As you know, my son Grant is contributing once again to CSNBayArea.com. He couldn't write for them during the football season because he was so busy with the Niners. Today, he wrote twin pieces, explaining who are the five most essential players on the Giants and A's and then choosing [...]
Grant is back writing again for ComcastSportsNetBayArea.com now that the 49ers season is over and he has time to look around the world a little bit. (Don't worry, he's still writing his Niners blog for the PD 12 months a year.) He wrote a piece for Comcast (which he linked [...]
Grant just posted something on the Santa Rosa Press Democrat website and I want to share it with you. Odds already are coming out, predicting who will win next year's Super Bowl. Grant was surprised to see the Niners ranked much lower than he expected. He gives the current odds [...]
On Super Bowl eve, Grant just posted a blog about Alex Smith and his third place finish in the voting for AP Comeback Player of the Year in the National Football League. Grant has some interesting things to say about the voting itself, about how he thinks Smith is perceived [...]
Grant just posted his list of his top-five favorite 49ers from this past season. I like lists like this one. Most sportswriters do. When we're on the road and go out to dinner after a Niners game, a good part of our conversation is devoted to what the coaches are [...]
I'm posting a blog that Grant wrote earlier today. I would have posted it sooner but I was at the Dennis Allen intro news conference and then I appeared on Comcast and then I came home and had dinner with Grant and Mrs. Cohn Zohn -- roast chicken with a [...]
In today's 49ers blog, Grant analyzes how the Niners can improve their performance on third downs and in the red zone. They were two glaring deficiencies in their offensive attack this past season. Grant has some interesting ideas, which I won't telegraph here. It's a lovely sunny day here in [...]
Grant just posted a blog on what the 49ers desperately need going into next season -- namely a big wide receiver to improve their offense in the red zone and near the goal line. I think Braylon Edwards was supposed to be that guy, except he wasn't. Grant puts out [...]
Grant worked hard on his season-ending grades all morning. I know he did because I watched him do them. He graded all team units and key coaches for their performance the entire season. I find his grades fair and his explanations enlightening. I learned from what he did and I [...]
The Santa Rosa Press Democrat just posted Grant's Tuesday article about up and coming 49ers free agents. Obviously, the Niners -- and the players involved -- have some serious choices to make. You can bet the team will be different next season from what it was this season. On a [...]
