08:14 AM ET 12.28 | Initial reports have cobbled together a list of GM candidates in San Francisco without obvious ties to some hot coaching names. So maybe there's a second and third wave of candidates. Maybe Jed [York] already knows who they are, because he has been quietly investigating who [Jon] Gruden and/or [Jim] Harbaugh would want lined up as their GM in a shared-power situation. That would possibly include people like: Mike Lombardi (associated with both men) ... Tom Heckert (former Philadelphia and current Cleveland GM, but under [Mike] Holmgren in the hierarchy, some ties to Gruden and worked with Harbaugh's brother, John) ... And George Kokanis (in Baltimore with John).

Is the list encrypted?

secret codes, secret agents, secret sauce, secret GM's. Whatever!!!

Apparently, Mike Singletary is on that list. Why else would the interns include a photo of him? Way to work hard for an appropriate photo.

These baseless 49er threads are getting old. Why no story about Manning's Vick impersonation?

That was shocking. I thought he was running for a box of oreo's in the end zone.

Look out coach! There is an empty bucket following you around!

Singletary will be back one day, a little older and a little wiser. I hope it's in the NFC West so he can torment the 9er's twice a year.

I'd like to see Gruden go there. I think he's itching to get back and make a dent on that division.

Will the next GM of the Niners be put on double secret probation?

That play shocked everyone, including me! I had time to refill and grab more snacks during that 'run'.

Looks like the boss showed up today.

Boss- "Singletary is gone. Get a picture of that guy whose brother coaches for the Baltimore Colts."

Intern- "No problem, boss. But boss, the Colts moved to Cleveland a long time ago."

You could have licked a half dozen oreo's during that play.

Probably easier to figure out the playbook,than to remember all those GM names.
