GUESTS:

GIANTS:

-Win:


-Cueto retired last 17 ---throwing 95 in the 9th ---That's what I was saying about Bum---They needed that one----

- 3 eight pitch innings
- 9 IP 105 pitches
-First two IP - 18 pitches

Key play:

Adam Wainwright, who is having a down year, couldn’t hold on, and he got burned by a peculiar decision. With two on in the fourth and one out, the Cardinals intentionally walked Denard Span, who has struggled so badly in September that he was dropped seven spots in the lineup. Cueto immediately made them pay by hitting a fly to right that was deep enough to score a run. Angel Pagan’s single made it 4-2. Span’s two-run single in the seventh extended the lead. 

Changing it up: 

Cory Gearrin cut his long hair. Bochy called off batting practice. Trainers and coaches arrived late, and the training room — a popular hangout spot for all players — was closed until four. Pence, naturally, showed up at 3:50. He said players appreciated Bochy’s directive.

MLB:

BASEBALL PLAYERS SPEAK OUT ON WHY IT'S HARD TO SPEAK OUT: 

-Message misconstured through media or Twitter - Other social plat forms

-Only 10% of MLB layers are black '
-Have to stand everyday for anthem
-Leagcies to protext
-Sponsors to protect
-Team may not like ti , lead to release or trade
-Many issiues -- Many players address them off the field without many knowing

CURRY SAYS HE'LL STAND:

Golden State Warriors MVP Stephen Curry said at the convention TechCrunch in San Francisco on Tuesday that he will "most likely stand" when the anthem is played.

(I THINK HE HAS TOO MUCH TO LOSE, ENDORSEMENTS, TEAM CHEMISTRY) 

If you follow the way [Kaepernick] talks and the message he's trying to send with his act, from his mouth, he's not disrespecting veterans. He's not disrespecting military. That's not his intention," Curry said. "He's obviously continued the act to create a conversation for more social justice and things of that nature. So, I've been a part of certain conversations off the grid, and finding different ways to make our community better, especially for African-Americans. And so, that's not the way that I would do it, but I support him in his attempt to start a conversation or continue the conversation."


49ERS:

-Kap vs. Cam debate audio from NFL Network - Warner, Evans and McGinest all take Kap over Cam....before 2014 divisional playoff game won by the 49ers 23-10 


WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO KAP? From the best young QB in the NFL to the guy who takes a knee...

-The rise of Newton, the fall of Kap ---It used to be a debate --- I remeber having it two years ago -- 49ers won in Carolina in playoffs 23-10 on 1-12-14...

the last time in Carolina: 23-10 49ers 



Kelly vs. Baalke on Kap? Not new news---Kelly wants to see what a runner can do ---
-Gabbert: 4/4 in RZ, 8-17 3rd down, no sacks or INTs

-Stopping Cam Newton?
-Panthers offense more diverse 
-Panthers D with Kechly 
-49ers beat Vikings last yr on MNF week 1 
-Davis mis communication 
-

TEAM VALUES: 


Worst QB situations: 

-Browns: RGIII, Josh McCown, Cody Kessler
2. Vikings: Hill, Bradford, 
3. Dallas: Prescott, Romo, Sanchez
4. Eagles: Wentz, Daniel, 
5. 49ers: Gabbert, Kap, Ponder
6. Rams: Keenum, Mannion, Goff


Can it be fixed? The 49ers' actions involving Kaepernick indicate that they'll make decisions on football terms and little, if nothing, else. Gabbert is the starter for Chip Kelly now, and that isn’t scaring anybody. Ponder, signed when Thad Lewis got injured, is there as insurance in case Kaepernick exits, for whatever reason. Some insurance.

NFL:

RAIDERS TO VEGAS---

A Nevada oversight committee has approved a $750 million public funding plan for a Las Vegas Raiders stadium, according to CBS News' Mark Albert.
Clark County Commission chair Steve Sisolak confirmed to CBS News via text message that the Southern Nevada Tourism Infrastructure Committee voted "unanimously" Thursday to approve $750 million in public money to bring the Oakland Raiders to Vegas.
But this doesn't mean the team that currently resides in Oakland is on the move -- at least not yet. The plan, while a major victory for the committee, still needs approval from the Governor and legislature.
The stadium venue's estimated cost is $1.9 billion, and state lawmakers would have to approve the $1.4 billion stadium's public funding package.
Proponents of the plan, which include the Las Vegas Sands, want to increase the hotel tax to raise the $750 million that was approved Thursday, while the Raiders and the Sands would cover $1.25 billion. Of that total, the Raiders would chip in $500 million.
Ongoing expenses would be paid for by "about $35 million per year in taxes generated" on stadium grounds, Sisolak told CBS News, adding: "This is a great day for Las Vegas for UNLV and for the Raiders."
Meanwhile, the legislature has not yet set a date for the vote on the stadium. Proponents also want state lawmakers to meet and greenlight the deal as soon as possible. The next step would be to pitch the deal to NFL owners, 75 percent of whom must approve any team relocation. The owners are expected to next meet in January.
In January 2016, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said that if the Raiders want to move to Las Vegas and the owners are willing to approve it, then he likely wouldn't get in the way.
"Ultimately, it's the ownership's decision," Goodell said at the time, during an appearance on the "Rich Eisen Show." "It requires 24 of the 32 owners to approve any relocation to any market."
And just last month, the Raiders released renderings of the $1.9 billion stadium. Here's what CBSSports.com's John Breech wrote at the time: "During the presentation, the Raiders -- and their partner, the Sands Casino Group -- made one thing absolutely clear: If the state of Nevada is willing to commit $750 million in public funding towards a new NFL stadium, then the stadium will get built and the Raiders will move to Vegas."
