Possibly worst written article ever

I don't post often but had to post because of this guy's horrible article. Note coach Mike Harbaugh, Scott Tolzien our 2nd round pick, and that Scott Tolzien tossed up a pick and a touch down against the chargers for us to help us win the game. One quarterback exits, and another, younger quarterback enters. It's a tough league, this NFL. One day after releasing Josh McCown, the San Francisco 49ers have signed second-round pick Scott Tolzien as a backup to the starter, Alex Smith and his backup, Colin Kaepernick. Tolzien and Kaepernick are rookies. If Smith is injured, that means an untested captain takes the 9ers helm, according to SF Gate. Gate writer Eric Branch writes that Kaepernick had a 23.9 quarterback rating during the preseason. Tolzien went 16-40-23 for 226 yards, with one TD and one interception against the San Diego Chargers. That was the 49ers last pre-season game, and they won it 20-17. Tolzien is a Wisconsin grad -- and a Big Ten All-Academic standout, to boot. A good fit for a thinking-man's, more complicated West Coast Offense that head coach Mike Harbaugh instituted. http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/sports/49ers-Sign-Rookie-Quarterback-129255208.html This may get shut down quickly but I think it is very entertaining

Seems right in line with the national media who make comments about the 9ers without ever bothering to watch them play. Hate to hear negative comments made by idiots but it was even worse last year when, with Sngletary leading them, many of the same people predicted they would win the division.

Of course, you might expect a guy writing for nbcbayarea would have his ear to the local ground...naw! It's nbc! (NotBerryaCcurate).

My favorite part was when he wrote that Tolzien was 16-40-23 passing. I is confused.

Coach Mike Harbaugh lmao.......God I hope RJ Middleton just got fired, and his editor too. That was absolutely horrible journalism, grammatically or otherwise.
