What I have Learned from the 2011 49ers...

Bad years set the stage for success: It doesn’t matter how many games you lose. It doesn’t matter how many losing seasons you have! Eventually, you will work your way to the top again. And when you do, remembering those bad seasons will make the good ones that much sweeter!

Changes aren’t necessarily bad: New coach? New offensive scheme? New Defensive scheme? It doesn’t matter what changes are standing in your way, you will overcome.

Prepare for every game like it’s the biggest one of the year: Work Hard! Train like it’s the big game! It doesn’t matter if it’s a 6-0 team or an 0-6 Team, you work equally as hard. You never know when a team might want the win more than you do so you need to desire the win more!

Shock them All! : don’t believe what they say about you! Don’t pay mind to their mindless comments. You know who you are and you’re the best! Even as you rise in rank, play every game like you’re a champion and one day you will be!

It’s not over yet: This is only the beginning! Nobody will be able to take this season away from you! Win or lose, we can only get better with time! So lace those cleats up, strap on those pads and keep working hard! Let’s do it all over again next year!

You Are Important To Me!!

Since you guys are all important to me, i wanted to keep you guys updated with great occurrences in my life! This weekend I had two of them and so I thought I would share them with you!

1. on Saturday 10/8 I caught the biggest Largemouth Bass I have caught in my time fishing. This season is the first season that I have jumped into fishing as a hobby and I am well on my way. I have caught over 40 fish this season (since june) but nothing could have prepared me for the fish I caught this past saturday!


If there is a type of fish that I have enjoyed fishing this season, it would have to be the Largemouth Bass. Their size, fight, and delicious meat have really drawn me to that type of fish. This fish was a 20 inch Largemouth that put up a great fight and is not only the biggest Largemouth, but the biggest fish I have caught to date!!

2. Even though I have been a Niners fan since I was a kid, I had never been to a 49ers game even though they have been so close to me this whole time. Well this sunday I went to my first San Francisco 49ers game!!



This sunday i went to Candlestick park for the first time in my entire life and watched a 9ers game! They were playing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and destroyed them with a score of 48-3! I'm glad I picked this specific game to attend!! The experience was well worth the price of the tickets. I had a blast!

Update on Life - 9/20/11

For some reason I just can’t bring myself to write much anymore. I will open up blogger and drown in my lack of inspiration. Next thing you know I am closing the window for another week. So what’s new since the least time I was here… way too much!
Ladies and Gentleman…
I AM AN ENGAGED MAN!!!!

Yes it is true on August 27th 2011, I became engaged to the love of my life, Yajaira. I’m not gonna lie, it was an emotional experience. Not only because of what was going on, but also because I felt like our relationship was approved of, created by and blessed By God. He provided everything I needed to make my girlfriends proposal into EXACTLY what she wanted!
So that’s the main news. Other than that I am doing different things at work. Starting different groups and taking on different objectives. I’m pretty excited about it all.
Adopt a block has had tons of changes and it is becoming a bit different but I still love everything that God is doing through that ministry.
I’m not going to lie, I had a bit of a hiatus from my weekly worship service. I continued to attend small group throughout, but I know that wasn’t enough. I am now attending again and experiencing the benefits of a weekly corporate gathering.
I have been fishing a lot. Angling is an exciting sport for which I have regained passion. I try to make it out to a body of water every weekend. I love it!
The 2011 Football Season is in full swing. I’m excited to see the niners play and I hope that this will be the first time I see an actual game.
I’ve been hanging out with some of my chico buddies a lot lately and it has been pretty refreshing. I used to hang with these guys about once a year but so far this year I have hung out with them twice with them this year with more plans for hanging in the future. Its been good hanging with the Chico buddies, especially my buddy Lee.
That is all for now. Not sure if anybody will read this.
Love ya folks!!

30 Day Project : Day 4

Day 4: A picture of Your Day

My day has been filled with football! It's week 17 in the NFL Season, the last week of regular season. Now we just have a few weeks of Playoffs and a superbowl and we're finished! No more football until next fall. I have no idea what I'm going to do with my sundays now :( Only thing to look forward to now is going to be March madness! Well anyway, only 10 minutes until the last niners game of the season! I'm gone, enjoy ur day, folks!

The 2010 49ers...

