Easy to see why 49ers' K.J. Wright is a fast rising coaching star (which has become a theme for those associated with coaching SF LBs). Here Wright discusses coaching points for 49ers rookie Jaden Dugger, who's 6-4 — just like Wright (John Lynch joked Wright "drafted himself"):

The most prominent example of a film that was financially viable because of generative AI was “Here” by Robert Zemeckis. Starring Tom Hanks and Robin Wright, it shows a couple living through multiple decades. The film’s budget was ~$50m and wouldn’t be able to cover traditional process for de-aging: ▫️Make-up: Takes hour to put on and can make actors look 10 years younger (but not 50 as the film requires) ▫️CGI: Expensive and long (per NYT, “Persuading us that we’re watching Hanks and Wright in their 20s would have required hundreds of VFX artists, tens of millions of dollars and months of postproduction work.”) Zemeckis says “Here” was able to be made in 2024 but not in 2021 (due to CGI costs). Also by using generative AI, Hanks and Wright could act more naturally without thick make-up (or those CGI dots) on their face. The AI effects were done by Metaphysics (the company’s content head is Ed Ulbrich, the former CEO of Digital Domain, James Cameron’s FX firm). Metaphysics AI tools were particularly useful because of how much video and images there are of Hanks and Wright over the decades (won’t be the case for all actors). Some of those images include 1994’s “Forrest Gump”, which was also directed by Zemeckis starring Hanks and Wright. That banger used a lot of advanced aging effects for the time and won the 1995 Best Visual Effects Oscar. A best case scenario might be instead of a studio spending $200m for a single blockbuster, it could finance and staff up 4 films at $50m (which could reach same visual quality bar using new tech). *** More from NYT: “Here” featurette:

BOMBSHELL: JAGUAR WRIGHT SAYS SHE KNOWS THREE WOMEN WHO WERE SENT TO JEFFREY EPSTEIN’S ISLAND AFTER THEY WERE BRUTALLY TORTURED & RAPED ON A LIVESTREAM JUST LIKE IN THE HOSTEL MOVIES! Jaguar Wright says she helped get three women off Jeffrey Epstein’s pedophile island. She says they auditioned to be models for music videos only to find themselves tortured and raped in a storage container. She tearfully explains the horrific abuse was live-streamed on the dark web, and viewers were bidding for the terrible things that happened to them live online just like a scene from the Hostel films. After enduring this autrocious abuse, Wright claims they then were sent to do Rick Ross music videos. After that, Wright says they were shipped to Epstein island to be “broken in”. We know that Epstein recruited models via multiple modeling agencies that were fronts for child sex trafficking. Jean Luc-Brunel, Epstein’s alleged co-conspirator, ran MC2 Model Management. Rachel Chandler, Epstein’s other alleged child sex trafficker, provided “models” for Brunel’s company. Chandler also ran Midland Agency a “modeling agency” that allegedly was another front for child sex trafficking. Chandler also provided “models” for the pro-pedophile fashion house Balenciaga. Furthermore, Sean “Diddy” Combs has ties to Chandler and has been photographed with her. Also, Frank Giustra, founded Lionsgate Entertainment which put out the Hostel movie series. Giustra has worked with and donated more than $100 million dollars to the Clinton Foundation which we know traffics children. The Hostel films should’ve been listed as documentaries. These sick Satanic pedophile elites love to flaunt their evil — it’s called truth in plain sight.

