Reports: 49ers sign WR Brandon Aiyuk to four-year, $120M deal
After months of discontent, wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk signed a four-year, $120 million extension to stay with the San Francisco 49ers, ESPN and NFL Network reported Thursday. Aiyuk had publicly requested a trade out of San Francisco, garnered interest from multiple teams and conducted a "hold-in" at 49ers practices. The Pittsburgh Steelers were among the front-runners to acquire Aiyuk in a trade and had permission to discuss a long-term contract offer with the 26-year-old. Aiyuk long contended that he deserved more contract security through a lucrative extension, saying in March that he is "trying to get what I deserve." He...

San Francisco Coffee Worth Seeking
San Francisco continues to be a key part of my coffee education. I’ve visited the city on an annual basis since 1995. Initially, it was fun to luxuriate in bohemian coffeehouses like Caffe Trieste in North Beach. By the mid 2000s, I started focusing on specialty coffee and found the Blue Bottle stand at the Ferry Building Farmers Market and their side street Hayes Valley kiosk before the company expanded in the U.S. and Asia. Ritual Coffee Roasters and the formerly controversial Four Barrel Coffee both captured my imagination in the Mission. That neighborhood is also where I first tried Philz Coffee, which became a major player in the Bay Area, Southern California and Chicago. The Mission was also the launching pad for Linea Caffe, which Bay Area coffee icon Andrew Barnett expanded to a Potrero Hill roastery.
