that would be s**tty.

seriously dude its kind of sickening to see people acting like its a good thing Frank Gore is hurt. Frank is not only our best player, hes got the heart of a lion and he seems like a great person that really appreciates his shot at living his NFL dream unlike a lot of these overpaid assclowns that inhabit the NFL. above all of that the guy is a human being, im pissed Gore is hurt, you guys need to show some respect for the man. hes put everything he's got into this team, other guys on bad teams wouldve mailed it in but Frank gives us everything he's got everytime he laces up his cleats. its a damn shame for him to get this kind of s**t from fans.
I want to send Alex Smith my dirty underwear for ruining the 49ers franchise for the past 6 years.