Late in the 2016 NCAA Men's Basketball Championship, Villanova blew a 10-point lead. With 4.7 seconds left, UNC hit a 3-pointer to tie the game. Villanova's head coach, Jay Wright, called a timeout, and as his players walked to the huddle, they were all saying the same word: “Attitude.” “It's the most important aspect of our program,” Coach Wright explains in his book titled, Attitude. “We wear 'Attitude' wristbands. And when we break a huddle, we say '1, 2, 3, Attitude.'” The test of Attitude, Wright taught his players, is: “Where is your mindset after something bad happens to you?” Where is your mindset after you blow a 10-point lead? Where is your mindset after your opponent hits a 3 to tie the game with 4.7 seconds left? “When I looked into the eyes of our players,” Wright writes, “I saw no anger or regret. No one bemoaned [the UNC player's] 'lucky shot,' or that any of our guys had failed to stop him from grabbing the pass that led to that shot, or anything else.” Instead, “they were all saying, 'Attitude. Attitude. This is what we do. Attitude. This is what we do.'” With this mindset, the players returned to the court. Villanova's Kris Jenkins inbounded the ball to Ryan "Arch" Arcidiacono. Arch dribbled up the left side of the court, crossed half court, cut right towards the 3-point arc, where he underhanded a pass to Jenkins, who caught the ball with 1.3 seconds left, and, in perfect rhythm, jumped then released the ball with 0.6 seconds, and hit a buzzer-beater to win the 2016 NCAA Men's Basketball Championship. Takeaway 1: A primary indicator of physical fitness is recovery time. If you are doing all-out sprint intervals, for instance—people who are physically fit recover from one interval to the next faster than those who are not physically fit. “So then, what is mental fitness?” the mental performance coach Greg Harden likes to ask. “Mental fitness is about recovery time,” Harden says. It's about, as Coach Wright said, where your mindset is after something bad happens to you. After something bad happens, people who are mentally fit recover faster than those who are not. Takeaway 2: Just after Kris Jenkins hit the buzzer-beater, Coach Wright famously barely reacted. Before his guys went back on the court, he explained, “I processed all the potential scenarios.” Most likely, the game was going to go to overtime where UNC would ride their wave of momentum and win the game. “No matter the outcome,” Wright continued, “because of the way our players responded after UNC tied the game ["Attitude. Attitude. This is what we do."]—I felt like they had the greatest lesson in life. I felt like that was an accomplishment that would follow them through their lives.” Ryan Holiday once told me, “You have to get to a place where doing the work is the win and everything else is extra.” Wright got to that place. He had done the work to instill in his players a mindset, he said, “that they would carry with them for the remainder of their days on earth.” “In that sense, I knew we had already won.” Everything else was extra. - - - “The fact is, none of us control what happens to us in life—but we do control our responses to those circumstances...no matter how tough it gets or how much of a challenge you face in the final 4.7 seconds of a game.” — Jay Wright Follow Billy Oppenheimer for more content like this!

The 49ers need Ricky Pearsall to become a 1b WR. That’s what they drafted him in the 1st round to be. They let go Deebo Samuel, Juan Jennings and in a way Brandon Aiyuk because they believe in Ricky Pearsal. RICKYYYYYY has played in 19 games and missed 14 games in his career including 6 due to a gun shot wound. So now the 49ers have brought in THE MOST UNDER-APPRECIATED WR IN NFL HISTORY in Mike Evans, but they need Ricky to be Mike’s Robin like Chris Godwin Jr was. Mike Evans and Chris Godwin Jr. combined for 20 touchdowns in 2020 when they won the Super Bowl. They both had 1,000 yards receiving in the same season 4 times and combined for 15 or more touchdowns 6 times in 9 years. That is the production the 49ers need from this WR group to keep up with the Seahawks and the Rams. Mike Evans even at 32 going on 33 years old, will still draw coverage. Ricky Pearsall has the talent to do it and showed flashes last year against the Seahawks and Cardinals when he had 104 and 117 yards receiving. He now has to make defenses respect him and show his 49ers teammates and the organization that he can stay healthy to be the guy they drafted him to be. If Ricky doesn’t show it this year, the 49ers won’t hesitate to give the reigns to 2nd round Rookie De’Zhaun Stribling who they believe was the best WR in this year’s draft. It’s a make or break year for Ricky Pearsall. And his spot in the offense is the key for the 49ers Super Bowl run. #49ers #SanFrancisco #RG3 #OuttaPocket #NFL #FoxSports

Ian Wright says Kylian Mbappe could go on to be the greatest World Cup player ever. Ian Wright: "Watching him the other day, when I went and watched him live against Iraq, you could tell there's something different about his energy and the fact that he is the leader of the team. Right, Pat? He's the leader of the team. You could see it. You know, almost like he's welcoming people in. You see the celebration with Dembélé, who has won a couple of Ballond'ors or could go on to win another one. He's embracing it. I think that he's gone to that place where he's the leader of this team, and he's not bothered about that. Just maturity as well." Roy Keane: "Is that just maturity as well." Ian Wright: "Yeah. I think so. Roy." Roy Keane:: "Getting a bit older, a bit wiser." Presenter: "He's 27 now. You know, he's been in the game for almost a decade." Patrick Viera: "He's a different player from the last World Cup. He's got more maturity. He understands the game much better, about how he has to bring the players around him because, at the end, he needs those players to perform." Presenter: "He's only two goals behind Messi in terms of World Cup scorers." Ian Wright: "Yeah, but when we look at it, he's won the World Cup when he was 18. He just missed out on penalties in '22, and now he's in another one. You know, we're talking about somebody who could probably go on to be the greatest ever in respect to the World Cup. But at the moment, at 27 now... it seems like he's in exactly the right place where he needs to be right now."

