Gregg Williams apparently didn’t care that a documentary filmmaker was recording his speech before the playoff game against the 49ers, and boy, is it a doozy.

Every single one of you, before you get off the pile, affect the head. Early, affect the head. Continue, touch and hit the head…

We need to decide whether Crabtree wants to be a fake-ass prima donna or he wants to be a tough guy. We need to find it out. He becomes human when we f***in’ take out that outside ACL. We need to decide how many times we can beat Frank Gore’s head.

I’m sure the Louisiana state Senate feels dumb right about now. Or not.

Deadspin on Kyle Williams, concussions, and the NY Giants

Devin Thomas, who recovered both fumbles, told the Star-Ledger “he’s had a lot of concussions. We were just like, ‘We gotta put a hit on that guy.’ [Tyler] Sash did a great job hitting him early and he looked kind of dazed when he got up. I feel like that made a difference and he coughed it up.”

This is a fascinating angle I also want to see covered more.

The 49ers’ not-so-secret weakness dooms them against the Saints

This is a horrifying image for San Francisco 49ers fans. The weather at Candlestick Park this Saturday is expected to be sunny, clear, with light winds, and temperatures hitting as high as 67 degrees. Sounds great for a bike ride at Candlestick Point, but it’s looking more and more like the legendary swirling winds and bitter cold at The ‘Stick won’t descend until Sunday, too late to help knock off the New Orleans Saints juggernaut.

Uni Watch just blew my mind with a close examination of a famous photograph of Dwight Clark’s catch in the NFC Championship game played at Candlestick Park in January 1982.

A lot of readers may be too young to remember how great Pat Summerall was calling games with John Madden for CBS and then FOX. People loved and respected Summerall and almost every call was nothing more than a guy’s name and the result of the play. That’s it. “Aikman…to Irvin…Touchdown.” Then Madden would blather on about this, that and the other. People LOVED those guys.
