Da Warriors

Disgusted by a fumble during practice, 49ers coach Mike Singletary warned his players that the next player to turn the ball over would be banished from the field. Happy trails, Alex Smith.

Veteran swingman Devean George never made it to the Toronto Raptors, who acquired him early last month from the Dallas Mavericks in a four-team trade involving Shawn Marion. So his immediate reaction when he heard he was being shipped to the Warriors was not surprising.

The Warriors released their schedule for the upcoming year starting with a opening night home game on Wed, Oct 28 against the Rockets. “Golden State is slated to make eight (8) national television appearances this season, with six (6) games scheduled on ESPN and two (2) appearances on TNT.”

However, I’m not too sure he would really help the Warriors all that much given they already have Monta Ellis and Stephen Curry. There doesn’t seem to be enough minutes to go around in that backcourt for another undersized combo guard. It would be fun though. No doubt. (I’ll admit I’m a sucker for hoops-tainment especially when it comes to a losing club like the Warriors.)

The 49ers’ rookies reported today. Of course the two dueling quarterbacks were there reporting early and the team provided transcripts for head coach Mike Singletary, and quarterbacks Alex Smith and Shaun Hill.
