countries from entering the u.s. the ninth circuit court's decision will be made by a panel of three judges. at a meeting in washington this morning, the president lashed out calling yesterdays court hearing disgraceful. one of the justices asked bluntly if the president could just order a ban on muslims. the justice department lawyer argued that is not what the excutive order says. another justice questioned whether the government had any evidence that connects the seven countries with terrorism and suggested the appeal may be premature. no word on when the court will issue its ruling but a spokesperson for the court previously said it would come this week.

considered the head coach for some time now, but until it became official earlier this week, anything could have happened. but now, 49er fans can rest assured that he is here...and is ready to work. the team tweeted out these photos earlier this afternoon. ceo jed york and general manager john lynch met shanahan on the tarmac.... as soon as he stepped off the plane. we assume they went straight from the airport to team headquarters... as york released images of shanahan and lynch in the locker room. and the two later addressed all employees of the organization. then, shanahan sent a message to the niner faithful. let's hear from the new head coach. "i lived here in middle school as part of the niners organization as a ball boy. won some super bowls back then and can't wait to get started again. just give us some time be patient with us. i promise you guys we are going to work as hard as anyone to do things the right way with good people, high character guys. it's going to be a lot of work, tough work. i promise you guys it will be worth it. we'll do this the right way, i will not let you guys down."

hold back when talking about the warriors' 73-win campaign, which broke the record set by jordan's bulls in the 90s. jordan basically told lacob the achievement is meaningless, a comment which struck a chord with the owner. "people are drinking and having a good time and all that, but there was a moment where he said, you know, '73 don't mean .' he did it, michael jordan did that. and i looked at him and i just decided not to make a big deal of it. i said, you know, you're right, we didn't win it, we had to get better." coincidentally, the warriors host the bulls toniht. it's the last home contest before the team leaves for a three-game road trip, which is headlined by kevin durant's return to oklahoma city on saturday night.
