Just saw a press box attendant stop Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald and demand he show his credential. Better to have a fleece jacket.

Kaepernick just threw two 12-yard passes about 150-mph and through Ricardo Lockette's hands. Fired up. Ready to go.

“@RAIDER514: @CorkOnTheNFL I this the first SB you're covering?” -- Fourth. First three were blowouts -- Broncos, Ravens and Buccaneers.

Yeah, the Super Bowl pre-game warm-ups are different. Vernon Davis just had photo opp moment with Jesse Jackson.

by Tim Kawakami via twitter 2/3/2013 9:57:49 PM
Colin Kaepernick's 20-yard throws eerily similar to Buster Posey's throws to second on steal attempts. In other words, strong & accurate.

No lineup changes for 49ers: Yep, Colin Kaepernick starting at QB ahead of Alex Smith (less drama than last trip here Nov. 25).

by Cam Inman via twitter 2/3/2013 10:04:03 PM
David Akers working on short field-goal attempts. Right down the middle on every one.

Harbaugh brothers just had a quick meet-and-shake hands moment

Hasn't done anything with snaps & holds yet, but looks fine in early kicks. RT @HardwoodJohnson how does Akers look??

Akers looks like he's hitting everything well in warm-ups. First clear miss was from 60, so no big deal. And then another off crossbar.

by Tim Kawakami via twitter 2/3/2013 10:14:36 PM
David Akers clanked one off the upright, and he came up a few yards short from 60 yards. He also hit the crossbar from 60, drilled 55-yarder

by Steve Corkran via twitter 2/3/2013 10:15:11 PM
By informal listening test based on cheers during warmups, seem to be more Ravens fans here. But maybe 49er fans are still tailgating . . .

Big photo op right now with Jim Harbaugh and commish Goodell. Wonder if they're talking about Alex Smith's concussion?

by MercPurdy via twitter 2/3/2013 10:20:02 PM
David Akers very accurate at other end of the field. Looks good out to 55 yards. Just came up well short, wide left from 60.

by Steve Corkran via twitter 2/3/2013 10:20:20 PM
By comparison, Ravens kicker Justin Tucker nailed two 65-yard field goals in pre-game warm-ups. Edge: Ravens.

Harbaugh brothers have chatted several times in last 30 minutes--each time the cameras come running and brothers get outta there.

Could top pick A.J. Jenkins' first NFL catch be in a Super Bowl? He's active, and it wouldn't be that surprising, quite honestly.
