Q: Whats worse than having Scott Linehan be your #1 candidate for offensive coordinator?
A: He turns down the job!

Not only is he turning the team down, its being rumored he will take the TB OC position.

Not only that, but the most accomplished OC we've interview besides Linehan is also in the mix for the TB job
Great day to be a Niner's Fan!
But don't worry - we'll be interviewing more candidates - none of which are from the teams that just exited the PLAYOFFS according to Barrows:

Also, I wanted to say a little something about Anquan Bolden's actions Sunday:

Boldin, who had four catches for 34 yards while All-Pro teammate Larry Fitzgerald caught nine balls for 152 yards and three touchdowns, sprinted out the back door of Arizona's locker room before some of his elated teammates had made it off the confetti-strewn field from the Halas Trophy presentation.
If this is true, then just add Anquan to the list of players I would never take on my team.
If you can't pumped up about going to the Super Bowl - what exactly is your motivation?
If you are arguing with the offensive coordinator because he's letting Larry the Legend run wild against the Eagles and holding YOU, who has been banged up all playoffs, out, and you can't be happy you just won the biggest game of your life - then you are just selfish. Even TO was happy to play in the Super Bowl and he at least waited to be an ass until they LOST.
It's almost like other athletes don't watch their peers make asses out of themselves and make the necessary adjustments. This is almost worse than Owens - while TO might be the biggest whiner in the game, ultimately he wants what most athletes wants - to win.
Bolden has shown he doesn't care about that - so I say the Cardinals ship him to the Browns, or the Raiders, or the Chiefs, or some other rundown, trifflin' franchise who has no opportunity of competing. THEN, Anquan will be happy with his extra millions, extra catches, and extra losses.
He acts like Luca Brasi MADE him sign that 4 year extension two years ago.
You would think after I saw him lay motionless on the ground against the Jets (for what seemed like a week), to be told not only will you come back from this gruesome injury, but will play in the Super Bowl, that it would be more than enough to ask. Apparently not. So get on with your bad self Anquan - loser. Because thats what a loser attitude sounds like to me.
UPDATE: ESPN has further info on this story:

"I was not given any explanation why I was taken out," Boldin said Monday, during an interview on ESPN's NFL Live, when asked what led to the sideline confrontation. "Like any competitor I wanted to know why."
"I didn't leave through a back door. I tried to get in and out as quickly as possible to beat the media," he said. "I didn't want the story line to be me and Todd getting into it."
BUT, like Kurt Warner's heated exchange with the Cardinals OC, it wouldn't have been as big a deal had Anquan actually stuck around to celebrate with his teammates - but that isn't something a bad teammate would think of.
