After we beat them, Payton needs to head but Harbaughs a** instead of shaking his hand.

Much to do about nothing. Doesn't matter.

Payton said today in press conference he knows both the Harbaugh brothers personally. This really is much to do about nothing.

Pre-season doesn't mean squat. Both teams play head to head in 4 days....

Yeah I don't think the preseason matters for either team. It's just media hype story crap. I would have expected your team to be much further ahead at that time. After a long lockout, like a few weeks to prepare, no offseason, a young and up coming team. Vs. you guys who have had the same system, players, play calling and coaching for years. A lockout didn't matter to you. But it did to us.

Anyway it's a full season in now so everybody is more seasoned now. It will be a true test now for both teams.

I love when they reference those Navy phrases in their articles , it makes me feel all warm & fuzzy . . . lol.

- "Scuttlebutt" in slang usage means rumor or gossip, deriving from the nautical term for the cask used to serve water (or, later, a water fountain).[1][2]

- The term corresponds to the colloquial concept of a water cooler in an office setting, which at times becomes the focus of congregation and casual discussion. Water for immediate consumption on a sailing ship was conventionally stored in a scuttled butt: A butt (cask) which had been scuttled by making a hole in it so the water could be withdrawn. Since sailors exchanged gossip when they gathered at the scuttlebutt for a drink of water, scuttlebutt became Navy slang for gossip or rumours.[2]

So true, I like Harbaugh's attitude, it's what a young team needs. It will be a good game and a hard fought win........for us.
