All of this talk of war with Russia and the end of the world and melting to death in the seat of your car while sitting in rush-hour traffic having not known the embrace of a woman or a mother in lengths approaching the nearness of planets really got me thinking about Thursday's preseason battle against the Niners.
For starters the offensive line is flaky and will have to be on its toes against a revamped 49ers defense. Much in the same way that many of my generation figured (wrongly) that we would never have to worry TOO much about intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM), think again: If the tight ends make it around the offensive line they will most definitely get some sacks so we'll have to watch out for that. Whether or not this latest incarnation of "The Red Scare" will have any measurable effect on our ability to minimize the pass-rush remains to be seen, however recent comments by Pat Buchanan suggest that any and all efforts to prevent a "Cold War II" are all but over--news which may leave our defense panicking in the fucking streets.
Pregame Notes:
*Preseason trades have left the 49ers with changes on both sides of the ball, look to see how they adjust to the Bears' outstanding special teams.
*The acquisition of free-agents have made the 49ers a threat in both the nickle and dime slots.
*Chicago has awarded the starting QB spot to Kyle Orton--he is rumored to give a conference regarding Moscow's threatening comments vis-à-vis the US/Poland missile-defense-system controversy following Thursday's game.
