allfury’s comment is baseless. He needs to get a life. I’m frankly very surprised that this blog would choose to retain such blatently racist comments.

This is a fuckin joke and I can't believe [although I have known...] we still have this tool in the front office. But what scares me more is he is now inside and somehow [against all that is good and holy] allowed in the $%#$%@ defensive coaches box during games ...this is insanity!!!

However I hear they have been isolating the little monkey and putting him into unimportant positions. But again just in case any of you pandering idiots keep singing the praises of paraag marathe, please know they do have every intention of removing him completely from the organization ...but these things take time.

I wonder if he’s had any influence on the recent trades & picks… the niners are headed in the right direction, finally!

The Chronicle is totally overstating what P does. He’s just part of the decision-making process, it’s not like he’s sitting around with an abacus and spreadsheets deciding each move. I think it’s easy for the media to look at this young guy and assume the worst, a la Moneyball. But give him a couple years and see what happens. It’s going to take that long for P, Nolan and the rest to dig out of the mess of the previous regime.

I keed, Abhi, I keed!

I wonder if Marathe's proofs and statistical models had anything to do with the starting salary of the new QB. That's a bit steep!

wonder if he was even allowed to play football as a kid? Most aunties have a fatalistic fear of their beta being tackled and breaking something or becoming paralyzed

My mom was this way too but my dad was all for me playing 4 yrs in high school, it was one of the best things I ever did. It really taught me how competitive the world around you can be, plus it was a lot of fun, except for when 270 lb guys would crush you into the ground. My other goal of using football to impress the chicks went largely ignored as the indian girls I was after at 16 were already looking for the next great pre-med student

Even a desi in the front office couldn’t get me to cheer for the Niners.

Trust an Indian (or American-Indian or whatever you want to call him) dude to build statistical models and such…on a related note, there is a guy in baseball, Bill James, who is heavily into using statistics in baseball.
