Football season

As Kabo and I are big niners' fans, we will post occasionally our thoughts on the team if we feel the need. I realize anyone who reads this blog cares nothing for football, so you'll just have to ignore it.
One thing that I would like registered is our thoughts about the niners' first round draft pick last year.
A little history first-The niners were the worst team in the league last year because of many problems. We blame mostly the offensive line, coach dumbass, and the secondary that couldn't stop 3rd and 14's all season long. What we both agree the problem was not though was QB Tim Rattay. He was injured for some games but did really spectacular I thought in his debut season.
So having the first pick in the draft, what do the niners do? Well they draft a QB because obviously solving an arguable problem is better than solving definite problems. They then proceeded to blow $49.5 million on an unproven player, Alex Smith, who is replacing a guy who will be a good QB in this league.
Now how did they both do respectively in the first preseason game? Well Smith got the start and was amazing. The whole first half they scored 0 points while he blew all of his drives going 3/9 for a measly 25 yards.
Now when Rattay got in for the second half, he promptly went 6/8 for 103 yards and 2 touchdowns. The niners went on to win the game 21-13 over the Raiders of Shit town.

I am not going to say, "I told you so" just yet but I think it will emerge that this was a complete dumbass move to pick Smith and then cough up a billion dollars for him. Rattay is the real deal, you watch people!

Hey and just in case you think I am making this theory up right now, it is logged in a comment at cbssportsline right after the pick was made.
