He's a force for us, and I love playing alongside

The Invasion of Dallas The 49ers Faithful showed up big time on the road this weekend. The Cowboys ran their "White Out" promotion for the game, where they encouraged all of their fans wear white in hopes to hide the red 49ers fans. I'm no expert, but one would assume it would make the red stand out more, which it did. The nights prior to the game, the restaurants and bars in the Arlington area were flooded with 49ers
