Slow down, Grasshopper, it's only June

Question: I think most 49er fans are ecstatic with the rebuilding job of Mike Nolan and Scot McCloughan. I'm starting to get that same feeling I had back in the early days of Bill Walsh. I would like to know if you feel Nolan and the 49ers have greatness in their near future.

Answer: Let me shake my Magic 8-ball on that one. Hmm ... it says, "Ask again later."
