@BaseballJeff1 Hey Jeff. Can you tell me if the public is allowed to watch ACL games? My son and his young family just moved to Phoenix.

#SFGiants MiLB roundup ACL (L 5-3) Josuar Gonzalez: 1-2 Luis Hernández: 0-3, BB Yulian Barreto: 2-4 Nick Margevicius: 4 IP, 0 ER, 2 BB, 1 SO A+ (W 4-3) Zander Darby: 2-3, 2 2B, 2 RBI, BB Zane Zielinski: 1-3, 2B, RBI Charlie McDaniel: 4.1 IP, 0 ER, 2 BB, 6 SO

@GiantHotTakes Big free agent contracts that don't deliver. I'd rather watch the kids from the farm system play, win or lose, and develop.

@Coach_Yac His job, IMO, is to give them some sort of an identity and field an exciting team. Instead, he has fielded a boring, expensive, non competitive team. I like Vitello but not for this team as its currently constructed.

Giants fans, this is a safe space. Give me your honest opinion on the job Buster Posey is doing with the team right now

@grantcohn Yep, the Giants lack an identity. They'd been better off going the Rays and A's route.Tibbs, Eldredge & Harrison would be getting significant playing time, record wouldve most likely been better & theyd be more interesting to watch. Instead they have big brother(Dodger) delusions

Still true.

Everyone should unequivocally condemn the government-imposed racial discrimination Obama is pushing! Obama makes three errors in one post, all of them philosophical. First, the United States is a constitutional republic, not a democracy. The purpose of the Constitution is to protect individual rights from the majority, not to ensure "equal participation in our democracy." The Founders designed the system specifically to prevent what Obama is demanding: unlimited majority rule. Second, "protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach" sounds correct until you examine the premise. Rights belong to individuals, not groups. The moment you define rights by racial group membership, you have adopted the same collectivist framework that produced the discrimination you claim to oppose. Jim Crow categorized people by race and assigned rights accordingly. Modern voting rights activism does the same thing with different beneficiaries. Both are collectivism. Third, gerrymandering is a problem created entirely by the system Obama wants to preserve: a political structure where the drawing of district lines determines outcomes. His solution is not to fix the structure. It is to ensure his side draws the lines. The government must treat every citizen equally before the law. Everyone should reject Obama's framing entirely. He is not defending individual rights. He is defending group power, while using the language of rights to make collectivism sound like liberty.

It only took Barack 20 minutes to find the motive for today's Supreme Court ruling. Odd.

Outstanding.

My favorite part of King Charles appearing before Congress was the part where all the liberals who refused to stand or applaud for Angel Moms or a kid with cancer, and who constantly scream “NO KINGS!” give a 3 minute standing ovation for a literal king. 🙃 What a bunch of disingenuous hypocrites.

@49ersSportsTalk TRUE

𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐄 𝐨𝐫 𝐅𝐀𝐋𝐒𝐄: John Lynch, Kyle Shanahan, and the #49ers organization are bad at drafting players?

MORMONISM: started by Joseph Smith claiming an angel gave him a message. ISLAM: started by Muhammad claiming an angel gave him a message. BIBLE: “even if an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to what we have preached to you, a curse be on him (Gal. 1:8)!”

@49ersPhishOsUNC @Coach_Yac Yep, agreed. Not familiar with the ownership of the Rams and Seahawks off the top of my head, but Im guessing Id prefer them over Niners ownership as well. Not to mention Seahawks and Rams have better stadiums as well.

@RobTexas216486 @Coach_Yac Absolutely. Same with their GMs. I wish the Niners had either one of their FOs. Our roster would likely be incredible.

Sean McVay was asked his thoughts about John Lynch grinning at the Rams for taking Ty Simpson at #13: Sean McVay: “I love John and would be interested to see what’s he smirking at there. What did you take away from that?” Kyle Brandt: “I think he’s really happy that you drafted a guy he won’t have to play this year.”

