the domestic violence issue comes up again with reuben foster. washington signs him and today i think the redskins organization got a pretty good dose from the local media. they have been having attendance problems the once very popular redskins having trouble drawing people and this probably isn't going to help. and i think their coach jay gruden got a good dose of what's in store for him. a lot of questions, a whirlwind in fact of questions aimed at him. lots of the issues need resolving before foster can even think about playing again. and even then, it's not a sure thing according to gruden. >> you know, there's no guarantee he is ever going to play here to be honest with you. he has a lot of work to do personally, with the team, with the nfl with himself before even thinks about playing football again. now, this is a young athlete. a young person who got himself into some trouble. we want to find out what happened. >> meanwhile, as far as the

49ers go, i think -- nick mullens was under siege last sunday against tampa as the 49ers got pummeled by the buccaneers. sacked four times was mullens, intercepted a couple of times, hit nine times, no touchdown passes. 29-9 the final. that sums it up. five games now left for the 49ers. mullens trying to make the best of it. what else can you do? >> very frustrating. we never got in rhythm. you watch the film, see where you can improve and that's what we're so excited about this week. we get to come back, go to work today and be very productive and we are executing our best on sunday. >> good luck against the seahawks up in the great northwest. meantime, a lot of excitement about the raider game this sunday in oakland. not because of the raiders but because one of the outstanding young quarterbacks is coming to

town. patrick mahomes with the kansas city chiefs. he is familiar with jon gruder as the two worked together a little bit when jon gruden had the show on espn about the quarterbacks. here's a little dose. >> you're a gun slinger? >> yes. >> you live on a planet i have never been on. you know that? >> unbelievable arm. mahomes, 37 touchdown passes already this year leading the chiefs to a 9-2 record. he is just extremely exciting to watch no matter what. in fact, says he reminds him of a hall of fame quarterback. >> he has a playing style that remind of favre. he is a young favre. i think that's why andy reid went and got him. he makes a lot of plays when there's nothing there and doesn't quit. i don't have time to talk about him anymore.

ha ha! >> of course, he was referring to brett favre, the great green bay packer quarterback. stanford women's basketball always a powerhouse. and the news got even better for them today. >> i chose to attend stanford university. >> whoo!!! >> the number one recruit in the country out of high school. haley jones grew up in santa cruz, the high school in san jose. number one recruit. 6-1, averaged 21 points and 10 rebounds a game as a junior in high school. she was the player of the year in california always good when he was down at the eddie debartolo senior hall of fame at the museum down there at levi's. all stars helping kids an event honoring six bay area nonprofits. ronnie is also on the committee that selects the top four college football teams to play for the national title. our joe fonzi was down there

today and asked him about that new job. >> tough decision there about who. depends what happens this weekend i guess. >> i'll say this. one of the great things i have learned is that you don't say anything about them. ha ha! >> see there, frank, were you talking and, you were talking and missed out on the funny stuff. >> i know i did. >> before you interrupt, steph curry will not play tomorrow night against toronto. they are going to wait until saturday. he missed several games due to the groin ine. >> really. >> i hope anyway. >> good night.

all right, i'm moving my infantry division augmented by a battalion of orcs from lord of the rings. we flank the tennessee volunteers and the north once again wins the battle of gettysburg. not so fast. remember, the south still has two infantry divisions, plus superman and godzilla.

n-n-n-no, orcs are magic; superman is vulnerable to magic. not to mention you already lost godzilla to the illinois cavalry and hulk. why don't you just have robert e. lee charge the line with shiva and ganesh? you guys ready to order? hang on, honey. shiva and ganesh, the hindu gods, against the entire union army? and orcs. i'll be back. koothrappali: excuse me. ganesh is the remover of obstacles and shiva is the destroyer. when the smoke clears, abraham lincoln will be speaking hindi and drinking mint julepsve and . what do you recommend for someone who worked up a man-sized appetite from a morning of weight training and cardio funk? a shower. i'll take the heart smart platter.
