SHOUTBOX MONSTER!

Wow. Great points. I'm convinced.

Great thread. I admit I work with wine daily and am trusted with recomendations so I kinda know my stuff. I'm typically a fan of big Austrailian reds and Californian cabs with a few Zins once in a while. Nothing like a great shiraz that is nice and jammy with hints of cocoa, fruit, and coffee notes too maybe. If anyone is wondering where to start, there is no right answer. Just start buying lots of different bottles to try (definitely start cheap) and even if you love a wine, move on to something new. That wine will always be there to go back to, but you never know if there is something else you may like more. Try different wine regions, too. You'll find out quickly that there are huge differences between old world and new world wines. (I'm a fan of new world, i.e., Aussy, US, mainly because you don't get as much earthy-ness and you usually get more fruit.) Hopefully someone will find that useful.

It's not Tommy's fault at all. Darcy and Quinn are the ones to blame. Why anyone would think that TG would have any input in the on ice product is insane. He didn't even follow the sport before he bought the swordsmen. This thread is absurd.

Jenkins is actually smaller than Moulds by a bit. He's not going to be what we're looking for, as far as a bigger target for the red zone. However, I think he's going to shine as ST'er this year. He just has a knack for that.

#10 on his jersey, #3 on the depth chart, and #1 in our hearts.

I live in Maryland and I have season tickets, so... yes. I had made the trip to at least one game every year since '92 and it just escalated from there.

Reed played well last year. He made some big catches, even if he happened to disappear at other times.

That has happened in Buffalo before, too. As well as plenty of other arenas.

But to his credit, he never said Poz was the 12th pick. Just "the" pick. So he's going to be right, regardless.

That was definitely Terrell Davis. You think the media would actually hire TO to conduct interviews?

Ryan and Mair are both UFA's as well. Plus, Vanek, Roy, Paille, Paestch, and Peters are RFA's and will need tenders or long-term deals. Basically, the future does look bright still, but they won't have much money to play with after taking care of the RFA's and any UFA's they decide to keep.

Darcy is not going to talk contract now, but I'm not sure if you were implying that or not. I do believe it would be a distraction for one player to know he's coming back and won't have to worry about his contract, while the other guy has to know he will be someplace completely different after the season ends. Plus, how will their teammates respond? At the same time, if the Sabres are able to deal Kalinin and Kotalik (both are way overpaid and over-rated), they will at least have some wiggle room and they could potentially put contracts on the table for both Drury and Briere.

Sorry about the delay. Had a late class. SF selects John Wendling, DB from Wyoming

Why the hell would they talk contract now? This is the worst possible time for it. Not only would it be a distraction, but it would certainly tell the other guy that he's as good as gone. Don't give them contracts yet. Give them the opportunity to earn a bigger offer in the playoffs. The season will end (at the latest) in early June. July 1st is the start of free agency and that is when Darcy can worry about it.

SF selects Jacoby Jones, WR, Lane College

The 'Niners select Quinn Pitcock, DT, from THE Ohio "We-lost-2-National-Championships-in-a-3-month-period" State University.

I don't think Minnesota is here.

There are quite a few rumors that Atlanta wants him. Talk about a difference in style from your starter to your backup.

I have a question. There are four supplemental picks at the end of round 3 this year. Are these going to be included in our mock?

SF selects LB Patrick Willis, Ole Miss.

Give me one example of a player of his character to come from that "school" recently. They are all "me" guys.

No. Miami. Players. Please.

I'll take the 'Niners.

I'm fairly content with mine... Old style... 52 Blue Holecek 12 Blue Kelly 78 Blue B. Smith 81 White P. Price New Style... 11 Blue Bledsoe (Changed the name with whiteout so it reads "Roscoe") 36 White Milloy 7 White Losman 7 Throwback Losman 71 Throwback Peters (My newest and for a decent price thanks to that online code)

Good points. I just didn't comprehend that from your first post. I think Poz will be a decent NFL starter, but taking him at 12 would be a mistake.
