**Meanwhile, on KNBR, Adam Wynn just bought out Marty Lurie and Gary Radnich' parking spot.

**Being serious only briefly, suppose it was DA Raiduhs that removed Dennis O'Donnell? Wonder what the reaction would have been. (Can you say, slowly, "d-o-u-b-l-e s-t-a-n-d-a-r-d?")

**Kim Coyle to Mike Singletary: "Sing, what's it like being a black NFL coach?"

**"Hi, I'm Gene Burns...tonight I will talk extemporaneously about absolutely nothing for three solid hours while you and the kids play scrabble."

**It's time for the "Post-game Rap" ..."Kruk, the Giants lost 1-0, but they showed a lot of grit...yeah, Flem, there's no such thing as a moral victory, but these guys are games, right Kuip? ...We'll look, I'd rather lose 1-0 then win 13-2....you need to face it again: it's torture, right John: Well, uh, uh, the Giants need, to, uh, uh, get it in high gear if they're gonna go to, the uh, playoffs, OK, who's your pick?"

**Dennis O'Donnell, me thinks, '86 the future trips to Great America.

(Good insight and care for some after-dinner mints?)

**Attn, Stanley Roberts, KRON4's "People Behaving Badly", report to 855 Battery St. immediately.

**Herb Caen in heaven to Mike Singletary: "Coach, its only week 2, 'do me a favor, relax, have a drink at Tadich and put it on my tab."
