This thread from 2011 is what i will always think of when it comes to 49ersFaithful80. It's chalked full of some of his greatest misses.

What's interesting to me about that thread is that while 49ers was ultimately wrong, there was far more reason and far less rhetoric in his (I assume "his") posts back then.

Fully expected this, and at this point, if you have Gordon, I think the best option is to hold him til next year. I highly doubt you'll get anything worthwhile for him, but unless you absolutely need the roster spot, hold him and hope he gets his act together. I mean, in a 4-keeper league I picked him up at auction for the league minimum with the sole intention of holding him for a year(late enough draft date to be sure he is/isn't playing next year).

As an aside, I am getting really fed up with all the inaccurate media reports making bogus claims about the NFLs supposedly strict marijuana policy, and comparing it to the IOC which doesn't actually ban marijuana, only competition day use, or failing to realize that its the exact same as federal standards.

I just searched his posts and "Tebow" just because of his rhetoric. There's a lot of overlap between guys who speak the way he does and guys who were high on Tebow, so I guessed there'd be some gold there. Go figure. I'm sure, however, that there's more entertaining stuff than any of that.

Only Josh Gordon is at the very same club, in a disheveled stupor, rambling to any poor soul who will listen about his glory days in the NFL. "First receiver with back-to-back 200 receiving yards games," he slurs. "1,600+ yards in only 14 games..." - a story he's told many times before. Onlookers shake their heads, remarking how someone so high (no pun intended) could fall so far, so fast. Until Gordon stumbles to your table. "Buy a former receiving champion a drink?"

I traded FOR Gordon a few weeks back... Was able to get him for Edelman and S Smith... I fully expected to eat the suspension (anything less than a full year was just a bonus), and am banking on him getting his life turned around... Hope that offers some sense of what he's worth... At least in my league...

When suddenly a group of men in suits burst thru the door. A dejected Josh looks up just as one of the lawyers slams his briefcase down on the bar and says "don't you worry one minute Mr Gordon, we're going to file an injunction and drag this out for as long as we can". Josh cracks half a smile but it looks forced. Could this be the break everyone in the bar wants and needs? Only time will tell...

Meanwhile, a long legged woman in her early 20s wearing a red silky dress walks past you dropping her handkerchief, do you pick it up? The rest is up to you...

I dropped him. Why risk a roster spot when you can use it on another young talent.
