SF forced into rebuilding

[Patler]

Evidently, the damage to his left big toe is so extensive that there was some amount of discussion of amputating it... Not hard to see why he retired. He's on the fence of the HoF with guys like Sterling, who would probably have been in if not for injury...

All Sterling Sharpe needed was a few more years. Statistically, he was way ahead of Michael Irvin when he retired, and they came into the league the same year.

I wonder if this is wind-down phase of their stadium financing plan.