Brian Baldinger was asked if people should be concerned with how the 49ers have drafted in the last 5 years: “I’d be concerned. You have to be concerned after you look at what Seattle is doing in the draft. You look at what the Rams are doing in the draft. The Rams don’t have a first round pick on their offensive line and haven’t the entire time since Sean McVay has been there. They never used a first round pick on one. They trade most of them away… They have struck gold repeatedly. You look at Kyren Williams in the 5th round. Kobie Turner in the 3rd round and Puka [Nacua]. To say that the 49ers are drafting on the same pace that the Rams and Seahawks are, would be crazy. You can’t stretch it like that.” via: @957thegame

@49ersPhishOsUNC @Coach_Yac I agree. Matter of fact, while I dont like the Rams or Seahawks, I think both head coaches are awesome.

@Coach_Yac I thought this was funny & good natured honestly. Unpopular opinion coming from a #49ers fan; I like Sean McVay. IMO he’s a great HC & does well with the media.

Why would a teacher named Cole Allen travel across the country to kill President Trump? The same reason a mother named Renee Good tried to run over an ICE agent doing his job! They were both indoctrinated by lies and pure hate coming from Democratic leaders and legacy media!

@grantcohn Kyle just proved that the situation is even worse. They are not missing on their guys. They would have drafted every one of them even earlier if they had to...

I asked John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan why they reach so much in the Draft every year.

@LombardiHimself This is a strawman argument. People aren't upset because they think the players are bad. They are upset because the team neglected positions of need, got minimal returns from trading down, and took players that would have most likely been available much later.

Something is rotten in Santa Clara. The 49ers draft process isn’t just off, it’s systematically broken. The 2026 class is just the latest entry in a 5+ year pattern of pissing down their own leg. Here's a summary of the 2026 class: - A 60-pick reach in Round 2. - A flawed “need” player over higher-upside talent. - And, of course, the "Shanahan classic:" a RB taken 40-70 spots earlier than expected while premium positions sit untouched. This isn’t misfortunate. It’s a pronounced, fundamental failure to understand value and evaluate talent. One reach is defensible. Doing it every year, while consistently flaunting the board, is malpractice. Take Stribling: the Niners passed on higher-graded players at positions of need - Bisontis, T.J. Parker, Kayden McDonald, Cashius Howell, C.J. Allen, Colton Hood (all who went within the next 8-9 picks) - to draft a traits-based WR projected for the middle of Round 3, if not later. Best case, he develops into a good player but contributes nothing this year while immediate impact options at guard or edge go elsewhere. Then they trade back from 58, passing on players like Anthony Hill and Keyron Crawford, only to land Romello Height, a 25-year-old with a capped ceiling. Even if he produces, the opportunity cost is glaring. You don’t pass on young, ascending talent for marginal contributors unless you’ve got a broken framework for evaluating talent. And then the signature move: reaching ~60 picks for Kaelon Black. A fine player, sure, but with no distinguishing traits (call him Jordan James redux...but taken 60 picks earlier). A Day 3 back taken on Day 2 while OL (Trey Zuhn, Gennings Dunker), WR (Chris Bell), EDGE (Barham), and S (Jalon Kilgore) talent remained on the board. It’s not just suboptimal, it’s flat-out incoherent. At some point, this stops being debatable. Under @JohnLynch49ers, this regime has gone 6 drafts without producing a single Pro Bowl player. The results aren’t unlucky; they’re consistent. And consistently mediocre at best (see 2024/2025) and disastrous (2021, 2022 and 2023) at worst. @JedYork, tolerating this is a choice. And that choice is settling for permanent underachievement. Enough is enough. cc: @grantcohn @sportslarryk @Chase_Senior @SharpFootball @dieter @hutchdiesel

Virginia’s Democrats today: “No kings for Trump… but kings for us 😌 We just redrew Virginia’s map so 45% of Republicans get ONE rep. Fighting fascism with our own special fascism — one-party rule incoming! Who needs voters when we decide the outcome? 💅 “

Since 2016, we have been forced to ignore important issues like homelessness, street crime, migration to chance around a boogie man called “white supremacy” that was created and funded by the democrats. Think about that. The most elite law enforcement agencies were told white supremacy was the biggest threat to us all. Not terrorism, not voter fraud, not fentanyl coming across our borders killing 100,000 Americans a year. We now know why. The SPLC. I am sure there are more.
