I guess if you are a professional athlete it is better to ignore Social media all together.
Idk how any celebrity/famous person could go on social media. The things that get said about them and their families is horrific sometimes, and unwarranted. I think most know how to block it out.

It's probably the sticking point honestly.
The most he can hold out is 8 games so. Worst case scenario.
I'm curious if paraag is actually doing
this one or if he's solely focused on Leeds right now.
i get it though because we are already over the cap quite a bit next year and that doesn't include Bosa's big ass salary. He's obviously worth it but how his deal, specifically, determines who we can keep and can't for the next couple years. Mainly next year.
we can do a lot of extensions and restructures but with Bosa's deal, we will be like 30-40M over the cap next year and not even 53 or so players signed

i wish that crap would just go away. I don't see other fan base say s**t like that other than our own. It's stupid.
Its not just niner fans, it's all nfl fans calling him that
That's fine if other fans do it. I don't give a s**t. I expect them to hate on him. But shouldn't be coming from our own fan base. That's dumb. And it's not just him, it's also McCaffrey, Kittle, and Juice. Just sayin' that s**t probably doesn't go over well with them.
So if anyone reading this that is guilty of that crap….just stop! it's not funny.
that is all.

Sorry. I'll move on. I wasn't even talking about politics. But, I guess, I can see how some might misconstrue that way.

Not you, there was another post that could have triggered a thread derailment.

Yup. I would have a deadline. You have to know your absolute hard line and stand on it. This applies to both sides because we know we have to make him the top paid non QB and we know what we can do and can't do. If we can't agree then you have to DeFo his butt if and only if you can get what you want for him. The team holds the chips here not Bosa so we have to boss up!

Without Bosa we go from a top 3 defense to a bottom 10 defense.

The way I see it we do have a deadline, week 1 vs PIT, that's the deadline. He has to suit up that game, or he faces consequences. It's about setting the precedent. Let's not worry tho, he'll be here.

not even man, we still line up Javon, AA, Drake, Fred, Ward, Dre, Huf, Gip, etc.
those guys aren't bottom 10, far from it, more like top 10.

same way regular folks like us keep our political/religious perspectives to ourselves, for the most part, professional athletes should to, IMO. I don't mind them having opinions or stances on a lot of things, I just don't like anyone telling someone else what they should and shouldn't believe. It's a free country, we don't have to agree with each other all the time, just respect each other and our differences. (Unless they're hurting or oppressing someone - then screw them.)
I don't care what they say. I care how they play. Same thing I said about Kap I say about Bosa. You don't like his politics. Ignore them. I'm concerned only about what happens between the lines once the 49ers line up. I grew up with racism and got along just fine with my side and the other side. We fought and scrapped and then once we lined up against the opposition we were in the same side not caring about red or blue or whatever.
Men will be men and everyone has an opinion but what I want most is a win. Once we drafted Bosa I could care less about how he voted. I want to know how he plays. He plays good so I want him but I understand if we have to trade him as well so long as we are getting at least two firsts in any deal.
I'm thinking it gets done soon

He's going the Crabtree route because Paraag won't budge and allow a bad precedent to be set for our team

I haven't seen that but I believe it stems from when he was at Ohio state and had pro Republican/trump tweets. He's from a Republican area in Florida, makes sense.
he's def not racist, he's just from a businesses minded area that doesn't get exposed to the racial and poverty areas in this country, is my opinion.
he's been one of the few white guys amongst predominantly black football teams his whole life. Hahaha no way he's racist.
He's from Ft.Lauderdale, FL. Which is more purple than anything else, especially when it comes to the rest of the state
lol if we lose Bosa because of woke politics

This is true for anyone and everyone, in my opinion.

We didn't have him in 2020 and we weren't a bottom 10 defense. Weird take
