It’s refreshing when an NFL coach shows real leadership and isn’t afraid to call out prima donna athletes. Thus was the case when interim 49ers Head Coach Mike Singletary singled out TE Vernon Davis for being such a prima donna. And he did so in his first game as interim head coach. Davis is in the second year of a five-year, $23 million contract.
Singletary went a step further and sent Davis to the locker room while the game was still going on. Afterward, in his press conference Singletary said:
“I believe this: I would rather play with 10 people and get penalized all the way until we’ve got to do something else. Rather ...

The Big Lead —
Danyelle Sargeant on the Dan Patrick Show, just now: “Yesterday was bad. I had a migraine headache and stayed in bed for five hours … but there’s people in the world with real problems, and I am pathetic if I keep on dwelling over this. It’s embarrassing, but I can’t sit around and give up because of this … I didn’t even realize I misspoke. The producer said something in my ear, and we did it again. I spent that night in San Francisco with my boyfriend who lives up in that area. When I got back to LA, I got a text message saying, “oh, hang in ...

NFL Week 8 De-Cleeting:
Amphibious Sports Duo —
On my flight back from Miami on Sunday I got to experience the DirectTV Redzone since my flight was on JetBlue. I can honestly say that from now on when I am flying on a Sunday in the fall, I will do everything in my power to fly on this airline. No commercials, not too much time listening to the same broadcast team, and no being stuck on a bad game with only a few game breaks every half to let you see the other action. I realize that a lot of people already have Sunday Ticket and that this is nothing new to them, but for schmucks like me, it is quite an experience, even if it does come from a small TV on the back of an airplane next to two ...
Townie’s Take: World Series, Bud Selig’s Approval Rating

Quick survey: If you think last night’s game would have been completed had Tampa never tied it, raise your hand.
*Raises hand*
As a baseball fan that watches the World Series simply because it is the World damn Series, I feel embarrassed for the game I love.
It’s like a relative or friend that you love and believe in that keeps screwing up time after time. You just want to grab them and make them get their shit together. That’s how I feel about MLB and this World Series.
This thing has been a joke since pitch one of game one — whether it be inexplicable umpiring errors, misreading of weather forecasts, or the ...

Good thing Mike Francesca “doesn’t want to pick on the young lady”. At least her error was acknowledged — can the same be said for the mountains of misinformation Francesca’s been responsible for over the years?
Danyelle Sargent Is Trying to Put All of This Behind Her [Media Meltdowns]
Deadspin —
Fox sportscaster and potty-mouthed vixen Danyelle Sargent went on Dan Patrick's SI radio show this morning, sounding beleaguered and contrite for her embarrassing Bill Walsh slip-up that unfortunately made the airwaves on Sunday and unleashed the wrath of Mike Francesa. This is her quote from Patrick's show via The Big Lead: “Yesterday was bad. I had a migraine headache and stayed in bed for five hours … but there’s people in the world with real problems, and I am pathetic if I keep on dwelling over this. It’s embarrassing, but I can’t sit around and give up because of this … I didn’t even realize I misspoke. ...

Danyelle Sargent Calls Gaffe Airing ‘Malicious’
SPORTSbyBROOKS —
Danyelle Sargent guested on Dan Patrick’s radio show today to give her side of the story about the Bill Walsh-Mike Singletary interview debacle. Danyelle Sargent (Clip reposted - for now ) Sargent, who acknowledged that she was nervous about her first NFL sideline reporting gig, said the question she intended to ask Singletary was, “I heard he (Bill Walsh) was one of the first phone calls you made when you decided you wanted to get into coaching.… I didn’t even realize I misspoke. … We did it again and it went fine .” Amazingly, Sargent didn’t hear about the fallout until she flew into Los Angeles from San Francisco the next day: “I still ...

Mining the Gold Rush —
A little bit from the YouTube world on what has been a crazy weekend and couple days following. First off, here is a little bit from KRON 4 (I think that's Vern Glenn on narration) about the whole Singletary-Davis incident. And here's the famous screw up on the interview prior to Sunday's game. Right from the get-go, Singletary's day did not start off right.
Fox Reporter Danyelle Sargent thinks Bill Walsh is still alive.
