Boy, what a difference a week makes; after last week, I would've bet Aaron's first born son on Crabtree not suiting up with the Niners this season. After some shenanigans (see pic below) this week? I'm pushing this to a 50/50 bet.
Tuesday Morning Crabtree Watch - 10/6
Again, head here for part 1, and here for part 2.

Leading up to today's report that Crabtree and Niners brass met in the Bay Area, there were some interesting insights provided from a number of sources:
ReplyDelete1) This past weekend Neon Deion said, not once, but twice, that Crabtree may be on his way to the Bay Area. The first reference tickles me cause Mariucci calls him out twice saying he doesn't know anything.
2) Tim Kawakami got Singletary to say, on a couple different questions, that he'd welcome Crabtree with open arms if he can help the team win. Singletary also said "Like I said, I met him, I talked to him and I had a good feel for him. I haven’t been wrong too often. I think he is a great kid."
I think it's awesome how much confidence coach has in himself right now. Yeah - that's right; I'm gonna start calling him "coach" as if he coached the towns high school football program.
An immediate follow-up from Mike Sando (NFC West blogger) and Adam Schefter (NFL Insider) over at ESPN note that:
ReplyDelete1) it appears as though Crabtree is caving this time, implying that the moves by the Niners over the past few weeks have paid off, and
2) that the move today could even imply that a deal could be made by the end of the week.
Looks like Crabtree signed: http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=4538482
ReplyDeleteThis running post will not be changing to a watch of how he performs as a Niner on and off the field...

Will not or will now be changing to that?
ReplyDeleteAnyway this could not have ended in a more spectacular way. The golden duo that made it happen? Deion Sanders (above) and MC Hammer. You can't make this stuff up.
A truly appropriate end to the Crabtree Chronicles. I also wanted to point out that MP is excited for the Crabtree era because we're going to see a lot of "VD blocking for Crabs" during routes. Ah, and who wouldn't be excited about that.
"will now" - good call out
ReplyDeletedon't forget about patrick syphillis...too far?
