Pre-season is meaningless, Aaron - remember that the Raiders went something like 4-0 last preseason.
That, and Gore was out for all the exhibition games, and there was an absolute carousel of receivers, as Nolan seemed to be testing everyone on the bench and a couple of the cheerleaders to see if they could be a receiver.
All in all, the Niners pre-season added up to what it was supposed to be - a testing ground for second and third stringers. No digging into the playbook, don't use your starters much, don't play too particularly hard and get injured.
Yes, apparently my alma mater managed to lose to some sort of high school football team.
Tis the season to lose to I-AA teams. Dammit.
American armoured combat, er sorry, football, ah who cares!? It's time for the Rugby World Cup.
Eh, it's preseason.
