THE 49ERS ARE IN A ROT OF TROUBLE

So, if you only read one story linked in a blog today, I suggest you read this one about the 49ers' training video showing players how to deal with the media in a diverse city like San Francisco. It kicks off with a visit to the City's Chinatown and features a "bespectacled, buck-toothed Chinese man," then throws in some topless women and sprinkles in some homophobia for good measure. So best: The Niners PR guy keeps telling the players to "be careful" because everything they say or do could wind up in the media and that reflects back on the team. Of course, the PR guy is saying this surrounded by strippers. Just go read it for yourself. Or better yet, watch the video. Ho. Lee. Crap.
