49ers Singletary Has Respect of The Team; What’s Up with Jim Rome

Not often you see an NFL coach kick one of his best players off the field. And, the 49ers should have ripped the 搃nterim label?from Mike Singletary right then and there! There抯 no way Singletary 搇ights up?Vernon Davis like on the basis of that one play. Clearly, this has to be a guy that has been on his nerves for a while and playing the game the wrong way, I抦 sure, as far as Singletary is concerned.

Sure, he wants to make an impression and get his team抯 attention. But, there抯 no way you take a guy, who抯 a former 6th pick overall, jerk him out of the game and then humiliate him publicly after the game like that. Unless, there are some deep-rooted problems there! Unless, there抯 some sort of football related pattern of abuse. No way!

There抯 just no way Singletary lays out a guy like that for that one penalty. It was a stupid penalty on his part卋ut not that stupid! Not stupid enough for Singletary to 搇ight him up?the way he did. That抯 not only an NFL player, that抯 a former first rounder卼he sixth player taken overall卆 multi-millionaire, kicked off the field by his head coach like a high school kid with a bad attitude! Like, 揼et outta?my faced Davis卛n fact, get the hell of my field Vernon, you make me sick!?BR>
It pumped all of us up, but what effect did it have on his players?! Don抰 lose track of the obvious. They got 揾ammered?by a bad Seattle team. So it doesn抰! How fired up we are by that presser? He might have their attention. He might have their respect. They might even fear him, but all of that together won抰 make bad players good. It won抰 make J. T. O’Sullivan a 揝teve Young?
