Payout Perspective:

College Football ruled the night as it usually does during the fall.  There was also the PPV event with Canelo Alvarez on during the night as well.  The ratings for these types of events are pretty good considering the abundance of other things you can do on a Saturday night.

The Kyle Shanahan car accident happened on July 14. It was a matter of public record. The 49ers wanted to keep it quiet until training camp opened on July 25. And, instead of reporting publicly-available facts, the reporters who knew about it complied. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/49ers-wanted-to-keep-shanahan-accident-quiet-and-some-in-the-media-complied

Imagine someone from the Bay Area getting into a car accident with the head coach of the 49ers and not saying anything about it for 11 days. People put their breakfast on Instagram now.

What are some explanations for why this person in the other car hasn’t spoke up?

Thad Jean! Good fight #PFL
