It seems alot of concussions happen courtesy of the 49ers and nothing ever gets done about it.

I remember watching that game on MNF seeing best rip that run.

He would have been a very good RB, but at the end of the day he has to make the right decision for him and whilst its a tough one it was the correct one.

How is Mikel Leshoure doing for you guys Slo? I watched him in college and wanted us to pick him up a few years back