Can I vent my frustrations for a while? I always have! It seems that this blog is just me venting and nobody reading so I will in fact be expressing my frustration towards the SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS!!!!!!
Where do I begin? At the end of last year we were 8-8. We were all looking forward to this season… what was supposed to be the first winning season for the 49ers in a really long time! We had everything in place. A QB and an O. Coordinator that were about to spend their second season together, a motivational head coach that made them all believe in the 9ers again, 2 rookie offensive lineman, a rookie safety that looked extremely promising (Taylor Mays), an undefeated preseason, and of course some of the best players in the NFL heading up our team on O and D. And so we head out there against this all new Seahawks team and guess what, we get stomped!
And then 2nd game around guess what, we get stomped! And so on for 5 games IN A ROW! Then we won 3 out of four and ended up at the front lines before a young fresh buccaneers team but I will come back to that. The trajectory for our team has been painful. We’re talking about 5 losses in a row, 2 more that add insult to injury. We are the bottom of the barrel in NFC west, Our OC was fired for having a repetitive playbook, Players not playing to their fullest potential, a quarterback that looked like a high school player compared to the rest of the QB’s in the league and a playbook that doesn’t know how to experiment. And I hate to say it because I have been on the singletary team since day one, but our head coach isn’t doing the best job at motivating our crew. He tries to play too conservatively, taking a team that could be at the top and confining them to mediocrity. I’m not too sure who to blame anymore.
So Sunday we fell to this TB buccs team that really showed us how bad we are playing this season by shutting us out at home. They reflected our lack of preparation, our inconsistency, our lackadaisical performance, and our poor coaching. Although we still have playoff hopes, we have a difficult few weeks ahead, especially facing off against green bay in a few weeks.
With all that said, I will NEVER give up on my team! Niner Nation for Life!!!!

Superbowl!

This line was taken from My January 11th blog.

9. My NFL Superbowl Prediction: Colts Vs. Saints. Outcome: 38-35 saints up in overtime!

So the Superbowl is gone now! And as you can see my prediction was correct, except of course for the score. I predicted the teams that would make the superbowl and the winner… yup, I’m awesome like that! Well anyway, I’m kind of sad that football is over now. It’s such a cool sport; best sport ever! Oh well, it’s on to NCAA basketball now! Syracuse Orange are taking it all this year, folks!

Post Number 400: 49 time!

In 2002, Head Coach Steve Mariucci, Quarterback Jeff Garcia and Wide Reciever Terell Owens led the San Francisco 49ers to the post season for the last time to date. After that season Mariucci was fired as was Garcia, TO was traded. The forty niners then began a seasonal losing streak that lasted for 7 straight seasons. That is until this man entered the field!

Meet Mike Singletary The poster child for the 2009 season 49ers. The man that is credited with saying such inspirational quotes as “Hit them in the mouth” and “don’t tell me, show me.” A former Hall of Fame Linebacker himself, Singletary was just what the 49ers needed to bring them out of the hole that lasted 7 seasons.

This year the Bay Bombers finished at 8-8. Coach Singletary called it neutral but honestly we saw a change this year that gave niner fans hope for more. Singletary’s goal was for the playoffs which was a goal that we unfortunately missed. We did however emerge from out of the funk we were in and we did so victoriously.
This years team was full of natural talent that led us all to believe that this was our year. And to be quite frank, this really was our year, we just need to open our eyes and see it. This year was our first winning season in seven seasons and that is a milestone. We didn’t get playoff games, superbowl rings or a post season of any kind but we did receive hope for the future and that is something we didn’t have in the past.

2009 49ers top players are as follows:
#4 Punter Andy Lee. This man is considered the best punter in the NFC. In fact he is this years NFC pro bowl special teams kicker. Couldn’t have done it without Andy booting them into the boons!



#11 QB Alex Smith. What can I say about Smith. I have mixed emotions about this man. I think he is overrated as a QB. Don’t get me wrong, the man was a major part of the 49er season but I think if we replaced him with a veteran throwing arm we can seriously do some damage in the league. He did however record 310 yards against Seattle which was decent.


Those were the men, now for the machines!
#85 Tight end Vernon Davis. What can I say about this man? He is one of the two men that led the offense this year. But aside from leading the offense, 1st year pro bowler VD led the league in TD’s by a tight end this season (13). Among tight ends he is 5th in the NFL with 72 receptions and 4th with 876 receiving yards. Not only is he one of the best on the team, but he is one of the best in the league.


#52 Linebacker Patrick Willis. P-Dub is The best linebacker in pro football! There wasn’t a D play by the niners where you didn’t see Willis. That is why I had to have a pic of him doing what he does best! You still don’t believe me? The man led the league this year with 152 tackles, 4 sacks and three interceptions! If that doesn’t say Best Defensive player in the league then watch him do his thing in the pro bowl for the third time! And if you are still not convinced then watch him in action next year!


#21 Gore Frank Gore. Gore is a threat while receiving the ball but simply the best at rushing. The man is an unstoppable force when running up the gut. This is his 4th season in a row (out of 5) in which he rushes 1000+ yards. This season alone he had 1120 rushing yards, a career high, even though he sat out three games with a sprained ankle and had the spread offense dilemma working against him. But the true injustice comes when this train or a running back doesn’t make the pro-bowl! I think he was robbed of this honor and here on my blog (though it means nothing, lol) I name Frank Gore as one of the best pro-bowl worthy running backs in the league! I salute you Gore!


These are the men that brought passion, energy, drive, and heroism to the field in this 2009 season making the 49ers a praise worthy team once again! I am a niner fan and I will be for my entire life. That is why I dedicated my 400th Blog to the best team in the NFL: The San Francisco 49ers!
