Crowd

I did my part my voice is gone.

49er fans have never been known as the loudest fans in the NFL. I wish we were though. Playing in places like Seattle or Kansas City are always very hard on teams.

Today I thought "What a p***y fans team I've chosen to cheer for" That's like cheerig for Bayern Munich, b/c their "fans" are known as boring, quiet morons.
Then again, it's my fav team. Period.

quite as all hell.

I was at the game today... the main reason the game wasn't sold out and was not hyped was the overly controlling martial law-esque police presence that is still residual from the Niner Raider preseason Debacle... Candlestick isn't the same... they think we are a fanbase of criminals now.... when I used to get to the stick at 8:30 and it was packed... grills going and people playing catch... now the gates were just opening and the lots took about 2 hours longer to fill...and overall deterring people from coming to the game all together...

still I lost my voice... (oh and I met and shook Dr. John Yorks hand though I would have rather spot in his face if I coulda done it and gotten away with it... lol)

the only time the crowd made considerable noise is to boo the offense (playcalling, alex, etc.), our fanbase sucks

The 'Stick just isn't that loud, period.

What do you think is the problem?

Same thing as the NY Giants, to many old folks with season tickets. They tend to not yell as loud or as much as younger folk.

I just think there are too many young punks and gangmembers with their girlfriends who aren't watching the damn game who don't know anything about football.

I was screaming my head off! back off me, bro

Sounded pretty quite too me judging by TV. A few times the crowd tried the D-Fense chant and the PA or the 49er drummers (whoever it is) starts it (the pounding) too early and by the time the time they are up to the line it has died out. Props to those of you that put effort into it though. Still wish it was more like Pittsburgh, Green Bay, etc and was an actual home field advantage. I know the 9ers play better at home but it's partly because of travel and not having early games but the crowd doesn't seem to help as much as it should. The fans definitely get loud for prime time games but you would think opening day would be worthy. I wish I wasn't in WI or I would be there helping you guys out.

This.

I haven't been to a game in awhile, but on TV, it's always the same, the crowd is louder when we're on Offense than when we're on Defense. The only time they make some real noise is when they're booing Alex or the Niners in general. It's embarassing and it pisses me off.

No kidding. Sad that the loudest we've been was chanting for Carr.

Why don't you go then? Honestly, if fans that want it to be louder don't go they shouldn't complain.

This. And many people left before ginns. Kick return. Then bailed after it. And after the PR, you would think they were already kneeling down. It sucked leaving. Because they forced you to leave before traffic cleared up.

Made the comment to my girl as i was watching. candlestick straight up blows (no pun) when it comes to crowd noise. Soft as blankets.

I was sitting in the North Endzone (upper deck) and it was quiet lol... hardly anybody stood up.

I was sitting right next to this idiot who, after the first 3 and out, started chanting "bring back Singletary" everybody turned around and looked at him like WTF?!?!? I wanted to die right then and there. Everytime it was 3rd and short and the offense would run the ball he would say, "Oh yeah, thats definitely 1st, definitely a first, yup thats gotta be a first down..." when it obviously wasnt, and 9 times out of ten it wouldnt be.

Then this group of women in front of us would stand up just about any time there was a decent play... a 15 yard pass, a first down, a sack, etc.... it was great. Then this f**ker would make snide little comments to his buddy about how he couldnt see what was going because people kept standing up. (even though he stood up for more bathroom/food breaks than I could keep track of)

Niner fans annoy me
