...cause these clown shoes are gone. It only took eight seasons of awful. So many Sundays I drank until I was numb. These two Sundays in 2006 were especially terrible. http://www.nfl.com/videos/san-francisco-49ers/09000d5d800e6d9c/Chiefs-41-49ers-0 http://www.nfl.com/videos/san-francisco-49ers/09000d5d800ef887/Bears-41-49ers-10 I'm not even gonna go back to 2005. That is just a drunken blur of a year. Ah s**t, I'm already looking at it, so here ya go. You can watch Frank run a 72-yard TD at least. http://www.nfl.com/videos/san-francisco-49ers/09000d5d8003b4fc/Redskins-52-49ers-17 I can't exclude 2007 and busted-shoulder Alex, can I? Right after Mike Nolan's dad passed away. So awful. http://www.nfl.com/videos/san-francisco-49ers/09000d5d80426905/Seahawks-24-49ers-0 So much pain. So much alcohol. But now we've got these guys... ...and many others, and life is so much better. So give thanks for these good times, cause it was pretty damn dark around here for 8 years. Go Niners. (I re-sized these photos, but apparently that doesn't do anything at all? ) EDIT: Derek Smith removed because he had more supporters than naysayers.

For me it was the great cody pickett ken dorsey debate of 2004 . That was the lowest point of my life as a fan. How did any of us have a dog in that fight? That must be what its like to be a tards fan!

OMG dude I feel your pain. Thank you Balkee, Harbaugh, and Jed York for turning this whole thing around. Those three guys are the reason why where we are as of now.

Gotta disagree with Derek Smith. Dude was a beast until he wound up truning into a cyclops due to injury. The guy still tried to play 1-eyed.

Agreed. I'm glad we're out of those god awful dark, dismal days of SF football but Derek Smith was a pretty damn good players until that injury.

Oh goodness, flashbacks! I'd rather just erase that all from memory, but I guess it's useful for perspective. Can't take these Harbaugh years for granted.
