Let's not name him-he is playing good and don't want to curse him as he has just started playing and not a full season. Plus why does aplyer naeed a nickname? You want to be like Philly and put a Dream Team curse on us and turn it into a nighmare?

Most, if not all, of the personnel moves made on defense made us better.

Good job Baalke!

There was much discussion about letting Franklin walk.

He hasn't done squat with NO. Is he even starting? We Franchised him before the last season and he was going to make 7 million a year. He signed his tender at the last minute and came into camp late. I was never impressed with him last year AT ALL and thought he was a stiff. I was ready to let RJF give a go. He wanted a huge multi year deal and Baalke didn't give it to him.

Instead, they move ICE back from DE to NT. (If you listen to Haloti Ngata --they ask him is he a NT, DE, DT -- he says "DT" and they compare him to Suh). Ice played NT when he first played (after his back injury) and was a bit overwhelmed as a 2 gap young NT. ICE is showing that he can be a dominant 1 gap NT (and a good FB to boot). I want his nickname to be ICEBERG because it sunk the Titanic and it can sink your defense.

I loved Spikes' fire and how he came here as FA and played his MFin a$$ off for 3 years. He mentored Willis and played great. Now, Bowman is such an upgrade over Spikes' it aint even close. #52 #53 -- they are like clones. HOW IN THE HELL IS IT LEGAL TO CLONE WILLIS. Yet we did and Bowman is going to be a stud just like P Willy. P Willy is taking Bowman under his wings. When Suggs joined the Ravens, there was some tension with Ray / Ray but that is no longer an issue. #52 / #53 are going to be best ILB tandem the league has seen, barring injury.

We locked up RayMac and he's a stud. The ICEBERG isn't just some fat guy clogging up the middle. Bowman is a revelation, paired next to a player that has played his position better than anyone that has come before him.

Im always down for a new name and I hope Iceburg and Bowman keep improving to where there never a quetion mark on our squad.

I always knew Iceburg "Sopoaga" had good strength but never understood why he was never given NT over A. Franklin expially when Franklin wanted money he didnt deserve. So far from what I see he is steping up and forming into a very good NT and maybe one of the best. Keep it up Iceburg... I mean Sopoaga and maybe retailers will start selling neckless after you.

SF has something special when we can let loose two top speed MLB and make tackle's anywhere on the field. Its one thing to have an elite LB but what is the chances of having two or should i say even three. I know im jumping the gun, but why not assume this time... Rice tought Owens and why not hope that Bowman cant become Pro Bowl Material from Willis.

Jim Harbaugh and gang are doing great and Im glad to see what he is doing and will be doing in S.F.
