I think it was on The Tonight Show where he tore into some Hendrix, the guy was amazing. Always smiling.

He was playing The Grand Ole Opry at 17.

Real curious who his influenses were, will soon find out when I start with his book.

Have never heard him on the mandolin, and he plays that too.

Or TE Dwight Clark

Not a big deal but you'd never talk Clark in with TE's, yes he lined up all over the place.

I concur, not a big deal but the Associated Press/USA today talked Clark in as a TE.

No not really. There is no Niner fan who would be talking Clark as a TE.

Dwight Clark, the wide receiver whose spectacular last-minute leaping touchdown reception, known as “The Catch,” propelled the San Francisco 49ers toward the first N.F.L. championship in their history and ushered in their dominance of the league through the 1980s, died on Monday in Whitefish, Mont. He was 61.


Everybody considers Dwight Clark a WR. His two pro bowls....WR.

Blake, Dwight Clark was a WR, ok? AP was wrong. Every football card has...WR. He was in the pro bowl as a WR. He was drafted as a WR.

Niner fan here guy, trust me the guy was never a TE. YES....he has lined up there, but he is a WR, ok?

Dude, I have seen every single game Dwight Clark played as a Niner (we got the Niners here in central Cali) he is not a TE, ok? Why fight this guy, just accept the fact you know nothing about it other than what ya read which was wrong.

Blake, I've been a Niner fan since around 1958, I know my team, ok? Clark was a WR who sometimes played tight, that doesn't make him a TE.

We always read how Jim Brown was the best RB ever, right? Actually he was a FB. See how it goes?

Clark played in two pro bowls, not at TE....ok?

My God guy, can't you ever....ok man my bad?

Former San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Dwight Clark took to Twitter to announce he has been diagnosed with ALS.

AP reporter’s mistake: Did the punishment fit the crime?








Correction: An earlier version of this article incorrectly identified the News Media Guild as the Newspaper Guild. This version has been updated.
By Paul Farhi (https://www.washingtonpost.com/people/paul-farhi/)



October 23, 2013
Reporters, you may have noticed, make lots of mistakes. But an error made by an Associated Press reporter in a 112-word story this month has proved particularly damaging — especially to the reporter and his editors — and has raised questions about the appropriate response when a news organization gets its facts wrong.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Blake, what about I saw every game of his pro career don't you understand? The guy was a WR, ok?

Blake, an idiot believes everything he reads. AP has made more than one mistake, ok?

[Blake]

You haven't proven them wrong and they haven't retracted.

You're a buffoon.

[JohnnyD]

You haven't proven them wrong and they haven't retracted.

You're a buffoon.

So forget the fact he was listed as a WR onthe Niners roster?

Forget the fact he played WR in his two pro bowls?

Forget the fact he has been called a WR everywhere else?

Blake, you are 100% wrong, and it's so damn funny watching how ya act about it.

Dwight Clark is not a TE and only a total know nothing would think he ever was.

Show me anywhere where it reads...TE Dwight Clark...come on guy. I have already showed you tons of WR Dwight Clark.

Why is it it's...WR...on all his football cards?

Another Nick Chubb moment for ya son.

[Blake]

"He's not the guy who's going to get by you every time, but he'll get by you if you ask him to," the Hall of Fame quarterback said by phone. "He'll do everything you want him to. He'll block downfield. He'll come in tight and be a small tight end. He never even questioned it."

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwjB6cy3-dneAhXF24MKHSHNDlAQzPwBegQIARAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.latimes.com%2Fsports%2Fnfl%2F la-sp-dwight-clark-als-20180109-story.html&psig=AOvVaw2b__OgcfZt_A3RbUATQLoK&ust=1542493292902320

Guess what hall of fame QB said that.

Take the L along with a diet protein shake, fat idiot.

[JohnnyD]

In the LA Times, Joe Montana said he also played tight end:

"He's not the guy who's going to get by you every time, but he'll get by you if you ask him to," the Hall of Fame quarterback said by phone. "He'll do everything you want him to. He'll block downfield. He'll come in tight and be a small tight end. He never even questioned it."

Dude, didn't I mention that? So you are telling me that made him a TE? Was the FRIG a RB? Didn't he carry the ball? Walter Payton was a QB? Didn't he throw some passes?

Dude, are you really that damn stupid?

Now think dummy, where did Clark...he'd come in....from, yep.....WIDE RECEIVER.

Blake, who was playing WR when Clark was at TE?

What an idiot.

[Blake]

Damn you're retarded.

[JohnnyD]

Damn you're retarded.

Retarded is ignoring the 10000000 mentions of Clark as a WR.

Dude, when GRONK lines up wide, is he a WR?

Is Joe Flacco a WR because Jackson is at QB and Flacco is out wide?

I knew you were stupid just not this damn stupid.
