This is from Peter King......I think all you naysayers need to ease up on San Francisco coach Steve Mariucci. For human decency, for heaven's sake. Last week, with the 49ers ensconced in their fourth postseason spot in Mariucci's six years, he was asked by a reporter about the rumors regarding his job security. Justifiable query, because there are legitimate questions about whether Mariucci will return to the 49ers in 2003 as a lame duck. "Do you think any other coach who's just clinched a division title has to answer questions about that?" asked Mariucci. On Sunday, the San Francisco Chronicle ran a letter from a Mike Mitchell of Magalia, Calif., that said, in part: "I have been a 49er fanatic since the late 1950s -- they have been the love of my life ... [But] this is a boring football team, and I don't care much about them any longer. If Mariucci continues beyond this season, I will never again waste my money to see this football team." Stat of the year, Mooch-bashers: Bill Walsh averaged 9.2 wins per regular season in 10 years, playing with Joe Montana and Steve Young; Mariucci has averaged 9.5, playing with the latter-day Young and Jeff Garcia. The man, with help from the front office, has presided over the rebuilding of a once-great team that is now good. He has won 13, 12, 4, 6, 12 and 10 (with one game left) games in his six seasons. That should be acceptable, Mike Mitchell. Having praised the man, I now send this one message: Go get a new kicker, Mooch. Jeff Chandler will kill you in the playoffs."
TIM... Granted this team has frustrated us more than usual this season, but i think alot of those 8-7 and 9-6 teams would like to be in our position don't you think?
