Over the last couple months, Michael Crabtree has only caused headaches for the higher-ups within the San Francisco 49ers. 2009 is supposed to be Crabtree's blowout rookie season with the 49ers, as he was selected as San Francisco's first-round pick (10th overall) in the '09 draft, but his months-long holdout for more money is getting more and more soured by the minute, and in the meantime San Francisco is doing something it hasn't done in at...more
The San Francisco Giants were in a knock-down, drag-out fight with the Colorado Rockies for the National League Wild Card spot in the playoffs. With the NL East, NL Central and NL West pretty much decided (the Phillies, Cardinals and Dodgers all have over 92% statistical odds of winning their divisions respectively, according to the stats at Baseball-Prospectus online) and other potential Wild Card teams like the Marlins, Braves and Cubs still back a couple games, it seems as though it's really all down to the Giants and the Rockies to make an interesting playoff race this year. As of September 5, 2009, the Colorado Rockies had a one game lead on the San Francisco Giants. Colorado (75-60, .549) is clearly the favorite to win the Wild Card spot at this point. In fact, according to the postseason odds calculated by BaseballProspectus online, the Rockies have a 62.8% chance of winning the Wild Card spot in the National League, compared to the Giants' 21.2% chance of winning the Wild Card spot. Las Vegas seems to be siding ever so slightly with the Rockies, as well. According to the betting futures data at Vegas website, Colorado is currently fetching odds somewhere around 12/1 to win...more

The San Francisco 49ers aren't necessarily one of the worst-faring teams in the NFL with a 3-3 record after Week Seven, but they are also one...more
