I guess it is April's Fool day ....

That is immediately what I thought when I read the headline

Shoulda' been something more believable...

Yea like Revis for our 2 2nds and he worked out a deal for 4 years 32 million or something like that

 

[Yadahell]

I actually fell for it and within 2 minutes realized what day it was. I thought- damn, they really are giving up on AJ already!

Much better. Make it 4 years/50 mill and I'd wonder...

I couldn't find the "April fools" punchline in the story, but I'll assume it's there somewhere.

Yeah, I live in Brooklyn. There is no New Jersey Post. At least I didn't have to read the article.

I just noticed the other fake stories on the right, and this one made me giggle:

Cowboys give Tony Romo 6-year $108 million extension -- No really -- This happened

 

[TheNinerMind]

This one's been done. Remember the Andre Johnson trade article? How about something like "Jerry Rice being brought in for a tryout."

This thread made me very happy, then very sad 5 seconds later.

I had the opposite reaction.

Look at the writer's name Sick.

 

[spacedoodoopistol]

Goddamn it, they had me. Whoever did this should be arrested.

Look at the writer's name Sick.

lol! I didn't catch that.

Kind of weird that they keep including the 49ers in these April Fools prank articles. Last year it was the Steelers using the 49ers with Wallace and now the Giants using the 49ers with Cruz.

I had the opposite reaction.

Not a fan of Cruz? Maybe the idea of tying up that much money? You HAVE said you thought SF should trade Crabby.

 

[NinerSickness]

It's not that I'm not a fan of Cruz, but letting go of the 31st pick AND paying him 8 million a season when the Niners already have Boldin this year would've been a lot to swallow.

If the Niners are intersted in trading draft pick(s), might as well go after Revis.
