interviews you love!
This week, Lex holds it down solo, while the Giants, Carolinian and cowboy in his own right Madison Bumgarner sits down with the fellas.
The Oakland Athletics are trying to play spoiler as the season comes to an end. Will the White Elephants stomp on the playoff aspirations of the halos? Also MoneyBall the movie is due out next week, has Billy Bean been playing it cool?
The Giants are pretty much a wrap when it comes to playoff hope. But maybe this years struggles should remind Gigante's fans how special the 2010 World Champ's really are...Plus Madison "The Carolina K Machine" Bumgarner sits down with the boys and shares his thoughts on life in the Bay and the interesting way he and his wife spend time in the off season.
The 49ers looked pretty darn good against Pete "the cheater" Caroll and the Seahawks. Was this Harbaugh magic, or did Ted Ginn's son have something to do with the 49ers home openeing victory.
The Oakland Raiders got the first W for first year coach Hue Jackson, and Run DMC looked like an elite running back, but the real highlight of the night came off the foot of the Polish Canon Sebastian Janikowski who kicked his way into NFL immortality, as the Raiders got a season opening win under the bright lights and thin air of Mile High Stadium and Monday Night Football.
We always kick it out of the end zone for a touch-back on The NorCal Report!!!

How is a Baseball GM being played by Brad Pitt supposed to act when a movie about his theory (that recently hasnt worked out so well in The Town) exactly as hes been doing in real life according to this article from Detroit
Youd think Hue Jackson would be feeling great after his first win as a head coach in the NFL but according this article in the COCO times coach could use some Tum, Ta, Tum, Tum, Tum's
and on a final note Im really tired of the media making such a huge deal about low attendance at The O.co Coliseum. I've been saying it for years, this is exactly what happens when you alienate your fan base buy saying you don't want to be around. Is the coliseum a bad venue for baseball? Absolutely... but I've been watching games played in cities with beautiful new state of the art ball parks San Diego, Pittsburgh, and Washington to name a few who rank in the bottom 3rd of MLB attendance. Hey Lew "wolf in owners clothing" do what your neighbors across the Bay did buy your own land, build your own stadium, be a part of the East Bay community and stop telling your fan base your gonna leave. I guarantee you will see the same numbers in terms of attendance and revenue the Hass family saw when they ran the Oakland Athletics as one of the premier franchises in the Majors. For those that say oh poor Lew is just a business man trying to make a buck, remember he gets a nice check form the MLB revenue sharing pot every year whether any one buys a ticket or not......
