The Media is really annoying me. Sure everyone is giving us lip service, but what about air time? All I hear about are the Brocos, Skins, Bmore, and a few other East Coast teams. Shoot, I hear more about the Packers than the Niners. We did something nobody, not even Niner fans thought we could do. I dont mean win, I mean dominant the Packers. Where is the love and the film break down?

I thought you would be used to this by now.

Jerry Jones and America's team control the NFL media like the Cohn's control the Press Democrat

I am starting to get excited about Sunday. In a few days I'll be very excited and nearly ready to play myself. Let's go NINERS!!!!

Was so excited last week that I could barely contain myself! Now I'm more relaxed and will enjoy the week more! :) Beating GB at their house was a huge hurdle and set up the year nicely. They made a statement and they made it playing very conservatively and without the heroics needed against NO. That says they have a lot they did not show and the year should just be better and better.

With no need for Smith to pass their way to victory and no turnovers by our D, we have so much more fuel in the tank. Weeks 2, 4, 6, 11, 12 and 15 are against very solid teams but none of them are as balanced (offense/defense or pass/run) as the niners. And other than weeks 11 and 12, there is recovery time between all the most difficult games.

Chicago and then NO are going to be two great weeks at 11 and 12, but by then a lot could happen. NOs might implode and Cutler might become Cutler. :)

If we stay good, we'll be treated like the Spurs of the NFL. That's how it was in the 90s. Thing is though, SF is the #6 TV market. Outside of the big 3, only Philly and Dallas are bigger than the Bay Area....and LA has no team.

SF should be the headline West Coast team. But before us, the Chargers were good, and they got the short shaft from the national media too.

These Power Rankings mean absolutely nothing. If you're looking for respect...we're getting a little now...a lot of it grudging, but it's there. They don't want to talk about us though. There's no drama on our team.

Who cares about the story...its the damn football on the field. We are a very good and potentially great team. Why wouldn't people be interested in that?

The people who produce sports segments looking for ratings. The same people that reported from jets camp every single day.

Every time I see the Jets on any sports broadcast, I instantly turn it off.

"The Spurs of the NFL" ..... I LIKE THAT

I don't know about you, but I'd rather be the Lakers of the NFL, not the Spurs.

i have heard little on the cowboys so your theory doesn't work...

turning on espn all i hear is RG3, Peyton & the Jets

As Franklin Roosevelt once said about Republican opposition to his policies...."I welcome their hatred".

How does this relate to the Niners and national media? Whatever gives them more motivation to succeed is a good thing...

Cheers!

they loving us now
