Washington is going to play this season out with Cousins, pray they make the playoffs, pray the 49ers are an absolute disaster in Year 1 of Shanahan and hope they can convince Cousins that he belongs in D.C. The problem with that approach is they just ridiculed him publicly 10 days before training camp in an almost unheard of fashion.
Matt Moore was having a fine night throwing the ball overhand. But when he tried to make an underhanded throw, the San Francisco Giants’ left-hander fell apart.

With 14 spots filled and one final roster spot remaining for the Warriors, the Dubs will likely fill that hole with their last remaining need, a backup center.
Reports came out yesterday that Cousins would still be open to considering an offer on a multiyear contract from Washington next offseason, but it’s also widely expected that Cousins and Kyle Shanahan are destined to join forces with the 49ers in 2018.

After winning the first game of the series in dramatic fashion on Friday evening, San Francisco received the post All-Star break boost it had anticipated for the last three months when the club activated Madison Bumgarner on Saturday afternoon.
Clayton Kershaw, Chris Sale and Max Scherzer are incredible pitchers, and with each passing season, those three players continue to build Hall of Fame resumes. But if it’s Game 7 of the World Series and you have your choice of a horse to ride, San Francisco fans are taking the pitcher who looks like he grew up raising actual horses.
