Can someone fill me in on the Niner game? I was skiing 1st half and I could only catch updated on the radio during the 2nd half. Specifically, how did Atlanta lose the ball when they were in field goal range on their 2nd to last drive and why the heck didn’t the kick a field goal at the very end to tie it and go to overtime?[/quote]
The final score was 28-24 so a field goal would have only meant losing by 1 pt instead of 4, unless I am missing something else that you saw in the game.[/quote]
Thanks, I just talked to my Dad on the Phone. I thought it was a 3 point game.

I’m curious to know why Jim Harbaugh won’t do an interview with Fox Sports. Was there something Fox Sports has done to draw his ire?[/quote]
He doesn’t do interviews with anyone at all other than the mandatory press conferences each week and immediately after the game. I assume you’re referring to when they were interviewing Eddie D and some of the players in the locker room right after the game ended.
I was rooting against the SF Giants in the MLB World Series and I didn’t like the Niners up until last week when I watched them dismantle the Green Bay Fackers. I was sold on San Francisco after that game. They are a complete football team – their offence is dynamic, led by Colin Kaepernick, there defence is aggressive and merciless and they have quality coaching.
I have no doubt the 49ers would have beat the Patriots, had New England not had their worst playoff performance in a long time (the amount of mucked 1st and 3rd downs was undoubtedly an agony to witness for any Patriots fan). I knew it when the Ravens had taken a two-score lead and Brady was at Raven’s 20, scrambling at 4th down and ultimately killed the ball instead of running what was actually a wide open 4 yards for a 1st down. Even an ON Patriot’s team would have struggled against the 49ers.
So excited for this game. Everyone saw what happened the last time that Harbaugh had an extra week to game plan and prep Kap… They smashed the Packers.
I think that they will definitely have some tricks up their sleeves for the Ravens. Their aging D will be able to keep up with the speed of SF’s read option and will struggle to cover VD.
Also, obviously I’m excited that my team won but it is a bummer to see Tony Gonzales retire (presumably) without a ring. He is the GOAT at his position and has been a great player/class act for almost 2 decades.
SF has given up only 10 points in the second halfs of their last two playoff games (would be 3 if SF didn’t give up that garbage time TD that didnt matter to Green Bay) while Baltimore has needed 38 second half points in their last two second halfs in order to come back and win.

How was the party on castro street? Corn hole still work?[/quote]
That’s so typical of a losing fan. Resort to some overused stereotype that takes zero thought to throw out there. Fuck, I don’t live within 150 miles of SF anyways.
Are you the Falcons fan who punched a Niners fan after the game and got stabbed in the neck in return? Because that’s what the Falcons brought to the game yesterday, a pair of weak, soft fists to a knife fight. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Cheer up Pat. 154 years of professional sports in Atlanta and only ONE championship the whole time. You guys are due. Maybe there will be another one before we start colonizing motherfucking MARS!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
But right now, I ask that you please refer to SF as Titletown USA after the Niners destroy the Edgar Allens in two weeks.
Hey Pat, I’ll bet when this play happened you thought you might actually be going to New Orleans, huh? I’ll bet you were flipping the fuck out when this happened and you and all your buddies and that cheap-shit dome you call a football stadium started high-fiving each other and thoughts of how you were gonna spend Super Bowl Sunday were running through mind and all that shit. What sort of beer should we bring over to Jebediah’s house? Should I wear my Matt Ryan home jersey or my Roddy White road jersey? Or maybe that old Chris Chandler jersey I buried in the backyard after the last Super Bowl they were in?
But Pat, then you probably looked down over at the Niners sidelines to see how far into their shells the FIVE TIME SUPER BOWL CHAMPION SAN FRANCISCO FORTY-NINERS were shrinking and you saw this guy. That’s when you realized that this was no ordinary team, not some fucking sad-sack, piece of shit team from a fucking loser sports town like Atlanta the little birds you cheer for were playing. Oh no, this was a team with CLASS and HISTORY and EXCELLENCE and motherfucking BALLS OF STEEL standing over there on the visitors’ sideline.
Right about then you realized your wife was right and maybe you should have put on that pair of Depends after all because you knew that the most dynamic player in the NFL with the best offensive line in football protecting him was about to start rifling some more passes downfield like the pure pocket-passer he proved he can be and you shit yourself just a little bit right then and there.
So when Gore ran in, untouched I might add, you couldn’t even sit down and cry into your beer like all the fans around you were because you didn’t want to smear your shit all over the inside of your ass cheeks and those faggy pink Falcons boxers your wife bought you last year in a failed attempt to cheer you up after they scored all of TWO points against the Giants last year.

All I asked was whether your cornhole survived the celebration. Geez, don’t get all mad about it. You’re so sensitive.

In all seriousness, congrats. It was a hard fought battle, and you won. So congrats on your win.

Kaepernick was not a factor in this game by the way.
