49ers ready to honor DeBartolo for his ‘acts of kindness
Brian Billick, who began his career as a lowly 49ers public relations assistant in 1978, visited practice today and told a short story that went a long way toward explaining why Eddie DeBartolo Jr. is going into the 49ers Hall of Fame this weekend.
During his second year on the job, Billick got married and trying to scrape up enough money to buy a house. He and his wife liked a place in San Mateo but couldn’t get enough for a down payment.
Suddenly, without warning, another 49ers employee handed Billick a check for $25,000. It was a special delivery from DeBartolo.
“Eddie D. wants you to get that house,’’ Billick was told.
The loan to Billick came without strings. Every time Billick inquired about how to pay back
DeBartolo, the answer was something along the lines of “Don’t worry. It’ll work out.” That didn’t change even when Billick left for another job.
Billick, who will be part of the Fox broadcast team this weekend, said he eventually did pay back the 49ers boss. He forgets how long it took, but he’ll never how DeBartolo dropped a check in his lap for $25,000.
“You remember those acts of kindness,’’ he said.

Gore is a beast
Nate Clements is a stud (Really liking this set of Cornerback's)
The offense needs work....still
The defense is coming along nicely.
Big Game this Sunday!

What's the spread?
The two defense's will cancel out and Minny's offense will tip the scales in the Vike's favor.
Prediction:
San Francisco : 13
Minnesota: 27

Line can still shift if the bets are too one sided.

There is a word for a team that serves as a discipline example for all the rest. Wimps. A collection of wimps. So that is the background to the 49ers’ tampering action against the Jets. It is a sign the wimp is pushing back. It is a sign the wimp, in fact, doesn’t want to be a wimp anymore and refuses to get bullied by the Jets, by the commissioner, by anyone.
You must understand the Crabtree camp has perceived the 49ers as wimps all along. They never would have pulled this holdout stuff with the Cowboys or Patriots, no way. But they perceived McCloughan and his minions as malleable, assumed they would blink and finally wimp out.
It is to the 49ers’ credit they haven’t caved. No one who cares about the team wants them to give into Crabtree and his greedy — yes, greedy — agent.
Final point: Singletary is having a positive influence on McCloughan, and here’s how. When you listen to Singletary you realize he emphasizes the same thing over and over again: No one will push the Niners around on the field. The Niners will be tougher than every team they face. It may take time for this toughness to reveal itself, but reveal itself it will, as it did in the first two games.
In other words, his team will not be wimps and certainly won’t take crap from anyone.
McCloughan is doing the same thing in the front office, taking his cue from the team on the field. He’s ordered Crabtree to sit in the corner and ponder the meaning of his life, and he’s told the Jets not so fast. The wimp fights back.
