The Santa Rosa Press Democrat just posted Grant's Wednesday article -- he's writing for the paper paper these days in addition to the web. It's a big leadup to the Saints game and I must say the PD is rising up with Grant, Phil Barber and yours truly. Grant interviewed [...]
Grant is turning into a pretty enterprising guy, if I don't say so myself. He got the bright idea to contact a Saints beat writer, Mike Triplett (formerly of the Sacramento Bee) and ask all the questions Niners fans long have wanted to ask about Saturday's opponent at the Stick. [...]
I mentioned earlier today that Grant had done two versions of his interview with Ira Miller. One was a long and unedited version that Grant put on his website. The other was a much shorter, edited and focused version which ran Saturday in the print edition of the Press Democrat. [...]
I am not sure who will win the Harbaugh Bowl. I find the game wonderfully mystifying. My son Grant, however, is sure the 49ers will crush the Ravens, and he has very good reasons. I take Grant seriously because he has been bullish on the 49ers since training camp and [...]
Grant just posted an interesting and timely blog for his "Inside the 49ers" blog he writes for the Press Democrat. He based the article on interviews he conducted in Santa Clara today. He posits that Alex Smith has overcome every hurdle thrown at him this season including the game-manager designation. [...]
CSNBayArea just posted Grant's latest contribution. This time he wrote about Raiders quarterback Carson Palmer -- he wrote about Palmer after watching him work last night on television. We watched together and we were both impressed. So, this morning, Grant wrote a piece asking where Palmer ranks among current NFL [...]
Forgive me for this personal note but this past weekend Grant accompanied me to the Niners-Redskins game, the first time he's gone on a road trip -- and he did it with me. I think he did good work at the game, but you can judge that for yourself. I [...]
Grant phoned former major leaguer and current baseball expert Shooty Babbit and asked some relevant questions about Ron Washington, who just appeared in and lost his second World Series in a row. FYI, even though Washington lost, at least he got there and it's clear he's one heck of a manager. [...]
The Browns just kicked a 52-yard field goal as the first half ended. It won't help them much as they trail 17-3 and are not in the Niners' class. But the field goal sure helped me. As I reported here on the Cohn Zohn, I made a gentleman's bet with [...]
By now you probably heard two Philadelphia Eagles beat writers had a real punch out at the Eagles' training facility. This is too wonderful and shows how competitive and brutal it is to be a writer. You could get a bloody nose for heaven's sake. The person who writes the [...]
