Ah the good old days.

I just watched the Niner's Bears game from week 10 (?) and was reminded that Kyle Williams was really coming along, and the guy Kaepernick seemed to be establishing the best connection with was Manningham. And oh yeah, there was a squat little knee breaker named Hunter giving Gore a rest every now and then.

Williams and Hunter have already had their surgeries, and Manningham is supposed to have his this week (they were waiting for the swelling to go away and for him to get his range of motion back). They can't help us now, but I am looking forward to seeing what this team can do next season with a full compliment of WRs. Manningham and Williams are both something, and neither seem to have any trouble catching Kaepernick's passes. Another thing I'd forgotten was that Kilgore was the guy who took over at Center in garbage time.

Weird. I guess after a decade or so of crap, my head is conditioned to be looking forward to how much better we can be next year, this time of year.
