So what if one guy was lighting the explosives and the other guy was just there watching and the guy watching died?

PS I'm not so sure what we're doing here anymore.

What if they were doing it underwater at night?

Socks on, or no?

They made the SB last year with a horrid defense. I guess that doesn't count though.

Ok, they went but he hasn't won them. Right after the first loss against the Giants the Pats seemed to take over the Colts' playbook of having a great offense but fluttering out in the playoffs.

[Nate505]

Call me a douche, but I doubt he forced his teammate who died to ride in the car with him.

They were out drinking together and were both at fault to similar degrees. It's even possible that the guy who died was happy his teammate would drive home so that he didn't have to be the drunken driver.

It's obviously terrible to drink and drive at all, but his friend dying was an accident. He's not a murderer or anything.

It would be 10x more upsetting to me if he had killed another driver or innocent party. I don't think you can count someone who gets into a car with a drunk person a completely innocent party.

Having said all that, it is weird they would have him on the sidelines.

I agree. There are times as a teenager when I would be in a car where the driver was on LSD or mushrooms, and so was I. It would have been just as much my fault as his if he would have caused a wreck, and I certainly knew what was going on (well, to the degree anyone does when they are on hallucinogenics).

Kaepernick doing his best to get Alex Smith some playing time tonight.

[UGLI baby]

Look who outplayed Brady. Did Kaepernick have some issues with taking the snap under center? Yes, but did you not notice the rain falling all game long? Kaepernick played great, and got the win on the road. The last time the Patriots lost at home in December was against the NY Jets on Dec. 22, 2002. This was a big win for the 49ers, and a great performance by Kaepernick. I'm very pleased.

Homer Alert!^

You just figured this out now?

Haha no.

FYI I'm now rooting against the Niners and think their decision to go with Kap will cost them a chance at a Super Bowl.

Kap WILL fuzz up during a big game in the playoffs.

Best hope for the Niners now is Kap getting hurt and Alex returning triumphantly to lead them to the Super Bowl and he wins Super Bowl MVP then becomes the highest paid QB in football next year and wins 3 Super Bowl titles in 5 years shattering every QB record known to man.

What sounds better, that^ or Kap's "upside"??

That's not going to happen. With 4 TD passes tonight Kaepernick already did something Smith never did. Smith had plenty of games with 3 TD passes, but never reached 4 in a game.

I 100% agree with this statement.

[NUMBERICA]

I wouldn't bet against the judgment of the best coach in the NFL by a mile. Whether its now or later, I believe Harbaugh has improved the odds of a 49er championship. Maybe it costs them this year, or maybe the "upside" of Kaep in addition to his legs make him better even this season.
