Tito, Hand me a tissue…
Since it’s slow around here waiting for the 49ers Schedule to be released today. I thought I’d share a certain Niner myspace page I have run across. I’d love to know where Dorsey got that headdress.
Before the start of the 1986 season, inspired by the Chicago Bears success with its song Super Bowl Shuffle, members of the San Francisco 49ers recorded the song We’re The 49ers. The song was released as a 45RPM single on Megatone Records. It mixed elements of R&B, funk, and pop. Vocals were provided by 49ers including Roger Craig, Dwight Clark and Ronnie Lott (Joe Montana and Jerry Rice were noticeably absent). While achieving some local airplay in San Francisco on radio stations like KMEL, it did not catch on nationally like the Super Bowl Shuffle had earlier in the year.

How could you Ray?
Ray Wersching, the retired San Francisco 49ers kicker who booted field goals in two Super Bowl victories, was indicted Wednesday on federal charges of embezzling $8 million from an insurance company and tax evasion.
Wersching, 55, the owner of Ray Wersching Insurance Agency in Redwood City, is accused of diverting premiums earmarked for Farmers Insurance from 1997 to 2000. He is also alleged to have evaded paying taxes on $3.6 million in corporate income from 1999 to 2000.
Wersching has been served with a summons to appear Monday in U.S. District Court in San Francisco before Magistrate Judge Bernard Zimmerman, said U.S. Department of Justice spokesman Luke Macaulay.
Wersching, an ex-University of California football star, faces five allegations—embezzlement; permitting a felon convicted of dishonesty to participate in an insurance business; failing to file a corporate tax return; and two counts of tax evasion.
The penalties carry a range of prison sentences from one to 10 years, and fines of $250,000 plus restitution.
I recently read that Radar Pictures (Last Samurai) is working on a movie titled ‘Lucky’s Last Stand.’ What does this have to do with the 49ers you might ask, well here is the plot summary of the show:
The story concerns a one-legged homeless man who finds a special, cleated, wooden leg that enables him to become the new star kicker for the San Francisco 49ers.
My guess is that the screenplay was written when the Niners had the kicking trio of Chandler, Cortez, and Pochman. If not for Nedney, I’d give Lucky a shot.
Since it is a slow news day, I figured I’d take a page out of the ‘What the Hell Were The Niners Thinking’ department, and take a trip down memory lane. Most Niner fans know of this debacle, and some don’t. We flashback 15 years ago to 1991. The Niners announced Carmen Policy as the new team president, and for some reason decided it was time to spruce up the Niner logo, did they ever. Not sure whose idea it was (hopefully they were fired) but they unveiled this new piece of crap logo that looked like a 3rd grader made it using nothing but construction paper. Anyway lets just say that the logo wasn’t a hit and Niner fans voiced their displeasure. 24 hours later the ’one day’ logo was no more.
I think we all need to take a moment and thank everyone of those fans that voiced their concerns. I know I thank you.