Fight AND practice highlights of that 49ers-Titans joint session.... 🏈 Brock Purdy was dominant facing a familiar Robert Saleh defense. 13 has been locked in all camp. Especially good in the red zone, where he found Deebo for multiple TDs and again connected with Luke Farrell (growing theme) 🏈Bullying vibe, especially early, from the 49ers defense. Tennessee took exception, hence the fights. A first-play Upton Stout shove and a second-play Dre Greenlaw/Fred Warner TFL on a pitch right set a very physical tone. Then, after Renardo Green leveled Carnell Tate, matters exploded 🏈Two Titans' O-linemen eventually ejected. Skirmish activity extended into back half of practice after 49ers DT Osa Odighizuwa sacked Cam Ward and grabbed his shoulder pad. Tennessee didn't like that 🏈Titans seemed to have some rushing success vs 49ers, though it's very hard to gauge without watching the tape. Ward's accuracy was very inconsistent. Lowlight for him was Ji'Ayir Brown's pick 6, which followed the Osa vs. Dan Moore Jr. Round II 🏈Big picture on 49ers offense: They'll need to be a top-5 unit this year, and Purdy has given every indication that he can guide that type of success from his QB spot. Layered passes, scrambles, elite RZ production... all there 🏈49ers vet DB Nate Hobbs was very active and physical for the 49ers today... seemed to be at the center of much of the action 🏈49ers safety Marques Sigle notched a couple PBUs 🏈Second-year corner Jakob Robinson logged a leaping INT against Titans QB Will Levis. It was intended for WR Mason Kinsev, who seemed to be doing a lot of today's jawing — including one session vs 49ers rookie safety Jalen Stroman 🏈I found Levis throwing a pick with Levi's Stadium in the background was funny 🏈One good red-zone rep for the 49ers involved rookie LBs Jaden Dugger and Larry Worth — nearly 14 feet of combined wingspan between them — flush Levis out of the pocket and force an incompletion. Was an imposing sight; Worth was FIRED UP 🏈Romello Height had some good, explosive work against Moore — a starting LT — that disrupted Ward. A lot of emotion in this one; Height was fired up on the sideline. Offsides flags still a concern 🏈Warner is a strategic instigator — talked quite a bit in Ward's direction in between series🍿. Also a good face-to-face confrontation with the much shorter RB Tyjae Spears 🏈Raheem Morris blitzed Warner numerous times today. The most I can remember Warner being asked to go straight after the QB. Another data point in evaluating this evolving 49ers' defense 🏈Former Stanford WR Elic Ayomanor had some good battles vs 49ers CBs Renardo Green (great coverage on a deep ball) and Jack Jones. Ayomanor beat Jones on a double move but Jones recovered for a last-second PBU 🏈Next up: Preseason opener vs these same Titans. Robert Saleh said Tennessee will play everyone and Kyle Shanahan said the 49ers will sit most starters. All in all, coaches happy with the productive work today. Good eval opportunity for the 49ers coming up in an actual game environment...

Nick Wright says there should be some real accountability within the media, for all the absolute atrocious LeBron James takes: “ There weren’t even hot takes, there was just the accepted conventional wisdom throughout the course of this year. Going into the season, LeBron contract sure is a Albatros for the Lakers even though if he would have taken the league minimum it wouldn’t have open up hardly any cap space. But set the cap part aside, they was just like no, he’s not worth max level player any more. If anybody out here said LeBron worth the max, they would be laughed at. Now the games matter does he look like he’s worth the max? All year long the conventional wisdom, listen LeBron still good, but you know at 41 and he’s older than the other old guys. Steph, Durant, Kawhi, like you know, those guys are still top 10 players in the league, All-NBA caliber players which by the way Steph and Kawhi were. LeBron is in a different place in his career. What are those guys doing right now? Steph having the time of his life at Coachella after playing poorly in a play-in game. Kawhi is doing whatever he’s doing after being locked up in a play-in game, Kevin Durant is I don’t know struggling to find ways just to get shots up against a not great Lakers defense while LeBron is giving you 24,8,10 and setting up Luke Kennard, Marcus Smart, Rui Hachimura and Deandre Ayton for the exact shots on the exact spot on the court they want to be.” (Via What’s Wright? with Nick Wright)
