Nice work, Link. The Whiners are one of those sneaky teams we don't want to overlook after a big win. SF is a great town. I was there after the quake, during the SF-Denver SB. We also went up to SC, and enjoyed the coast. Have a great time, fellas

I am riled already and can't wait to see the 49ers get pummeled. All that grief when the Saints lost close games, time after time after time. Geaux Saints!

Make that 4 pages of 49er hate


I don't have as much hate for the 49ers (not like my current hate for the chump Bears - WORST NFC CHAMPION IN THE HISTORY OF THE NFL), mainly because it has always been competitive, meaningful games with our boys. In fact, I dare say that we gave them their best competition twice a year during those SB runs with Walsh & Seifert.

But just because there's not much hate there doesn't mean I haven't suffered or forgetten:

I Wish
 

I'd love to make the game. I'm not taking my annual trip to the West Coast to visit family during the Summer, so I'm going to miss San Francisco. I love the bay.

The 49'ers, though, eff 'em!
