Was the Singletary era the most drama-laden niner team in history?

Balmer, M-Rob, and Mike Lewis were all cut, I believe.

Agreed with this. Singletary's first coaching hire and the only decent name he could attract was Linehan who turned him down on the 2nd interview.....for the Lions.
Huge "WTF" moment there. Not to mention, that it was actually due to the revitalization on offense that he was even offered the permanent job.

I still want to know the truth about the pulling the pants down in the locker room. What could he have possibly said to pull down his pants?

As I recall, he was saying that we're getting our asses handed to us or something along those lines.
So...boxers or briefs?

Joe Thomas dismantling the team and trading for nothing (first rounder for OJ) was more dramatic but with fewer incidents. Of course he made it easy to like Bill Walsh two years later.

Allright my fellow fans lets get down brass tacks! It all starts with Mr D and his sister Mrs york. Mr D Sr LOVED his son, sister was left out! She waits and waits to show daddy he is wrong. Mr D F's up and sister takes team. Sr is RIP by now so to get back she runs team into the ground. Take that Eddy!!! Then comes along Jeb But But But mommy!! daddy!! I love the 9ers Please Please Pleeeeeeeeease let me have the team...... Please
. Ok they said but dont win or spend any $ Or elce.. Ok Ok I wont said Jeb. Then I think Jeb grew a pair!! He started readin the webzone, herd what the fan base was sayin and told himself I can make a winner of this team and I belive he started that with Harbaugh. Front office and staff. Its like Jurasic Park spare no expence. Go 9ers!!! Hows that for drama.

Quality over quantity dude. Although Sing's 49ers had a ton of little problems, none of them gripped the entire nation the way the JOE MONTANA - STEVE YOUNG QB controversy did. That was some serious s**t right there.

-First niner in history (I believe) to ever get booed by all of Candlestick
-Singletary punks Alex on air on the weekly
-Singletary ''dag gummit '' rant
-Lewis wants to get traded or he'll quit football.
-Sing gets pist about a mole in the locker room
-We almost beat the defending super bowl champs in week two.
-Crabs and Vernon fight over a tranny looking reality star
-Mrob and Balmer get traded to Seattle , almost as if Carroll wants some info on our playbook
-Zak Keasey gets cut in a ridiculous maneuver!
I don't know about all that exactly. I'll need to look at the film.

The V.Davis drama was well deserved,he was quickly becoming T.O part 2
Vernon is a much better person thanks to Sing
The Singletary drama overall was ridiculous-just a horrible HC,but as a person he's a good man and of course a HOF'er
Excited about JH-go Niners!
