SF Examiner: Rodgers still breaking hearts of NFL fans in the Bay Area

By Art Spander
Special to The Examiner


The question arose again on an afternoon when the Niners once more had trouble scoring touchdowns and the Raiders simply had trouble playing football: What if San Francisco had selected Aaron Rodgers with the first pick in the 2005 NFL draft?

Growing up in Chico, playing for Cal — where he once completed 23 straight passes against USC — Rodgers was a 49er fan. That the 49ers — specifically coach Mike Nolan — chose Alex Smith and Rodgers slipped to 24th, taken by Green Bay, always may haunt San Francisco.

Seems we've been wrong about the republican-s; what we'd thought was their lack of concern for the middle class is in fact outright contempt for it! Don't like being herded like cattle down the slippery slope towards wage-slave-ry? DO something about it: join the Occupation-s!http://www.myswtorcredit.com" rel="nofollow">swtor credits

I have noticed that over the course of creating a relationship with real estate owners, you'll be able to come to understand that, in every single real estate exchange, a fee is paid. In the end, FSBO sellers really don't "save" the commission. Rather, they fight to earn the commission by doing a good agent's occupation. In the process, they invest their money as well as time to carry out, as best they could, the tasks of an adviser. Those responsibilities include getting known the home via marketing, presenting the home to all buyers, creating a sense of buyer desperation in order to induce an offer, booking home inspections, managing qualification check ups with the loan provider, supervising repairs, and assisting the closing.
