The Dentist is performing root canal surgery on San Francisco without anesthesia.

The man single handedly ruined the Cities Olympic hopes, probably without even realising it.

Eddie, why did your your sister marry this dufus?

This "dufus" hired Mike Nolan, who has turned the franchise around on the field.

This "dufus" understands that the gameday experience is far more important to fans than the zip code in which the stadium happens to reside.

This "dufus" has rebuilt a 49er organization left in shambles by Eddie's cronies and their successors.

I think we're lucky to have this "dufus." He has actually kept the fans' interest in mind as he looks for a reasonable venue for a new stadium and refuses to be shoehorned into a site just because it is within the San Francisco city limits, and he is beginning to preside over a team on the upswing.

The Dufus has presided over one of the worst string of performances and slowest recoveries in the history of the team. He also was either ignorant of or did not care about the cities Olympic hopes and left our Olympic delegation looking like idiots, an unnecessary gaffe if nothing else and a sure sign that the whole operation is over his head. Machiavelli he is not.

When someone proposes no taxpayer money will be used, its just another way of shifting revenues around. One way or another, the taxpayers will end up footing the bill. Don't subsidze these millionaires.

Daily Horoscope for February 13

Gemini

This is a good time to take stock of your actions and the direction you're going in. Are your efforts getting you anywhere or leading you astray and scattering your energy? If you're putting in the work but not moving forward, you're not on track. The old adage 'cut your coat according to your cloth' is good advice. Be simple and purposeful and don't waste time with things that get no practical results.
