Michael Crabtree signed!

Maiocco and Barrows are the Niners' beat-writers and they do a great job. They come with news about the team before anybody else and they only publish FACTS. If it's not a fact, they don't write about it. They also refrain from giving their opinions for the most part, so they are unlike sports writers like Kevin Lynch or Tim Kawakami. So, whenever Crabtree signs, they will likely be the first to report it and until I hear it from them, I don't believe anything.
All I know about twitter is you can only use so many characters every time you post, and the amount of characters you can use is less than a standard text message would allow (160). I saw that shit on the news a while back and for some reason I remembered it.
I don't see what's funny about it. Then again, I didn't see anything funny about the JaMarcus Russell holdout a few years ago, either. I guess I just don't see why fans of other teams concern themselves with another team's situation. If Crabtree were coming out and talking shit about the organization or saying he doesn't want to play for the Niners or whatever, then I could imagine fans of other teams thinking it's funny. So far there's really nothing going on. Crabtree isn't talking shit and the Niners don't seem too concerned with the whole ordeal. It's not gonna bother me until he starts missing regular season time, which is quickly approaching.

i say it is funny because of the way it unfolded and how he fell in your lap. on here atleast, niner fans were calling us stupid, yada, yada, yada. the 1st nine teams must have seen this coming. we made reference to his diva ways, and look what happened, and he hasnt even played a down in the NFL. that is comedy. if he had any real advice, it would be to take the 15 million, STFU, and play football. your work has just begun.
The raiders pick was/is stupid. Not because they passed on Crabtree, but because they took a guy with the #7 overall pick that they could have landed in the mid-to-late 20s or even the 2nd round. THAT is comical. But even then, you don't see me making threads or talking shit about DHB every time he's reported to have dropped a ball because I'm just not that concerned with what's going on with the raiders. I do think that situation holds a bit of comic value, but I'm not throwing it in everyone's face.
You think our situation is funny, that's cool. I think yours is comical as well. Only difference is I don't go out of my way to talk shit. I ONLY retaliate.
I highly doubt that. There's no way any team could have seen this coming. On top of that, if none of the teams had taken a receiver before him, he probably wouldn't be demanding more money. He feels he's being fucked over because another WR got more than he is being offered and pretty much EVERYONE had him rated as the top WR and a top 3 overall talent in the draft. He wants what he feels he deserves as the best WR in the draft.
In the end he will take whatever's being offered to him because sitting out the season would be the dumbest thing he can possibly do.

I admit that I don't think DHB was a great pick, if it was up to me we would not have picked him... but I really don't know for sure yet
however, as of right now it's a better pick than Crabtree, because he's actually signed and playing
people laugh at the Raiders for trading away their 2011 pick, well the Niners basically just gave away their 2009 by picking Crabtree
