I am former sportswriter and photojournalist. This is a new forum venture that I title,
NAME THAT NINER!
It is a 49ers trivia question. The answer for each question is a single name out of all the names listed in San Francisco 49ers football history.
Each question was formulated, or constructed, around the player's first name, last name, or both, or otherwise something specific about that player, or his name.
The compilation of player names is from this single Wikipedia source. [I was not allowed to post the link. Here is it, broken in three parts]: (I hope I got it right.)

The questions were designed to be difficult and not easy at all. Some are very tricky. Words, phrases, or grammar related things may be inserted, or omitted, in order to mislead you or misdirect you.
Each question has but one answer, no matter how much another player name may "appear" to also be the answer.
Please note: This is primarily for those few of you who like or enjoy this type of thing. Things like Jeopardy questions, solving puzzles, math problems, mysteries, and doing research. It is not meant or expected to capture the attention of most members on this forum.
It is just for FUN. If it proves to be a hit, it could become more fun than you may imagine (details about that later).
There will be 4 editions (including this initial one). The four questions will be spaced out over the remaining weeks in the season. It's possible I will add a fifth question. We will see.
Thank you for reading. Without further day, here's my first NAME THAT NINER! trivia question:
Of noble properties, of prospects,
in days present, in days of old,
in days present, in days of old,
he's the only 49er, ever,
whose last name's forged from gold.
NAME THAT NINER!
