AROUND THE WEB:
-- We’re finally getting some of the juicy details from Kiara Mia about her date with Jimmy Garoppolo last week.
Kiara Mia caught up with TMZ this weekend and raved about the 49ers quarterback.
“Jimmy and I had an amazing dinner. And he treated me with so much respect and class,” she said. “And, honestly, we’re friends.”
“But on that note let me tell you this much,” she continued. “I’ve never been a fan of football, I’m officially a fan of football and I can promise the 49ers that they will make Super Bowl and win because everything I touch turns to gold.”
When asked if she and Garoppolo will go on another date, Kiara Mia said, “You guys are going to have to find that out yourselves.”
“He radiates on a whole different level. It was fun,” she said of the date. “He’s sexy as f---.”
Of the after-dinner activities, she said, “It was definitely my favorite dessert.
“It means a lot,” Hader said, “having the Milwaukee support and just knowing they know my true character and just forgive me for my past because it’s not who I am today.”
“It’s the support of the home team, the home player,” manager Dave Roberts said. “Obviously he addressed the team and felt very remorseful. I didn’t hear what he said. I know the organization, the players, the coaches are there to support him. Obviously, he’s remorseful. The fan base was here to support him. That’s what I saw.”
QUOTE OF THE DAY: “Obviously, we have had conversations about everything that’s going on in the league, and teams always try to improve, but I’m comfortable with the guys we have. I think we have a lot of options." -- Alex Cora, on the non-waiver trade deadline
Tom Brady reportedly as excited as ever for football season
