Perhaps owner Jed York was right on when he guaranteed that his 0-5 San Francisco squad would win the division back in October. The 49ers, after losing to the Chargers on Thursday, are currently 5-9.

ESPN.com’s Page 2 is counting down the 12 Days of Christmas with a dozen letters to Santa Claus from newsworthy sports figures. Quite a concept, and quite a disappointment that we didn’t think of it first. Anyway, Enjoy!
