Trade deadline is past.

Call Kevin Smith so I can where my jersey again!

And Detroit still might get Ronnie Brown because I think the Eagels are going to cut him outright.

I would be very surprised at a trade…since..well, the trade deadline has passed.

Brian Westbrook….

marklar1025:

its confirmed, at least 154 people think you are an idiot.

getting a concussion: “thats what you get”
missing the season: “thats what you get”
family/friends pleading for your health: “thats what you get”

you are moron and all the 49ers have proven is that they have a qb that can average 179 yards/1 TD a game. sounds like playoffs to me.

I would not be surprised to see a trade with Seattle.

Tailback with concussion problems means short career.

Realistically with his history he probably should not be allowed back on an NFL playing field again. The damage to the sport would be horrendous if he was critically hurt in the future due to the existing problems.

I think if I’m the NFL I start thinking about the ramifications of the concussion policy and how best to compensate players and teams really damaged by it.

I’m sure Detroit will have a trade worked out in a few days. Probably trying to get Hillis.

OK, first things first. Take care of yourself Jahvid, and don’t rush back too soon. Long term health is too important to ignore.

Second, trading deadline is over. So all of you bringing up trade possibilities need to get over it.

Third, Kevin Smith fans…he was NEVER the same after his initial knee surgery. He was hesitant and went down on initial contact faster than a cheap hooker at a political convention.

Fourth, Jerome Harrison was found to have a brain tumor, and will likely be put on IR by the Lions. I suspect they will be looking for a FA running back to sign now. Harrison and Best need to address their long term health issues.

As a Lions fan, this is difficult to accept. The loss of not one, but two players in one week to what may be year ending injuries/illness at the same position? What’s the odds?

Here’s to hoping both young men are able to overcome and be healthy for years to come.

scratchnpost1234 was right & he broke the story before Scheffler.

“A rumor that the Harrison and a pick for Brown trade fell thru because Harrison was found to have a brain tumor. Off Scott Linehan’s son Matts Twitter account
Not looking for credit as a rumor is something I heard from someone else who heard etc etc…Scheffler is a twitter freak. Ther is no privacy any longer. Actually was a poster from Canada on the Detroit news Lions forum that heard it.

I think the Lions just picked up a blocking fullback, Matt Clapp. They had him on the roster last year. I’m sure Jahvid would have appreciated this a bit earlier.

Best has had a rash of injuries dating back to college. A lot of teams passed on him for that reason. This is his third concussion in two years plus the nasty turf toe injury. Doesn’t sound good for him.

thats what you get for hating the Niners growing up then talking about it when you play them….

get better Jahvid
————————————————————————
Yeah, that sounded VERY sincere. Niners fans have really turned into jerks seemingly overnight.

——————————————-

Almost as sincere as Harbaughs post game “apology” for “patting” Schwartz on the back.

I have to say i’m shocked at the comments/posts from 49er fans on multiple media outlet blogs the past week and a half…from the lead up to the Lions game to now, just sad.

Haven’t seen that kind of negativity from a single fan base in a long long time.

congrats on your win, good luck and best of health to your team the rest of the year.

Harrison tumor is confirmed, and Adam Scheffler gets credit for breaking the news. I wonder if they were checking him for concussions or if a brain scan is a normal part of a NFL physical?
The trade deadline is past, only FA help at RB now.
Kevin Smith wasn’t that fast to begin with and had an ACL, isn’t big enough to run over people and has chronic shoulder problems. Hard worker and but not the answe for the Lions. Get well soom Jerome Harrison.

It’s a shame… with all his potential he had a huge impact in about 3 games total but the injuries kept him from breaking out. Hope it’s not the end for him, but if it is I hope he saved his money so he can still live a comfortable middle-class life.

This kid is a great athlete too and a good football player, it’s a shame he’s having to deal with a possible season ending situation.

Tough situation, hope he makes the right decision for himself.

“After that trade was voided, the Lions don’t have many other places to turn if Best can’t go”

Because there are so few running back free agents out there. It’s a desert.

I have no idea why, but Best has always been the guy who gets the gnarly injury. Now, because of that, I see where his friends are coming from when they say to not play.

At Cal, he had the one where he got speared so bad he puked all over the field and himself, he had his elbow bent backwards and dislocated in gruesome fashion, and I thought I actually saw him die, or get paralyzed with the flying off-balance backwards head snap in the endzone (those that saw the final injury he had at Cal know what i’m talking about. It did not look good).

Prayers he stays healthy.

Yeah, that sounded VERY sincere. Niners fans have really turned into jerks seemingly overnight.

Seriously how the hell can you tell my tone from reading a post? I really DO hope he gets better soon and doesnt miss much more time. And I really do think its a bad idea to say you have hated a team your whole life days before you play them. The negativity comes from you, not me… cheer up folks.
——————————————————————–
I don’t need to tell the tone when I can read the words on the page. “That’s what you get” ? So you’re saying he deserved to get injured? What is that, karma? Your original comment was low-class…admit it and move on.

And obviously by the amount of thumbs down you got on your original post, most people agree with me.
