Mike Singletary moons team

Mike Singletary, who replaced Mike Nolan a week ago, has had an eventful first week as head coach of the San Francisco 49ers.

Everyone (unless you've been living under a rock) has heard about or seen Mike Singletary's post-game interview following the 49ers embarrassing 34-13 ass-whooping by the Seattle Seahawks. Some think that a public forum might not have been the appropriate outlet for the rant. But what he did at halftime was hilarious. He mooned his team.
"I used my pants to illustrate that we were getting our tails whipped on Sunday and how humiliating that should feel for all of us. I needed to do something to dramatize my point; there were other ways I could have done it but I think this got the message across. I am excited about having the team back at practice on Monday so we can get back to work."
What's interesting is Vernon Davis, after getting mooned by his head coach at halftime, thought it would be a good idea to slap Brian Russell in the head. If he (the team) received that halftime talk, he should have known that he (and the team) was on thin ice.
