Hopefully Frank Gore can control his temper with the coaches as of frustration

A running back who desperately wants a new contract and is nearly as important to his team isAuthentic Steelers Jersey
actually in 49ers camp when we detail the comings and goings of Chris Johnson. He is just not very happy. And he is apparently not very pleasant to be around right now.

Frank Gore is frustrated and has snapped at some of the team's assistant coaches as he continues to wait a new contract offer, one team source told CSN Bay Area.

Gore is scheduled to make $5 million this season, but after that, he is a free agent and he wants to get paid. He accumulated four-straight years of 1,000-yard seasons from 2006-09 before missing five games due to a fractured hip last year. Plus, he is 28 years old, meaning he doesn't have much time left in his prime as a running back.

Although Gore originally threatened to hold out from training camp, just like somebody else we know in Tennessee who actually did, he has been working out and playing in the preseason games.

That is also a sore point with Gore, because he feels like he is playing more in the preseason than in years past, and since it's a contract year, he's claiming the 49ers are putting him at greater risk for injury. The flip side to that, though, is San Francisco could want to see how his hip is responding to game action.

Gore also has the same problem as Johnson because even if he wants a trade from San Francisco, it's unlikely to Pittsburgh Steelers throwback Jerseys
happen, because the cost to another team would be too great. Even if he was traded, his new squad would have to come up with a lucrative new deal. At this point, that's probably impossible. So, the two sides will continue to meet.

"The best thing we can say is we're doing everything we can to make Frank a 49er for life and whether that gets accomplished in the near future or not remains to be seen," 49ers general manager Trent Baalke said this week.

Well, that doesn't tell us much, does it? How about it, Frank? What if you don't get that extension? "I'd be upset, but I'm still a football player," Gore said. "I want to be here for my whole career. That's up to upstairs, the team. If they want me here, I want to be here. I'm just going to come out every day and practice hard." Hopefully he control his temper with the coaches.

Here finally what I want to say is Frank Gore showed up for camp, conducted himself like a professional, is playing by all the rules. The 49ers need to do the right thing and work out an extension for him. Unlike Chris Johnson who hasn't shown up to camp, Gore is showing he is a team player and wants to be there for his teammates. He is at least trying to do the right thing, the team needs to meet him in the middle and make him an offer to keep him in the bay area for the rest of his career.
