Yeah, but they got there in the end, amazing game, I honestly didn't expect my Niners to pull that off....... I always thought highly of Cousins coming through Michigan State and was thrilled to see him do so well. It must be very comforting for the Redskins to know that they have so much class even at back up, not all teams have that. As for Wilson, he is doing great but I think, given the outstanding year rookie QBs have had he will fall short of Luck or Griffen for ROTY.

I've always had faith in Bradford, he isn't the issue for the Rams...... But new coach (as well as Sam's third OC in as many seasons) will take a bit of getting used to. The first half may be a little shakey but despite my need for them not to, I think the Rams will get better as the season goes on.

I feel so sorry for the Seahawk Quarterbacks with TO on the way....... He has already got into a snip with the coach, Pete Carroll, regarding the number the club assigned him. Funny footage!!! As for my beloved Niners, they beat the Vikes pretty handily yesterday, but honestly pre-season is not exactly what we want to see. Although it was great to see both our QB's play some good ball. Especially since for a near champion team last year Alex Smith was easily the weakest of his kind out there.

And yet the wheel keeps on turning....... Callum Ferguson, Cameron White recalled, Glenn Maxwell called up for Australia's series against Pakistan http://www.foxsports.com.au/cricket/australia/callum-ferguson-cameron-white-earn-recalls-and-glenn-maxwell-is-called-up-for-australias-series-against-pakistan/story-fn2mcu3x-1226427141748

Cadel Evans indicates he believes Spanish fans put tacks on the road during stage 14 of the Tour de France http://www.foxsports...u-1226427194175

It's a funny thing when the media talk of the "Big 4" given that Fed has 17 now, Rafa 11, Djoker 5 and Murray...... He is still a class above the rest of the field but if he doesn't get one soon then he may well become that dreaded "best never". Unfortunately for Andy cold hard reality is that he has landed in one of the most amazing eras of men's tennis and while Federer and Nadal have been going hammer and tong for years now, we were all waiting to see who was going to step up to their amazing level and enter the battles, Djokovic has done that (his 2011 was astonishing) leaving Murray behind in a kind of limbo. I would have loved to see him win this Wimbledon and the 11th game of the second set is where it all started to go wrong for him. Congrats to Fed though, on that green stage he really is the king.

I did Dan..... And I really have no idea whether my 49ers did well of not, given I didn't know many of the names on the list. The Colts did do a great job. Luck will be sensational, at least he looks ready made and given the fact he has his favourite Stanford target (Coby Fleener) coming along with him. I would have loved Fleener to come to play for us in San Francisco as a damn good back up to Vernon Davis, while being bigger than the other TE's on the list (it also would have been conveinant for him!!). I also think that the Rams will be far better this season, with a new coach and a raft of offensive linesmen and wide receivers taken in the draft to help Sam Bradford, who was the worst protected QB in the league IMO then when he did get to throw the ball it was inevitably dropped. They should be better unfortunately. The Browns are interesting as they have essentially replaced their very young (and improving) starting QB in Colt McCoy with Brandan Wheedon, who is closer to thirty and will not have the wonderous get out of jail card in Cleveland as he did at Oklahoma State in Justin Blackmon. In fact outside of Petyon Hillis there is very little going on. As for the Seahawks, they are an odd one. They traded for what seems to be a good albeit nearly untested QB from Green Bay and he will help given what they have had. The one club that is causing great media question marks is Washington. They traded the world and a pretty good chunk of their present and future draft picks to the Rams to get a hold of their second pick so they could draft someone who they clearly believe is a potential franchise quaterback in Robert Griffen III and yet spent their fourth round pick on another quality QB (and a good on in Kirk Cousins), thus undermining both, especially Cousins who won't take a snap this season. Will be interesting to see how that one plays out........ http://espn.go.com/v...clip?id=7872352

Hadds support rolls in WE'VE had plenty of feedback with people wanting to pass on their good wishes to Brad Haddin and his family after we told you about his daughter Mia's battle with cancer. Haddin is grateful to all the well-wishers and even thanked this column for its support, which of course he didn't have to do but it shows what a quality bloke he is. Haddin can't thank all of those who have offered their support in person, but he sent me the following text. "At the moment things are very raw and we have a long way to go. We would like to keep things as private as we can. But we are very grateful and appreciate everyone's well wishes from the bottom of our heart. Brad and Karina".

I know and understand what all you fine gentlemen are saying...... I'm just not personally sold, yet. That's not to say I won't be in time, but right now for me (just me) there just seems to be something missing. And I also agree with you Rhino when you say Roach and particularly Shillingford are class. In fact the Windies look to be a team on the rise.

And I'll read anything I want to into what Clarke says...... Clarke didn't actually have to say anything at all other than pull a PC comment out of his arse. Haddin didn't need to be brought up by anyone other than the press. And I honestly don't think Wade has set the world on fire, but he has become such a hero. I guess being a Victorian helps him here. But I disagree with that assessment to this point, so still Paine for me (if that's allowed)
