Poll
Who should win the National League MVP award?
Your vote has been counted, thank you for voting.
We have more questions than answers:
• Are the 49ers really as good as they looked in Sunday's convincing 30-22 victory over the Packers in Green Bay, and is it too soon to book a flight to New Orleans?
• Will the NFL pay its officials whatever it takes to get them back on the field before the replacements cost a team a victory or cause a coach to have a heart attack – or, worse, a player to be seriously injured?
• After beating Colorado 30-28 Saturday to stun a Pacific-12 Conference team for the second year in a row, will Sacramento State do better than last year, when the Hornets shocked Oregon State in the season opener but wound up just 4-7?
• With the Giants winning two of three against the Dodgers over the weekend, and two games on national TV, will baseball writers in the rest of the country finally agree that catcher Buster Posey should be the National League's MVP?
• With three more games against the Angels, three against the Orioles, three against the Yankees and seven – yup, seven – against the Rangers, can the A's possibly hold on and make the playoffs?
• If your four teams have not announced the signing of any players just two weeks before the scheduled opening of the season, can you really call yourself a "professional" sports league?
