The San Francisco 49ers took a beating on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks https://www.49ersfanshop.com/Deion-Sanders-Jersey , but there were some hallmarks. One of the highlights from the 49ers offense was this gem from Nick Mullens to Dante Pettis. While the touchdown itself speaks all things of awesome, it’s the celebration at the end that has me scratching my head.So herein lies the question: Is that a Kamehameha or a Hadoken Pettis is busting out at the end? There’s a definite beam struggle with Kendrick Bourne who may be doing a different technique, but which is it? You’re probably racking your brain on those names. Since I’m the video game guy, and I lived in Japan for a year as a foreign exchange student, I’m probably the guy to look into this. I’ll help you out: KamehamehaThe Kamehameha is the signature attack from the Japanese anime Dragon Ball. It’s loosely translated as, “turtle blast” based on it being taught to main character Son Goku from Muten Roshi AKA Kame Sennin (turtle hermit). Roshi lives in the aptly named Kame House (Turtle House—you’re getting it) and it took him his entire life to perfect the attack. The technique revolves around the user placing the bottoms of both palms together in a twist at their waist gathering energy, then extending their arms, palms outward, but still connected and a massive blue wave of ki flies out. Son Goku learns it in a matter of minutes as a young boy. This was very early in the series and by the time Dragon Ball became Dragon Ball Z (where Goku was an adult) the Kamehameha became this massive beam of destruction capable of destroying planets if Goku was powered up enough (a Kamehameha never destroyed a planet Roger Craig Jersey , but Goku’s son, Son Gohan used it to kill Cell...errr nevermind) . Here’s the Kamehameha in action where Goku channels a massive blast to go into a beam struggle with Vegeta’s similar galick-ho attack (garlic blast...basically): HadokenThe Hadoken (loosely translated as, “surge fist) is the signature attack of the Capcom video game, Street Fighter. It’s used mainly by Ryu and his best friend Ken Masters. The attack is a Kyokushin-style attack taught to them by Gouken. In lore, it’s not a heated fireball, but it’s a fireball that packs the same punch as the user—but gives them some range to give blunt force. To perform it, the player just has to input a quarter circle forward starting from the down position on the joystick and any punch button. The faster the fireball depends on the strength of the punch pressed (you could vary the speeds to throw off your opponent). The attack later was used by other characters in various ways, but it also got morphed into ridiculousness by the time the SF characters hit the VS. series and Ryu’s shinku Hadoken (“true void surge fist”) covered up the screen. The thing to take from this is the Hadoken is performed in a very similar fashion to the kamehameha, especially the shinku Hadoken where Ryu has to wind up for it. Here’s the Hadoken Ronnie Lott Color Rush Jersey , the shinku version is later in the video: So that brings us back to Pettis’ celebration. Was he referencing Dragon Ball or Street Fighter? Does this ultimately matter in the scheme of things? Not really, other than it’s a definite contender with his cat call celebration he made all the way back in Week 1. The 49ers tweeted out Kamehameha with it, so that might answer our question. But what do you think? Is it a Hadoken or a kamehameha?

To kick off our series, we’ll be covering groups of players who find themselves on the roster bubble. John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan, in their third year, have built a roster that features the most competition since the pair took over in 2017. Today, we’ll look at two members of the secondary and two from the offensive line who’ll need a solid camp to earn their role this season.S Antone Exum Jr.Exum was among the eight different combinations fielded by the 49ers’ defense last season. He started seven games https://www.49ersfanshop.com/Jerry-Rice-Jersey , totaling 40 tackles, seven pass breakups, and an interception returned for a touchdown in 2019. His chances of making the team’s final roster are partially dependent on the return timetable of Jimmie Ward, who suffered a broken collarbone during OTAs. Ward’s expected back before the start of the regular season, but his absence during camp gives Exum a chance to compete for a spot against the likes of Adrian Colbert and Tarvarius Moore.C Wesley JohnsonJohnson was brought in by the 49ers this offseason to fill the temporary void at center left by starter Weston Richburg, who’s still recovering from knee surgery. Johnson spent the majority of his career with the New York Jets with forgettable results, earning an abysmal 31.3 overall grade from Pro Football Focus in 2017. Richburg’s absence will give Johnson ample opportunity throughout camp to earn a spot as a backup, but for now, he’s a longshot to make the 49ers’ final 53.CB Emmanuel MoseleyMoseley may have this group’s best shot at a roster spot. The former undrafted free agent out of Tennessee was the team’s highest-paid player on the practice squad last season Colin Kaepernick Jersey , indicating both a keen interest around to league and the 49ers’ willingness to keep him around. Moseley authored a strong training camp and preseason as a rookie. If he can do the same in 2019, he stands a good chance at rising above Greg Mabin and sixth-round rookie Tim Harris on the depth chart.G Ben GarlandAlong with Johnson, Garland was another offseason addition to the 49ers’ offensive line. The 31-year-old spent the last three years with the Atlanta Falcons, including 2016 under then-offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan. Garland earned a respectable 69.3 overall grade from PFF in his four starts last season, good for 14th among qualifying guards. Given first-team reps at center during OTAs, Garland’s versatility coupled with a strong showing at camp gives him a decent shot at landing a backup spot behind Person, Tomlinson, and Richburg.
