Very good...bandwagon fans don't remember the bad days


I watched every game in those years. And man it sucked.... You would get a little corner somewhere in a sports bar on the smallest, worst TV. And people would wonder why you are even torturing yourself to watch it.

I remember bartenders would like at me like I am crazy when I would ask if they were showing the 49ers game. I got this "Are you sure?" look.

I'll second that as far as the time difference. Anyway to get 49ers to start their home games at 0400 in the morning?

didn't Bill Walsh let him play QB and take a snap?
... you don't know who Dan Bunz is.
In my opinion, to be a 49er fan, the minimum one should be doing is WATCHING THE GAMES to be able to hold a conversation with another 49er fan. There is nothing more annoying than to talk to another dude at a party or some event who says he is a 9er fan, but didn't watch the game. Further, a 9er fan should be WATCHING THE GAMES LIVE either on TV or at the stadium. NO EXCUSES!!! Recorded games because you needed to be at a wedding, coed baby shower, or other event clearly don't cut it for me. I give PRIORITY to all games over other events in life and then go live it up afterward. I would make sure my own wedding occurs in the bye week haha

Work is a valid excuse. Not everyone has the luxury of a Monday through Friday job in this economy.

You're NOT a true 49ers fan if...you leave before the final whistle in game 16 and you are 1-14, and your offensive coordinator is Jim Hostler, and the defense is giving up 0ver 600 yards a game, and you are losing 59-0 at home, and your quarterback is Cody Picket and your kicker is Owen Pochman, and the rain is pouring down hard, and you have no umbrella.
if you arent starting to see why the bills fans werent that upset about losing donte witner. and if you werent happy for jeff garcia when he helped the eagles win no matter how much you hate the eagles
